Five Rivers in the First Snow

Two Sundays ago I decided to go for an hour hike at Five Rivers. Nothing fancy, I just wanted to try out my snowshoes for the year, get a little pratice, and get some pictures of the first fluffy white snow of the year.

It was a cloudy day, a pretty quiet day. There was a lot of people out walking around, and in many places the trail was quite slushy.

Some of the ponds at Five Rivers where very much frozen for the first time this year.

The trees where all covered with a pretty layer of snow, as seen with this pine tree against a grey sky.

As I walked around the back field it was truly a beautiful winter wonderland.

Heading past the DEC Barn off the North Loop Trail / DEC road.

Here is a map of the route, in pink.
