Fun hike even though it was 42 degrees and raining when we started out this morning and the rain kept up. While on Martha's mile we were hit with some sleet! We were steady and kept moving to stay warm. Lots of leaves on the ground covering up mud pits and the rotted bog bridges. A shame we didn't get to enjoy the big vista but we had a darn good time just the same enjoying the trail and forest. No surprise we didn't see anyone else on the trail today. |
