Long Wharf snow pile a sign of New Brunswick's bad winter

Remember that awful winter New Brunswick was hit with? Well, some of that snow hasn't disappeared yet.

In Saint John, the remnants of some of the 20,000 truckloads of snow haven't fully melted, as evidenced by the pile located at Long Wharf along the city's harbour. This site was just one of the many snow dumps used by the city.

Up close, the pile is littered with garbage including coffee cups, bricks, bottles and even a pillow.

The snow itself has turned to dark grey, a far cry from the snow white of a winter that seemed so long ago.

In February, the city declared a state of local emergency as it was unable to deal with the amount of snow clogging city streets.

By the end of winter, Saint John's 52-year-old snowfall record was shattered.
