Buck Prairie outing ends season

Mar 10, 2017

—

Another day of sunshine provided us with a beautiful end to our disappointingly short snowshoe season. Unusually cold winter temperatures and my poorly timed broken wrist caused a late start this year. Never mind…our trek today along the Natasha’s Web loop trail at Buck Prairie Winter Recreation Area was well worth the wait. The trail and clear skies rewarded us with an amazing distant view of 9,495 foot Mount McLoughlin as we headed uphill.

With springtime just around the corner, it’s time for carryoncouple to shift it’s focus. Next week, we’ll hitch up the trailer (actually, Reg will hitch it up…I supervise) and head first south, then east as we put our love of the “RV way of life” to the test…stay tuned!

  Ugh…yes, I broke it in January…a souvenir from a Portland visit with Andrew and Leah. As I recall, you can probably relate 😦

Broken wrist? Sky diving or bronco busting?
