Hard Slogging on the Trail

    While our heavy snow has been beautiful, it has really made walking our loop trail more difficult.  The photo above shows the section of trail that runs atop our dam.  (That’s the trail in the middle of the photo.)  All of the young trees on both sides have been bent down by the heavy snow.  Several sections of the trail looked like this and I had to stop, shake the trees, (which often covered me with snow) before I could proceed through the tangle.

    I was pretty exhausted by the time I got back to the house.  Kona wasn’t really impacted by the stooped trees, she was able to walk right under the snow-ladened arches.

    I was glad I walked the trail though because I did get a couple of photos that I liked.  (Below)
