Squak Mt. 1.1.04
With just a little time to dedicate for a hike I chose something as close to home as possible. I left the Squak Mt. parking lot with a light snow just starting. The snow grew in intensity as the hike wore on. There was around six inches at the top which I am sure has doubled by now. I stayed on the access road and made the top in just less than an hour. I ran the the upper portion on the way down, the snow making a perfect cushion on my feet. I saw 4 other hikers on today's trip, and saw signs of a few more. I was glad to see the area gets some use.
