 | Comments: |
I decided to take the herd path on the way up and wore my snow shoes, it was nice to meander through the woods and not run into others. Lots of deer scat and beds. Then into the good part of the climb. Snowshoes were overkill but I am a stubborn girl and wore them to Waumbek. I packed them out and traded to spikes. Fast trails today! What a grin I must have had after the last two days. Three hour Waumbek! Nice to see lots of smiling faces on the trail today. |
