Despite predictions of rain, four of us headed out to the Bellayre Ski Center on Saturday morning. The clouds hung over us, but we parked in the x-country ski parking lot and started hiking on the ski trails. Had there been any snow, we certainly would have skied.
From the x-country trails, we entered a hiking trail which led to a snowless (but icy) downhill trail. It was very steep, and we argued about whether to continue climbing it. As we were arguing, the rain began and ended the discussion -- we headed down. Following ski trails, we ended up at one of the lodges and caught a shuttle bus down to our cars.
From there, we drove to Margaretville for a snack. Then we headed back to the Inn to get ready for dinner.
On Sunday, we drove to Phonecia and climbed a trail to Mt. Tremper. I had to leave early, but my hiking companions made it to the top.
