Around south Wallowa Lake...

November 27, 2015 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: teens, snowy, icy, COLD. But no wind

Comments:
Slept in a bit with CA, then had a lazy tea before going out for a run, around 10:30. Was a little haggard from the race, but not bad. Ran up the hill toward the Wallowa Creek trailheads and even ran up on them a bit: about a half mile on each. They weren't really runnable, so we mostly trudged through about 6-10" of snow that was slightly packed down and firm, due to the significant cold. After a couple out-and-backs, we just ran down the road.

We saw on a map that there might be a "Lakeshore Rd" that ran on the west side of the lake, so we ran north, downhill, past the resorts and into the State Park, then got on another trail. Ran on this snowy trail -that was runnable, albeit slow- for a good mile, but the road wound up being an unplowed doubletrack, so we just ran back.

HR was a little jacked up again, but we kept it slow. Wound up just shy of 7 miles. Beautiful morning!
