A great winter hike at Poke-O-Moonshine

What an amazing day!  We had a great turnout and a beautiful day of hiking at Poke-O-Moonshine in what was to be a "tracking" hike to see signs of wildlife.  It had snowed the night before so the tracks we saw were just depressions in the snow with no detail indicating what the animal was except for size. 

Hike leaders David Thomas Train and Elizabeth Lee provided commentary and interpretation as we hiked up the old jeep trail to a new beaver pond.  The old beaver dam had washed out a few years ago and the DEC built a nice bridge over the now free-flowing brook.&
