Caching through the snow ... or not.

If I look out my window on this sunny Saturday, I can see snowshoe tracks in the distance. These are not tracks I've made, but I am, nonetheless, responsible for them. Some intrepid geocachers have braved the waist-deep snow to reach one of my puzzle caches, and have left their marks behind. Looking at those tracks this morning made me smile.

What makes me grumble, however, is the fact that there is so much snow out there. It's really frustrating, because I am just not a winter girl, and most caches out there mean wading through massive drifts to reach them. I got most of the "park-and-grabs" when I sprained my ankle, not anticipating the worst winter since I was a little kid.

Being right on the Bay of Fundy means that our usual winter goes "snow one week, rain the next". Normally, we only have snow on the ground, at most, for about four weeks with no break. Not this time. This time it came and it stayed. December's snow is still under there somewhere.

In the meantime, I'm sitting here making some new caches I plan to make "park-and-grabs", in case anyone else out there is feeling like I am. Then they'll have something new to keep them going until all this stuff melts. *grin*
