Trip Report/Photos

Although it was a nice hike, on a day filled with sun (great to get some fresh air and sun shine on my face), a few guys backed out or didn't show at all.  We found some different areas to explore, chatted with the ice fisherfolk, and were amazed by the number of pines that were down due to storm Sandy.  The few of us that did show enjoyed a very nice lunch afterwards with some great conversation and laughs.
