Adventure XXVII

Type of Adventure: Snowshoe hike

Date of Adventure: Friday, 30 Jan. 2009

Place of Adventure: Shrewsbury, PWMA

Length of Adventure, miles: 2.25

Length of Adventure, hours: 2

Weather: Temps in the upper 20's, overcast, flurries turning into light snow showers. 1-2 feet of fresh snow on the ground.

Companion(s): Colyn

Other Adventurers Encountered: 4 cross country skiiers, several snowmobile transporting vehicles, although none of the actual snowmobiles.

Notes: 1. I finally managed to complete the loop that I've attempted twice before. 2. We got first tracks in the fresh snow. It was rough going, but we made it. 3. I really need to complete my hiking gear. I need gators for my snowshoes, wool pants to keep me warmer. I also need an extra mini maglight, swiss army knife, first aid kit, and matches for my backpack.
