Hiking in Fanhestock
We didn’t quite intend to do 9 miles, the last half in a snow storm, when we started out today, but sometimes that’s how it goes. This is especially true when “Horse Trail” apparently means poorly marked washed out river bed. MyTracks on my HTC Hero make a nice gps track of our adventures.
