On Sunday we joined Mark's gang for a "hike" on the Monk's trail near Eagle River. This is unusual for us, because the snow here is rarely firm enough for a adventure like this without snowshoes or skis.
 |
| I was told to sit here and wait. I am overly social, so this was pretty hard! |
 |
| Me and Bella are off! |
 |
| Which way should we go? |
 |
| We inspected the trout pond. What do ya think Dave?! |
 |
| I think I'll have a drink of snow. |
 |
| The underground spring warmed the ground and made that cool design in the snow. |
 |
| At Jacob's Creek gorge. |
 |
| Got some for me, Greg? |
 |
| Me and Bella vied for Lisa's attention... |
 |
| ...and Mark's... |
 |
| ...and Kim's! |
 |
| We hiked down stream. |
 |
| As they looked at the lake, I took a refreshing snow bath. |
 |
| This hard snow is good for snout rubbing, too. |
 |
| Little open water maybe?? Or just some puddles anyway. |
 |
| Lisa swears she's gonna have more adventure this year. |
 |
| I stayed safely away from the edge of the torrent. |
 |
| Now we're at the Arnold Mine ruins. |
 |
| Few poor rock piles poking through. |
 |
| We had such a nice romp here today. |
 |
| On the drive home...the lake shore reminded us of a moon scape! |
