 The days of 3 or 4 signing up for one of Paul’s hikes are long gone.  There has been an uptick in participation, with Saturday being no exception.  Nine showed up for another roll of the dice adventure. 

Sunday Lake was the scheduled destination, but due to parking issues, that wasn’t going to be the case.  So, the decision was made to park down at Stillwater Reservoir and snowshoe from there.  As you can see, we snowshoed across the reservoir.  If it could hold up the three planes and the snowmobiles, we were safe.  

We hiked about 2.5 mile on the reservoir, it was like driving on the thruway, monotonous!  Once in the woods, it was picturesque with all the snow.  We make it to Cranberry Pond.  A soft mutiny formed when Paul suggested we continue onward, to another pond on the map.  He reluctantly conceded to the group, who didn’t want to walk the lake out with headlamps.  8 miles was a good day on snowshoes.
