My brother-in-law Trent told me about a snowshoeing trail less than five minutes from my front door (it actually takes me longer to put on my snow boots than it does to drive to the trailhead) and I have certainly taken advantage of it! I have already gone several times and I absolutely love the fresh air up in the mountains. I got up early yesterday (a day off from school for MLK Day) and spent several hours on the trail. It was so quiet and peaceful. In fact, the only other person I saw was a guy that I have seen on the trail before. He recognized me and talked to me for a while and then eventually went ahead of me because he was a lot faster. Ha ha! It makes me so happy that I can be in the great outdoors doing things I love, like snowshoeing, in mere minutes! I am also looking forward to hiking this trail in the spring and summer.
