Lady Hikers in the Snow!

Today we hiked at Fort Benjamin Harrison after a 3-4" snowfall early this morning.

The park was beautiful - the line at the admission gate was long,

and the destination for most people was the new sledding hill.

We only saw a couple of other people as walked the Fall Creek Trail,

the Camp Creek Trail and the Lawrence Creek Trail for a total of about 5 miles.

The woods were quiet and blanketed with snow, in places covering a thick layer of ice (ask Durena).

We were fortunate to see a red-tailed hawk as well as several snowmen.

We went for coffee afterwards and discussed our summer plans.
