It snowed a couple of inches this morning and was totally socked in with clouds everywhere. I usually hike with my friend, Pam on Fridays but it was hard to decide where to go. We decided on the Crevasse Moraine Trail since we could avoid the nasty road construction we would encounter if we went to the Matanuska Lake Trailhead. We considered walking the trip I did with Frank on Wednesday, but in reverse. We got sidetracked taking the Bear Berry Bluff Trail and ended up walking in a circle on the Bear Bottom Trail. It was so muddy that we really didn't want to do a 10 mile hike anyway, so once back to the Long Lake Loop and Long Lake Connector Trails, we headed back to Crevasse Moraine. 6.7 miles through the mud and a little snow, was plenty. Our dogs were once again, totally covered in mud. But they really couldn't care less. They were having a ball checking out all the interesting smells. Bella went quickly into the kitchen sink once I was back home. I want to do some more exploring on those trails, maybe after more of the mud goes away. There are a bunch of lakes out there that I have never seen. It's pretty easy to get turned around and confused out there in that quagmire of trails though.
