Snowshoeing has become our daily exercise. It burns up masses of calories and is a great aerobic workout. We finally figured out the most efficient way to put on the shoes and trek our way around. I have fallen twice: once tripping over a tree trunk and the second, Mark brushed by me (not on purpose really) and down I went. No big deal except to get back up. The powdery snow is DEEP. The ravine photo is where family saw bear claw marks in aspen trees this summer. Remember Krissy, Katie, & James? Wonder where the bear are taking their big winter sleep...
The coyote and/or fox continue to walk in our tracks every day. They've even taken to marking their territory. Little pee dribbles are happening at spots all along the way. When we leave, the animals are in for a shock as the Adams highway disappears...
Went in town today and have had snow showers all over the place. Saw two car accidents - one in town across from WalMart which knocked an electric pole askew and the other a car going off the road down into a ditch on Ohio Creek Rd. It doesn't take a lot before the roads are tricky it seems. Saw a stream of cars headed to Gunnison from Crested Butte. Think it's the holiday crowd leaving town today. The holidays sure came & went in a whirlwind!
