 | Comments: |
Winter has arrived! Negative wind chill and spitting snow all day, that accumulated to a few inches by day’s end. Majority of earlier snow fall beaten down but the top several inches very powdery and unconsolidated. Used snowshoes out and back to flatten out the rototilled path. Poles helpful on the steeps to North. Path to Middle well travelled with minimal snow drifts, and only one set of footprint headed towards South. Overall a day spent in a winter wonderland ( #16 & 17 of winter 48).
