It was great to get out of town and enjoy the limited snowfall so far this year. The snowshoe to the yurt is a little over 2 miles. On the way in, there was maybe a foot of snow total, quite old and crusty. Fortunately, for us, a storm moved through while we were at the yurt and dropped about 6 inches. The extra fresh snow made sledding more exciting and the hike out pretty spectacular.
(we also wrote an earlier post about a visit to the same yurt which contains a map)
