Adventure at Misery

[urbpan]

belen1974, rockbalancer, cottonmanifesto, chaggie and I went on a hiking adventure at Mt. Misery, conservation land in Lincoln Massachusetts. I reasoned that away from the shore there was less icing, and so hiking would not be so difficult. It was, in fact, pretty strenuous. We also got lost, adding a couple miles to the hike, and ended up scaling the mountain (a tiny Massachusetts mountain, but hard to do anyway) and hiking through frozen swamps and along the Sudbury River. All the above lj people have posted pictures of the hike (or will soon, hint hint rockbalancer), and it might be fun for you to compare them.



To adventure!





We all thought this frozen stream was beautiful.





I don't know what this shrub is, but these are its dried fruit capsules.



And this is one of its buds, getting ready to put forth foliage in spring.

She also found this amazing thing, which became cottonmanifesto's picture of the day.

I have to say I admire your energy, while not actually lifting a foot to emulate you. We've been cozying up to the couch/HD TV/computer/book stations in our warm living room. We'll probably die of heart failure sooner than you, but we'll be warm. :-)
