Lee Carvalho led a group of 5 hikers down the SRK Greenway Trail 10 from near Winslow State Park in Wilmot to Proctor Academy in Andover. It was snowing when we started but by the end we saw some glimpses of sun. Lee is near the center of the photo below while Deb is photographic a pair who planned to head uphill toward Mount Kearsarge.

Before we entered the woods we passed Fieldstone Farm. A pair of horses retreated back to near the barn then watched us cautiously. If you click the image below you will be taken to a version of this photo that you can zoom in and explore in detail along with another panoramic image from the trip.

The woods were quiet. We passed cellar holes and the remains of fireplaces—one quite impressive. We hiked along snowmobile trails but only saw one—shortly after I commented that I was surprised we didn’t see any snowmobiles. We saw very little open water until we reached the Blackwater River. Below is a patch of water in a small stream surrounded by smooth mounds of snow.

Here is a slide show from the hike. Two of the images have been edited to simplify details like a painter might do. And the last shows blowing snow on the side of Kearsarge from a Proctor Academy field after the snow stopped.
