11/6/14 Walden

Printer still not working so no map

Gray and 30's with rain in the forecast.  ( more rain for tomorrow) Back to nearby Walden with a little different route- following Kelley's lead

She took us on a side trail that led to this pond but it had a thin skin of ice along the shore so she would not enter.

Back to the Loop Trail and out to the old rail bed. A section we didn't do last time. This part is less open and had a lot more storm damage. Lots of work arounds.

Kelley spotted water running across an old woods road so we went down to it. 

Another pond with a skin of ice along the shore

and some Lichen

We got in 2 hours without getting rained on, there was lots of water for Kelley, and a pretty good hike in spite of working around all the fallen trees- and getting very wet feet.
