Run in Snow

Last night was our first snow of the season. 2 1/2-3 inches. My footprints were the first human tracks on the trail this morning.

All the branches in the understory were coated with snow. Sun peeked out at intervals to create the prism effect. Lots of deer tracks leading to the creek. Seven miles in the snow. Startled up sparrows on the grasslands, a gaggle of 100 or so geese huddled on a thin ice island in the middle of the lake.

Winds pick up heading north across the bridge. Seven miles and wishing there were more.
