Interesting way to start 2009 by hiking 15 miles of the Ozark Trail! It was a fun hike, but much more demanding than we anticipated. There was still so much ice on the trail - it was quite difficult to get up the north slopes - in fact Nancy had to crawl up one of the first hills.
On Day two we had to ford more crazy streams that had become emboldened by the melting snow and ice making the crossings very cold if not hazardous. We managed to survive without incident other than getting a bit wet and cold and having to remove our boots to make the crossing.
