Snow Shoeing At Mt. Adams

Sun, 19 Mar 2006 23:59:59 -800

Today, Lara, Eliza, Dave and I set out to go snow shoeing somewhere around Mt.
Adams. Somebody picked out the Eagle Loop trail, but the four of us quickly
decided to go off-trail and head towards a big lake. Unfortunately,
the lake
turned out to be a huge clear-cut lot that had been covered with snow; had we
gone in the summertime, this area would have been hideously ugly (c.f. the
pictures of the ). Since we had
only our eyes and a GPS to track our travels, I cannot give a precise tale of
where we went, other than to say that we went roughly southwest down to the
first clearcut, southwards through the area, then east up a ridge for lunch.
Then we went back roughly along the same route, had dinner at the 6th Street
Bistro, and went home.
