I was out on the snowshoes again today, I did the loop to the business park. I the way back I went along the edge of the field in the fresh snow.
Some snowmobile tracks at the far edge of the field.
These are my tracks that I made a few minutes ago, I am on the way back home, I was out for a hour.
Overcast at -5 with NE winds gusting to 60 km/h. The forecast for tonight has the winds gusting to 80 km/h and up to 20 cm of snow..

Snow and snowshoeing.
Yesterday I woke up to 40 cm of snow to clear off walk and driveway. at -9 it was good snow to blow.
Then in the afternoon I was snowshowing with a Cornwall group for 75 minutes, a small group of four.
Today I saw rabbit tracks in a couple places in the woods by the balll field.
I went as far as the water tower and back by a different route so I was breaking for about 75% of the 4 km that I travelled. Today was sunny at -2 with a light west wind.

On the snowshoes
It started snowing in the morning and snowed all day. Late afternoon I snowshoed to the business park.
Not much wind and the snow was staying on the trees.
A nice flow of water in the little creek, temperature was around zero most of the day, as of now it is -2

Sawing plank by chainsaw
I was to the wood lot today, setting up some logs to see if I can saw out a plank.
A little rough but I got my first plank.
I found that the jig on the old Poulan is too big, I will redo part of it.
Later I walked to the business park and back. Very foggy at +8 with rain showers.

Geese at Ellen's creek
I took advantage of the sunny and went cycling. Lots of open water for the geese and ducks at Ellen's creek.
I cycled to Victoria park and then across town to the trail, then to the bypass hwy and Rte 2 to Winsloe.
No sign of ice in the Charlottetown harbour.
It was -7 with a wind chill of -10 when I got home from cycling.

Mild day at +8
These ski tracks were made after I was here yesterday. I haven't tried my skis yet.
With a bit of sun, a +8 temp and a south wind of about 30 km/h the snow is disappearing.
The sun was hiding behind this cloud. I didn't brother with the snowshoes but did walk the 3 km loop to the business park and back.
