Wednesday Hi-res


I had my new 70D with me in the woods today- here's today's picture from that :)

And we're back :)

Had to make do with chucking a call in Colin's back yard yesterday as I had too much snow to deal with :(

But today more than makes up for it- simply beautiful in the woods today!

Clear and 30F with bright sun and a few wispy clouds.

Everyone's footprints in the sloppy snow from yesterday has frozen solid into treacherous ridges- but it's no match for my Hillsound hiking crampons :)
