Out West in February

On a sunny, sorta warm Monday in February, we headed out west for a drive to The Hummingbird and Ram Falls. Armed with cross-country skis for Brian, snowshoes for me, and lunch, we had a glorious afternoon!!

We drove in to Peppers Lake, but dang it, I forgot to take photos! 😕

We got a little ways up The Hummingbird before we had to turn around … the road isn’t plowed up there and there hadn’t been much traffic. We sure didn’t want to get stuck someplace without cell service and without a soul in sight to help us!

Here are a couple photos from up the road into The Hummingbird …

After going into The Hummingbird, we headed back to Ram Falls. Here are some photos from a wee ways upstream of Ram Falls …

Then we skied (Brian) and snowshoed (me) out to the walkway over-looking Ram Falls. It was windy that day … in this first photo you can see snow blowing off the peaks in the distance, especially on the left side of the sun.

It was a short ski/walk, but lovely to get out and get some mountain air!
