Spring Break

I took advantage of the warm, sunny afternoon and did some short walks with Howie. First stop was Thatcher Park. There was quite a bit of snow up on the Helderberg escarpment (about 1-2 feet)... especially when compared to down in the valley (virtually none). I didn't venture too far from the parking area....walking in the mushy snow was too much work.

On the way back, I stopped at Whitbeck Preserve. Walked the loop trail (about 1.5 miles). No snow here, but some mud.
Later in the afternoon, I went to Peebles Island and did the loop trail around the island (about 2 miles). Lots of brown, rushing water in the Mohawk river.
