Finally
a dose of real winter. Last Thursday central Massachusetts received about an
inch of wet snow, then an ice covering. very poor snow for tracking. I did head
out for a late morning hike that day only to find a few deer tracks. A few
weeks back I did find a bear track in a patch of snow. Weatherman reporting
possible snow storm next week. If so, possibly an opportunity to snowshoe. I’ll
need to watch and see how many inches this storm may leave. I have a number of
camera taps set close to the ground and will need to raise or pull them in
before the storm.
My
Quabbin hiking quest is nearing completion. I have about forty five miles to go
before reaching 5.000 total miles hiked in this area. Once I reach that 5k mile
goal, I’ll focus more on sitting watching for wildlife with my camera
