An unexpected trailhead temperature of -17 made for very brief introductions and a flimsy welcome for new member Michael. Luckily it warmed up really fast and this did not turn into a cold hike.
We took a new trail combination: Snowshoe Hare West (not the usual East leg), Demi-Tel, Reconnect and then looped back via Old Shell Road and West Crystal for 10.4 km and 350 m elevation gain hike.
Thanks to everybody for another lovely day in the sun.
Participants: Madeleine, Tom, Carl, June, Carolyn, Douglas, Bill, Glenda, Michael and happy dog Chester.
