Twin Bears Snow Hike

Mike and I went on a leisurely snow hike at Twin Bears on Chena Hot Springs Road. The temperature was 15 above zero and the snow was incredible!

At the start of our hike, snow adorns the branches of the trees.

Quickly, things turn scary in the search for the car.
Kristie blazes unbroken trails to look for our ride home.

Trying to be brave in searching for the car,

Kristie enjoys the beauty of the snow and trees.

While looking for the car, Mike practices his politician pose.

With that shirt and the beard, Mike could run for borough assembly!

If only, he could find the car!

Mike knows where the trail is, but refuses to follow it most of the time.

This may be the reason we couldn't find the car!

Everywhere Mike and Kristie look,

there is nothing but snowy paths and NO car.

Kristie is still searching for the car.

Feeling strong and bold, Kristie will find that car, if it's the last thing she does.

"Yes, I can!" "Yes, we can!" Mike says about finding the car.

Keeping in good spirits, Kristie smiles for the camera.

Mike, suddenly energetic, feels that the car can't be far away.

Hmmmm.....maybe the snowshoe hare tracks will lead us to the car.

Of course, that didn't work. Never trust a bunny!

Tiring quickly, Kristie collapses in the snow.

Of course, the car is nowhere in sight.

Apparently, Kristie cannot go any further in the search for the car.

If there were an Arctic CSI, this is what the body outline would look like.

No, the car is not down that way!

Yippee! Apparently those bunny tracks worked out okay.

We finally found the car.
