BOONE, N.C. — Winter’s bluster blanketed the High Country the morning of Jan. 3, ushering in 2022 with several inches of heavy snow that turned Appalachian State University’s Boone campus into a world of white.

University photographer Chase Reynolds endured wind gusts of up to 35 mph and a wind chill of 12 degrees Fahrenheit to capture the App State winter scenes shown in the above gallery — from snow-covered campus landmarks to an icy Duck Pond.

Check out these App State webcams for live, frosty views of campus.
