A mountain adventure

Sandy: Little Fox highly suggested bringing my green puffy jacket on vacation and he was right.  I needed the jacket today for sure on our mountain adventure.
Little Fox: Sandy and I are starting our snowshoeing adventure today in the parking lot near Mt. Hood (see that big mountain in the background?). Seems like others are getting ready for an adventure as well.
Ah, this is a better spot for our picture.  Those pesky folks from the previous picture are now out of the way.  Mt. Hood looks good today.
Sandy: Nothing like walking through a snow covered forest to remind a bear of his home country, Canada. 
There is a large snowpack here at the mountain.  This would be a great time for a hot chocolate. 
Little Fox: Sandy and I resting up after our climb to the top of the trail. 
On our way down the mountain (and to lunch) we decided to take one more picture of us in the snow.  Sandy sure looks at comfortable in the snow. 
The road back to the car and our lunch destination.

Where will Sandy and I go next?

  1. Beautiful photos, although the road back looks a bit scary with so much snow!

    1. Close, we went to Bennet Pass near Mt. Hood Meadows. You need to talk to person to get you out more.

    2. Mama: Oh well... with several days of rain, it's now down to 7" or so... the greenhouse is doing well though and we are getting ready to plant some seedlings...
