Twenty-four intrepid Tramps skied or snowshoed the BREIA trail from a mile and a half south of Pixley Falls State Park to anywhere from one mile to several miles north of the park entrance. It was a brisk, windy, but sunny day with plenty of snow cover. The ski tracks were pretty slick when we started out but softened up as the afternoon wore on.

Following the hike, several of us repaired to Applebee’s for refreshments, while others reconvened at the Boonville Hotel. Great company–great day.

What was to be a Ski or Snowshoe ended up being a hike due to our warm 60 degree temperatures.

Twenty two adventurers walked the 5 mile Black River Canal Towpath avoiding some slippery and muddy spots along the trail.

With Saint Patrick’s Day spirit, we found gold candy and coins along the way and suddenly were accosted by a Leprechaun family of five. They joined us for spectacular views of the numerous waterfalls and enjoyed jumping out at us as we crossed the bridge to the picnic area.

We all departed with a smile on our face after eating shamrock cookies.
