We have had 3 days of rain. sleet, freezing rain, and snow and just did short walks in the hood. This morning it was overcast but not raining so a hike was a must but - lots of ice around - takes two or three tries to get up my drive. This trail is very near so easy to check out.
Gate at the start
What a great surprise no one had been on the trail recently and it was very firm and not icy. We were both very happy.
Acorn cap
Less ice in the stream
Kelley finds some water
and more
About where we turned around
We had met two snowmobilers so the track was no longer pristine but there was more water
Small stream we cross at start and finish
I was dreading hiking today and it turned out to be excellent. Kelley did very well and we even got a little sun. 1 1/2 hours
Any day in the woods is a good day!
ReplyDeleteWell, mostly, ice is not nice
DeleteSo glad you had good conditions to walk in. This winter has been difficult, to say the least!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend
Hi Sue - thanks terrible winter so far which made yesterday so nice. You have a good weekend too.
DeleteJohn, every time I see Kelley in that freezing cold water, I have to go put another sweater on! ;-)
