My dear friend Eric had a birthday and instead of taking him to dinner, I thought hmmm why not take him snowshoeing! At first there was hesitance with his reply to my invitation but there was finally a "yes I'll go"! Hooray!
I went over to his house the night before our hike and made sure all equipment was good to go. Don't even get me started on the fact that he had snowshoes WITH TAGS in his possession for the past 7 years! All equipment was ready and I think I finally got a "I'm really excited but nervous" our of him! ha ha
The day started with rain... um where was the snow? During the hike rain fell... still wondering where was the snow? The end of the day... Downpour.. Now thinking.. yep definitely no snow today! But hey there was still snow to shoe on!
At the top of the trail we came across an opening, I of course stuck my head in and went in. Eric not so much. I was in the cave walking around and I hear a "um Suz......." I looked over and I saw his snowshoe he was getting his brave boy pants on and coming in! He makes it through and gives me the "I was out there for quite some time and I got a little nervous" my reply was easy.. "well you should have come in earlier!"
As for this video... Oh dear where do I start!? Well the trail was pretty steep a nice natural "body luge run" is what I thought. So naturally I did what anyone would have done - I tried out the run! Two things about this video is 1) This snow was not soft on my way down! I felt every bump possible as I was heading straight for a stump! 2) Where I did my lil' body roll at the end, just around the snow mound about 5 feet away from me was a huge drop off. Eric didn't approve of any of this! LOL!
