One of our fave things to do in the mountain snow is to shoe through it. There is no better way to commune with nature in the cold then to escape on paths less traveled.
But don't get me wrong, it isn't a nice leisurely stroll and at times it is heart-pounding work. Luckily the picturesque views are numerous, allowing for multiple rest stops.
Now THOSE are trees...
And you must take time to stop and hug the cedars...
Wow, look at the lake!
McGruber! Don became McGruber (if you haven't seen that SNL skit, you are missing out) as he tried and tried again to fix Dave's busted up snowshoe.
Poor Dave...
Should we really hike up this former avalanche area? Sure, why not?
Because it isn't much fun. But it is fun to slide back down.
Life is Good!
