Snowshoe Season Has Begun

Ice Storm '13 30 103 (1024x683)

Over vacation, snowshoe season began.  Cookie and I blazed a trail through the campground woods and along the lake’s edge. But we weren’t the first to cut a path through the newly fallen snow.

The fox had been through before us.  He followed our hiking trail and circled the frozen over muskrat hut a couple times.  I saw no signs that he’d caught anything though.

And of course, I aimed my camera everywhere . . .

With snow in the forecast again, I’m looking forward to more snowshoeing over the coming weekend!
