Friday Wanderings


I really didn't do much outdoors last week - not that the weather didn't *scream* to be outside. Simply, we had enough snow to make everything soggy or icy. By Friday I figured all but the shady northern slopes would have melted and so I took the girls for a walk.

We didn't pick any new trails or venture off on a long hike. I did the three mile hike from Inspiration point into Grassy Hollow and about a mile past there, looping back to GH on the Jackson Flat road. It gives me enough up and downs to enjoy it the scenery and still work the muscles. Penelope did okay, despite some snowy areas. Much more snow and she's just not able to tolerate it with her miniature paws.

It was clear out to Rancho, and the views of the desert on the dry side were fantastic. I love when the temp dips to the 40's and the sun still shines. It was a lovely day to be in the mountains and fresh air. I truly hope to get out more this next week.

See it on Runkeeper

I think I'll head to Canada...
