I have said this once and I will say it again, one of the best advantages of living in Estes Park is access to Rocky Mountain National Park. The second weekend in March my family headed out with our snowshoes to RMNP. We hiked up a back country winter trail to Lake Haiyaha to stomp, sled and play on the ice. Watch the video our our silly antics and the amazing igloo we warmed up in between sled runs (Many thanks to our forum friends who built it the weekend before). We brought our heavy duty Thermos with hot herbal tea. We bought a light weight roll up sled at the hardware store, but ended up sliding on our snowpants instead.
If you are wondering what those shiny rolls are in my husband’s backpack are they are reflective windshield shades. They work fantastic to keep your seat warm while sitting on the ice or snow and the best part is they are cheap. I picked them up at a garage sale. The snow has all melted from the April storm and it looks like Spring here. The golf course is greening up and we are starting to see some Spring flowers. Bye for now!
