Blue Mound State Park - 4/5/2008
Though I'm a fairly regular visitor to Blue Mound State Park, I don't seem to
post many photos--mostly because it's one of my "speed/distance" hiking destinations
on Monday evenings in the summers. On this particular hike, it was a warm Saturday
afternoon, with temperatures in the upper 50s and lower 60s. After a brutal winter
with more than 100 inches of snow, I was ready to hike outdoors regardless of the
terrain. I expected mud--but got a fun combination of snow, ice, and mud that
made for a relatively slow but very fun hike.
