Great weather day to be above treeline. The ammo was punched out by bare booters. Some drifts and a little ice to. But snowshoes were in use most of the day. Good walk alone the ridge with the track loosing the trail at times. Heavy snow drifts and post holing even with snowshoes made it a challenge at times but not to bad. Saw many out enjoying the day once at Eisenhower and to pierce. Saw some late starters on the Crawford path. Down to mt. Clinton rd. below treeline realizing i lost everything I worked so hard for. I walked Clinton rd. to the base rd. where I parked wishing I was spent a little more time there and enjoyed things a little more. Some day I will get it right. |
