Ski Tracks on the Robert Frost Trail -
Amherst MA, 12/30/12 |
More pics - these taken Sunday morning - from the Mill River Conservation Area, Robert Frost Trail and Puffer's Pond. Early morning after a snow storm is often the best time to take photographs. Generally, the branches are still laden with snow, and the trails are pristine. I made my way to several trails near Puffer's Pond on Sunday morning, which had already been visited by one early rising cross country skier. On Saturday into Sunday, we got 5 more inches of snow on top of the 6 inches from Wednesday/ Thursday. Even without skis, I was able to easily traverse the terrain, a base of dense packed snow, with a fluffy layer of powder on top. The sun was just rising above the treetops and casting sharply contrasting areas of light and shadow across the glittering white surface. Simply breathtaking.
