Walk, Geocaching - Indian Meadows Park

With shopping and wrapping all done, we went for a short Christmas Eve walk this afternoon in Indian Meadows Park, in Glenville. There were 3 geocaches we planned to look for in the wooded southern end of the park. Walking was crunchy and even icy at times, but we came to the general area of the first cache with little trouble. It was then that we noticed the notation "not available in winter" on the cache's description, so didn't try very hard to find this tiny first part of a summer-only multi-cache. Moving on to the next, we found it in short order, so headed for #3. It turned out that we'd need to cross a stream, with water flowing under the ice, without using a bridge that had dislocated itself from the banks and turned sideways in the channel. Not gonna happen, so we headed back to the car after about an hour of walking. More icy crap on tap for the weekend, so indoor pursuits will have to do for a while.

  2. Not enough snow yet, unless you like old frozen icy crap. We've had a couple of inches in the past day or two, but still lots of thin spots.
