My favorite view in the park.. Mills Lake which is what we took as a snowshoe hike during Easter break. 2.8 miles and beautiful!! Black Pond is beyond this view 2.6 miles... and 3 hours in the snow :-(
Ahhhhh but savoring Mills before the emotionally brutal trek ahead on an unmarked, soft snow covered trail.
This is 2.5 hours later and still not at Black Lake.. this was a cool waterfall to hike up alongside though... reminded me of Sliding Rock in North Carolina!
Another separate straight up incline... both of these inclines we just sat down and slide down in the return... although you get much wetter it is much quicker and more fun! Our shoes were already squishing, filled with water and mud by this point and I lost feeling in my feet for 3 of the 9 hours we were on this trail
We made it! and in 9 hours roundtrip... the lake was frozen over and the snow slushy so it was a challenge but we made it! No snow for our Sunday trip we decided though!!
