1st Snowshoe of the Season

Today we had a small winter storm come through that brought us about 5 inches of very light, fluffy, almost powdered sugar looking snow. This finally gave us a good enough base to get out and play. So, I look advantage of a couple free hours late in the afternoon to head out the Lake Minnewashta. I was originally going to cross-country ski but the trails were not groomed yet, so I decided to snowshoe instead. The snow was perfect, even though there was a strong wind and the temp dropped from 17 to 6 while I was out. I had the whole park to my self. It was really peaceful to be floating along through a winter wonderland.

Warm clothes are the Best!
