The snow looked like it was hard packed but it was only about a foot wide that was everytime someone would pass by the trail I sank at least knee deep but that is the best part of it all! So much fun winter hiking on a beautiful day. A lot of sun and a lot of snow at @rockynps this weekend. Had an absolute blast getting up there and enjoy some of the most beautiful spots in the world. This week's #Sundayselfie looks like I'm walking the wrong way because I was! I had just finished a 3 mile snowshoe and found myself on this Ridge. When the snow drifts are this high I turn around. The trail I was thinking about going on was somewhere through/under that drift but I decided to pass on that one. Happy Friday Everyone! The mountains were trying to stand out the other day but it was nice to see a decent base of snow down closer to the city as well! Not sure what to say about this one. Trail covered in a couple feet of snow, trees green as ever, and the sky is blue. Can't beat it! This was cool today at Whitw Ramch open space. I could see down the canyon and out to North Table Mountain and lined up perfectly past that was the city of Denver! Always fun to see how small the city looks from a differwnt perspective. This was so cool in real life but not sure about on camera but the snow had been blown so hard that this drift that at points was about twelve feet high had these amazing layers and waves and lines. It was very cool and was like looking at a still picture of ocean waves but in real life. Hopefully it comes through that way on the picture. I am a little late to the party tonight but it was such a beautiful day I spent a few extra minutes in the woods.
