Since we had sunshine and the day off of school and work, we went snowshoeing again. We tried The Summit at Snoqualmie and really enjoyed the trails and scenery there. I had not been on a chair lift in awhile and I decided that I really didn't like it. I'm not one to be afraid of heights usually, but it seemed like we could have so easily fallen out of that chair!! I braced myself behind the pole!! : D
This was a better snowshoeing experience than the last time that we went. Last time, a muscle in my left groin was really aching. This time it hurt less. I think this was due to a shorter snowshoeing time (2 hours as opposed to 3.5 hours), using poles to bear some of the weight, and more firmly packed snow so that I didn't have to lift my legs as high when I walked.
I didn't realize how super poofy my hair was until I saw the top-right picture! Ha! There's a hood under there...but still!

Next time we plan to go cross-country skiing. The last time that I did that was about 12 years ago and I didn't have a very good experience. I have snowboarded, but have never downhill skied. It should be an interesting experience!
