Overlook

I did a short hike up Overlook mountain in the Catskills today. Got to the trailhead and started up the jeep trail. Easy walking on packed powder snow under sunny skies. Passed an intrepid fellow skiing down. By the time I reached the top, it had clouded up considerably. It was a bit nippy ... the tube on my Camelback had frozen solid and Howie was getting snow/ice crystals on his underside. I didn't hang around too long and headed back down. Then, the sun decided to come back out and scare away the clouds.
