The local beaver showing off his wood carving skills.
Today was a good day to change up the river travels... switching from pedal power to snowshoes. Gotta keep it well rounded in our travels, this is good for the fat tire bike trails that don't get many bikes in the winter. Snowshoes can pack in the singletrack trail. Plus it slows ya down so ya can check out the surroundings at a slower pace.
I'm hiking the Atlas mountain climbing snowshoes and Weez is sporting her brand new MSR Revo Ascent snowshoes. Ours are both 25" long, hers are a bit narrower, women specific. We are both using Black Diamond / Triple collapse poles. this is the snowshoe/pole setup that we use on our backcountry mountain trips. Good to use and test our equipment in a more controlled environment like this, plus we are packing in the bike trail. The bonus is that we are improving our fitness for the mountain trips in March and April.
The beavers sure left a mess on the river bank...
Here's lookin' at ya till next time. Snowshoe on!
