BEAR CREEK OVERLOOK HIKE

We took Mark on a hike to the Bear Creek overlook today.  We were going to do St Mary's Peak but the weather would not have been good and the mountain was in the clouds.  We did get some rain, frozen pellet snow, and even a flake of snow or two even on this hike.  In fact we left earlier than we had planned on because right after lunch the weather really changed.  Glad we did not do St Mary's!   Had a good time but it was not the warmest hike we have been on and were glad we brought rain gear.

Lots of chipmunks at the overlook today.

And even a snake.  We were very surprised when Connie found this.  Click to enlarge.

It was so cold, he moved pretty slow.
