Last week, I checked out a snowshoe spot suggested by a BDN reader and outdoorsman. As many people will be able to guess from the white blazes in the photos, this hike is along a famous trail, and I certainly didn’t snowshoe from end to end. Try to guess the section I did snowshoe with hiking buddy Derek by viewing the photos below. Leave your best guesses in the comment section below. Winners gets an internet high five, a mention in the updated post and the gift of feeling awesome on Monday. Also, stay tuned for the “1-minute hike” video and write-up about this snowshoe, which will be posted tomorrow (Tuesday).
-
- A moose track!
-
- This should tell you a little something about the trail.
-
- Deer track, to compare to that moose track.
-
- Much of the trail was uphill on the way in, and the snow was yet to be packed down by snowshoes.
-
- Every once in a while, we came upon some big trees.
-
- A strange boulder than caught my eye.
-
- Does this photo make anyone else laugh? Or is it just me?
-
- Derek Runnells looks at two fallen trees that obstruct the trail on Jan. 10, 2013. It appears that one big tree took down the other.
-
- Every once in a while we found big trees and I hugged them… just to show how big they are.
-
- Ou est le toilette?
-
- Lean-to
-
- MATC sign…
-
- The chief destination of the snowshoe, a pond. Obviously we did not walk out on the ice. It looks like an animal already tried that. :/
