Today our plans to snowshoe were derailed as it poured on Monday and the beautiful fluffy snow
that a few of us snowshoed on Sunday is now icy and crusty! Three of us took advantage of the milder temperatures and nice snow to go out on snowshoes on Columbus Jordan Road on Sunday for a glorious two hours.
Today the normal Wednesday walkers added yak tracs and ski poles to walk on the trails behind the Plainfield School where we normal hike up to the ledges. Today we opted for a less traveled trail known as the switchback trail which is well named. The trail wasn't as icy and we saw the interesting knotted trees that I need to take of photo of next time we are there.
There were eight walkers and 3 dogs today. The weather was sunny and though cold, about 8 degrees at 10 AM as we started an hour later, the wind had died down and it was very nice on the trails. We were out for an hour and a half but went at a slow pace because of the conditions.
No photos again!
