Full Moon Hike

Nine of us gathered at the Weathervane in Beford on our way to a Full Moon snowshoe event on Saturday, February 7, 2009. The hike was about 90 minutes long and the moon actually did appear a few times. Probably if we do this again, we'll call this event the "Blue Moon" hike. One of the photos in this set will tell you why.
