Snow Shoeing!!!

Ashley and I had been wanting to go snowshoeing for awhile this semester. I bought some snowshoes a couple years ago at a thrift store and Ashley got some nice ones from my parents for Christmas this year. My uncle Jay told me about a place up bear Mt. Hood called Frog Lake. I was very busy with school all semester but we found an open Saturday when I was sick of studying and headed up to the mountains. When we got there we were excited to see that they were having dog sled races. Unfortunately the races were done for the day but we did get to see one musher out for one last ride. It reminded me of the movie Iron Will. It was very cold and we couldn't seem to keep James bundled and comfortable at the same time. We didn't hike for very long but we had a great time!


This guy almost fell off his sled because the dogs were taking off so fast!
