We did this last year in a raging snowstorm. Only three people showed up, but it was still fun. So this year it was bitter cold, but we got seven people. Again, lots of seasonal cheer and brotherly love. But it was hard to hear conversations with all those hats, hoods, and face masks. We left just a few minutes after 6pm. I was cold, so apparently the pace was a little fast. But I warmed up and we slowed down to a more genteel pace. After the first couple hundred feet, we donned out snowshoes. |
