FABULOUS FOOTHILLS

We're back in the groove!

Hikers: Kim, Amy, Juta and HopE

Time: 8:40 am- 9:30 am

Trail: Bald Mountain Foothills

Weather: overcast, 30˚ f

Notes: About 4 inches of new snow covered lots of thick slush to make hiking quite a workout. The snow-covered landscape was beautiful and so was the misty view of the valley. A great day to get back into the hiking groove.

SANPETE FOOTHILLS

AMY'S NOTES: This is post #101. A really cold but beautiful late afternoon walk. Smitten with the light and fresh snow. A busted knee and a sick dog makes for slow walking. Call it a meander. Hope is the only one with any agility to speak of these days and she certainly has enough for all. The first big snow of winter. Soft, powdery, Utah snow. And the warm yellow light of the desert in december. The dogs love it - it's what Bernese Mountain dogs were bred for. They are utterly in their element.
