Old New Hampshire!

So yesterday in the fine state of New Hampshire it was 55 degrees and sunny...today it has snowed 7 or so inches and is about 25. Just the way I like it! On Sunday, Mum, Alli and I went exploring. We decided to hike in southern NH, finding some new trails a bit closer to Manchester. Wilton, NH, specifically the Heald Trail system truly fit the bill. The first thing we saw when exciting the car were large bear tracks! I was excited, but Mum, not so much! We hiked up an old road, with many stone walls bordering the rough and snow covered track. Alli had it right with the snow shoes for much of the trail, but crampons worked fine too. The trails were a bit scattered with debris from the last ice storm, but that did not hinder our progress too much. We saw quite a few more animal tracks such as deer and what appeared to be large fisher prints, yet we did not see any of the animals who made them. We did find some interesting glacial erratics in some odd configurations. Overall, it was a great hike. There is nothing better than being in NH, in the woods, with people you love!
