Pilgrim Loop Showshoe

During the winter break, Mike took Amelia & Raymond snowshoeing near Idaho City.  They found a nice loop trail that wandered peacefully through the snow-covered forest.  Mike enjoyed the fresh air and snow.  The kids enjoyed getting back to the car--and a thermos of hot apple cider--as it was about 20 degrees outside that day.

Lucky Peak Snowshoe

During the winter break, Mike took Amelia & Raymond snowshoeing near Idaho City.  They found a nice loop trail that wandered through the snow-covered forest.  Fortunately, it was a short trip, because both of the kids complained about getting cold--it was about 20 degrees
