We have had a stretch of bad weather for hiking with lots of ice. This morning the sun was shining with temperatures around freezing so we went to this nearby trail to check conditions.
Still lots of snow in the parking area
and along the stream
but the trail was well packed snow with excellent footing - just off the trail you were in knee deep snow.
Both dogs seemed happy to be out.
The stream was not completely frozen over
At that point we turned back - Kelley waiting for us.
Almost back.
A very pleasant little hike which both dogs seemed to enjoy, as did I

Lovely day for a walk! We even got snow here in Portland, Oregon yesterday.
