Well, here I am fresh from another hike. Actually I'm pooped and glad to be sitting. Joe got off work early today. We took advantage of a pretty descent day for November. We still needed to wear sweaters when we got higher on the mountain. At one point we walked into a frost zone. I could see my breath in the air.
Some of the trail was really easy, but like on most of our hikes we got to struggle over large boulders. I guess that just adds to the adventure.
There was one area that was still quite black from a forest fire this summer. It was kind of strange. One side of the trail was burned out while the other side was untouched and just fine. The trail was only about a foot wide.
We're lucky to have so many trails just a few minutes drive from our home. We're trying to use this great asset.
Even after winter hit's we should still be able to use the Bonneville trail on some days' . That one is low on the hillside.

Once again, what a lovely hike! I love the picture of the lake... it looks cold, but peaceful. So fun!
It felt like we were getting a bonus day, as sunny, quite pleasant day!
One more though occurred to me as we passed the lower Bell Canyon Reservoir, here was where Susan directed her rendition of Henry David Thoreau and Walden Pond!
You are right Dadoo! What good memories... good ol' Thoreau!
