Frozen Steppes

It took me two hours (counting 3 bathroom stops - couldn't believe the library was open!) to walk 3 miles. It's not a pedestrian world out there. The sidewalks are piled high with snow, gusty winds blow more snow around, frostbite is a real possibility and non-icy spots are in short supply. Surprisingly, I saw more than a handful of people out walking, including one man walking his energetic, snow-loving dog!

I will skip the group snowshoe tomorrow at CaƱada Bonita. Last year when I went, it was very windy as soon as we hit the meadow. I had enough wind tonight. Besides, I have to get up early Thursday and Friday so tomorrow is another slothful day of sleeping in!
