morning - 15 Yankee Meadow Res. Had seen this lake from the top of the mountain on Tuesday, and decided to try and figure out how to get to it. Ran up past Hendrickson Lake and then down the Dark Hollow Trail. Tis was the coolest place I had been all week. The trail was amazing - stream crossings, little wooden bridges, plank crossings, tree crossings, jump crossings, deer, tons of awesome stuff. Then came on a dirt road that took me to the lake. When I popped out of the forest the fisherman where like, "What the...". On the way back, I took an ice dip in the stream. It was so cold I couldn't get in for even a minute, but it was great. Tired, tired legs by the end though. The Vertical K's are the best trail shoe I have ever worn. (VertK 163.75) |
