Augusta : Crews Perform Cold Weather Rescue of Injured Hiker In Mountains

Augusta : Crews Perform Cold Weather Rescue of Injured Hiker In Mountains

August County, Virginia
Near The Blue Ridge Parkway

If you could pick one of the worst days to become injured and needing rescue, this past Sunday would have been the day. High winds and extremely cold temperatures had wind chills later in the day near zero in the mountains.

The injured hiker was able to get a 911 text out for help just after 5:30 Sunday morning. The ability to get that text out was probably life saving, but the rescue was far from over and would last hours.

Wintergreen Fire & Rescue picks up the details of how it all unfolded and the successful rescue in their Facebook post below. Click there to read the entire story and see more photos. Even if you don’t have Facebook you can view the link.

Job well done by all of the agencies involved!

VDOT : Weather Impact On Road Conditions Overnight Saturday Into Sunday AM

 

 

Light snow may impact travel across parts of the Culpeper District
CULPEPER —  A round of winter weather is forecast to move into the Culpeper District late Saturday evening, bringing light snow that may affect overnight and early-morning travel. Snow is expected to begin after midnight and continue into early Sunday, with accumulations varying across the region.

Current forecasts call for 1 to 1.5 inches of snow in the northern portion of the district. Most other areas are expected to receive around 1 inch. Even light snowfall may create slick conditions, particularly on bridges, ramps and mountain passes, which tend to freeze first.

VDOT crews will be mobilized across the district Saturday night to monitor conditions, treat roadways, and respond as needed.

Motorists traveling Saturday night into Sunday morning should remain weather-aware and prepared for changing road conditions:

  • Reduce speed and increase following distance.
  • Be mindful of VDOT snowplows and equipment and give crews room to work.
  • Use extra caution on bridges, ramps, and mountain passes, which freeze first.
  • Check 511 Virginia for real-time road conditions through to your destination before traveling.

Local updates about conditions in VDOT’s Culpeper District are posted onX.com/VaDOTCulp and the Culpeper District Facebook page.

Current traffic conditions, VDOT’s statewide network of traffic cameras, and other travel information are available on the 511Virginia website, the free VDOT 511 mobile app, or by calling 511 from any phone in Virginia.

VDOT’s Culpeper District includes the counties of Albemarle, Culpeper, Fauquier, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, Madison, Orange and Rappahannock. The independent city of Charlottesville maintains its own roads.

Good Night Jimmy K (Updated 12.22.25 With Memorial Service & Funeral Info)

Nellysford
Nelson County, Virginia

By Tommy Stafford 

Updated immediately below with service info for Jimmy on January 17, 2026.

Original story – 12.08.25
I’ve written many of these over the past 22 years of making Nelson my permanent home. Some hurt more than others. But all matter. This one really hurts. A lot.

Many, many years ago Jimmy Koschara sat across the table from me in the old Margaritas Restaurant in Nellysford, tears swelling up in his eyes. Life had taken a hard turn. I remember, sort of, walking through this with him over the months ahead and eventually seeing him come out the other side. It’s what you do when someone is your friend. It was just one of many challenges he overcame.

I actually knew Jimmy’s dad, also Jim, first.

We did a story with Jimmy’s father, Jim, back in June 2005 at the Rockfish Airpark south of Nellysford. He’d already been a part of the Nelson community for over 2 decades back then. Click on the photo above to go to that issue and read, page 36.
Jimmy was a real local. There he is with his good friend, another generational local, Shelton Dodd. They both came out to a large party here in August of 2025.

Jimmy was real Nelson. Local. He knew the history, and the people.

Jimmy there on the left with his long time local friend, Chastity Morgan. Jimmy always made time for his friends. This was at a surprise birthday party for Chas back in March 2025. Shelton and Chas, above, are but two of the dozens and dozens of Jimmy’s friends. He hardly knew a stranger.

A few years ago Jimmy stopped me in the old Wintergreen Hardware store and told me, “I have some bad news.” He had cancer. Jimmy wasn’t a guy to sit around, ever. He was active in the forestry service for years. Even in semi retirement he would go on missions out west when the big fire hit and they needed manpower. He even did some work while taking treatment. He was also a Class B general contractor, almost everyone knew him from that.

