    Ha ha that is funny I will try to keep my eyes out for the next time I head toward that site thanks for that heads up BIC . Love your YouTube videos by the way I often watch them before I go on a section .

    Sorry to say no pictures of the sites. I had to abort mission. I made a number of rookie mistakes. It was dark when arriving, shovel, no snowshoes. When walking off the path to the first site, number three, the snow was literally about 2.5 feet deep, it was just far too difficult for me to even attempt to be out there. Oh well, I learned many things, mostly by mistakes made.

    Future successes are won on the shoulders of mistakes...or something like that. Hope you were able to salvage some fun in spite of the circumstances.

    best way to learn... way to get out there and do it! I couldn't imagine trying to climb that hill out of Crosby in 2.5' of snow :O

    Yes indeed, that park is truly majestic. Just the smell of that forest once you get a few feet in. The stars were so bright it were almost as if I could jump up and grab them. I only hiked about maybe 2.5 miles total, but it was a grueling treck. Lots learned!
