Clearing trees along the trail. New Steepdshot app test.
Out for a hike with the dogs. I haven't been along this path in a few weeks and there are a number of trees down. My trusty SOG makes short work of them though.
I have more pictures from the hike but I'm testing the new steepshot app with this one.
Beautiful, I love the view, i wish I could see the full view
I love winter hiking! There's just something about the whole atmosphere that makes it so peaceful!
Cheers.
The snow is perfect right now. It's only about ankle deep so it's actually nice to walk through without snow shoes.
Oh man that sounds awesome! I love being able to see all the different footprints in the snow from all the animals. You get to have a tiny bit of a glimpse into where they come from and where they go and where they stop etc. I'd say winter hiking is for sure one of my favourite activities :D
I'm still trying to get the courage to go out on a legit solo overnight winter backpacking trip (or to find someone that's willing to come with me) but I don't have a ton of gear so I'm slowly working towards acquiring some.
For now I'm sticking to short trips through the awesome river valley trails in my city (not the same as being out in the wilderness but it sure beats not going at all).
Cheers

Severe looking axe. I liked the old What-a-saw I used to have to cut through the big stuff, mostly because I’m too lazy to be swinging an axe. I’ll welcome the snow when it gets here, but I still am seeing people out in shorts in Halifax. They have started flooding the Oval though, so skating should not be too far off.
Cool Axe! I'm going to follow you for a while :)