Jimmy beat his cancer eventually. It was brutal. But he made it. Then, it came back. The second time wasn’t as forgiving. It spread, slowed down, then sped up, and sometime in the late summer and fall of this year the obvious outcome was staring Jimmy squarely in the face. He approached it with grace, sometimes fright. But with character. He lived his final months as he wanted and enjoyed what time he had left.

Jimmy often spoke to me about anything a man would worry over as he knew his time here was coming to an end. His family mostly. Will they be ok? “I want them to be able to get over me not being here,” he once told me. He knew life goes on and as long as people could remember him with a smile most days, that would be a win.

Jimmy’s fancy camp chair on the bridge he oversaw being built back in the summer. His son, Hunter, and fellow carpenter Troy finished it up in early August 2025.

If you’ve been in Nelson any length of time, you’d be hard pressed to forget Jimmy. He will be easy to remember. Many of us have a piece of his and his family’s craftsmanship left behind as a legacy. Just this past summer Jimmy oversaw the construction of a marvelous wooden bridge that crosses our creek. We wanted it to look like it had been here for years and years. Not something that didn’t belong. He and his son made it happen. Ironically, that’s one of the last projects Jimmy was able somewhat be a part of before his health really started failing. We have, appropriately, named it The Jimmy Bridge. It will have a bronze placard put on it in his memory.

Yvette with Jimmy at his son, Hunter’s wedding in June of 2025. Yvette, was even closer to Jimmy than I was. As a realtor she was constantly coordinating building projects on properties with him. A good team for years.

We got the call Sunday morning December 7th that Jimmy probably wouldn’t make it. Yvette rushed to go see him one last time. Just a couple of weeks before Christmas his tired body fighting cancer gave up. Jimmy crossed over his own bridge just like the countless ones he’d built for so many other people during the years.

There’s Jimmy on the right in his fancy camp chair at our Brunswick stew get together in front of the barn back in early October 2025. On the left are our neighbors and friends, Anne Ferguson and to her left Tym Fleckenstein. One of Jimmy’s longtime friends Greg Lipscomb of Beech Grove walking on the right where Peyton is sitting.

The last time I saw Jimmy in person was in the early fall of this year. We’d put together a little Brunswick stew cookout in front of the barn here on the farm. Jimmy wasn’t moving well and was pretty sick and beat up from treatments, but he drove out for a little while. He wanted to see friends. This was but a handful of them, but good ones. I didn’t even get to say goodbye that afternoon. Peyton and I had taken the side by side to go get some firewood. We waved at Jimmy as he was headed down the driveway to go back home and rest. That was my last time to see Jimmy. Sort of apropos, one final wave.

Oddly, I think Jimmy might have known that was the last time we’d see each other. He  would always bring his very fancy camp chair to the farm anytime we’d have a get together. He left it that day and later told me by phone, “You keep that chair in the barn. It belongs there now.”

I got some texts back and forth from Jimmy over the next few weeks, but they became more infrequent. The last one he sent was, “One day at a day at a time Tommy. I miss y’all.”

We miss you already Jimmy. Still have that restaurant gift card you gave us from last Christmas. Think we might just use that in the coming days, in your memory.

Ride high my friend, you’re pain free now.

I’m sure there will be a remembrance for Jimmy in the coming weeks. Once I know more and have additional obit info, I’ll update it here.

First Snow Hits The Blue Ridge : Wintergreen Resort Officially Opens Season

First Snow Hits The Blue Ridge : Wintergreen Resort Officially Opens Season

Central Virginia Blue Ridge
Nelson County, Virginia

As expected, the first legitimate snow of the coming winter season began falling during the early morning hours Friday. Accumulations were a touch higher than anticipated. Not a terrible snow to travel in, but enough to make it challenging and cause a few accidents across the area. Most people are reporting between 3 to 4 inches of snow with locally higher amounts especially in the mountains.

Ironically the first snow for the season fell on the exact day Wintergreen Resort opens for the 2025-2026 ski and boarding season.

Photo By Peyton Stafford : The snow was ideal for putting everyone in the Christmas spirit! – Friday – December 5, 2025.

Most schools across the area closed and even some universities closed or modified their schedules.

Though it feels like winter with all of the snow, winter doesn’t officially begin by the calendar for several more days. It officially starts on December 21st at 10:03 AM.
