Dan Dreisinga and I led a brief (everyone was freezeing) training on using Avenza and FarOut mapping apps.
Then we headed out. Basically, there were two groups- the six-mile hikers and the three-mile hikers. We did this at the Bowman Semi-Primitive Area which is one of my favorite local hikes. It's hilly, and it has glacial features including the lake!
Most of the leaves are down, but beech trees hang on longer, sometimes all winter. And the sun came out, making us shed out outer layers and cheering up the forest.
One of the most fun things for me is that Bob and Bill showed up! It was SO much fun to see them and spend time with them.
And the hike isn't all. I think I'll show you what we did after that tomorrow. Tomorrow will need to be a good solid work day since I played all day today.

You had a nice turn out for the day. Love the picture of the trees and the leaf covered trail.
thanks, Ann!
