We only did about 2.2 miles, but almost all of it was climbing; at least 2/3.
    It's funny, I have been hiking, skiing, mountain biking, and snow showing in this place, but it looks different for each sport.
    Of course, afterwards we went and had a nice big mocha latte (with skim milk)...
    Oh Robyn, you are so LUCKY! That same snowfall only gave us about 4"....not enough to snowshoe in. Only enough to be a nuisance to have to shovel.

    I'm glad you had a beautiful snowshoe winter wonderland experience though.

    I went snowshoeing today as well since we got a good snowfall yesterday (8-10 inches here). The trails were already pretty well packed down from everyone else having been there first, but it was still nice to get out.

    I am now getting ready to go x country skiing; the snow is so nice that I got up at 6:30 on a Sunday!
    Actually my friend has to be somewhere this afternoon, so we are going to the local x country ski area this morning. That way, I can get ready for work tomorrow in the afternoon . I thought I might be able to get in a quick snow shoe tomorrow afternoon, after work, before acupuncture, but alas, I have a English teacher meeting...
