Snowshoes and Mountains

A carload of us went hiking on Tuesday up this here mountain on the left, and the picture on the right is from the top. I had never been snowshoing before. It was fun! Lots of work, but amazing! On the way up, we had to take lots of small steps because there was a lot of steep areas, but that made it really fun to sled down on the way back. It made me realize how much I'm going to miss the snow while I'm gone to Hawaii. Don't get me wrong, I'll love it there, but I'll just be missing the snow and all that comes with it. There's nothing like sledding down a 500 foot slope on you bum in a foot of powder! I'm sure Kona will have it's perks too...and I can't wait to find them out!
