The wind alternately blew in our faces and didn&#8217;t blow at all. We took main trails, side trails, dead-end trails, and loop trails. We spotted familiar landmarks and went through totally new areas. But despite everything the weather could throw at us, we still had an amazing time.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, no pictures were taken so we can&#8217;t liven up the blog with those, but this is what the conditions were like:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1045\" src=\"http:\/\/www.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/124\/2015\/02\/Picture-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Picture 2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-2.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1044\" src=\"http:\/\/www.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/124\/2015\/02\/Picture-1-300x180.jpg\" alt=\"Picture 1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-1-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-1-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/files\/2015\/02\/Picture-1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Trail Difficulty: 1.2<\/p>\n<p>Weather Difficulty: 3.7<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It may be cold and windy, and we may have had to postpone to next Sunday the planned trip to the Hirundo Wildlife Refuge in<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10865,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[414755,563393,563400,563401,563408,114028,563416,563434],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1043"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1043"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1043\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1043"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1043"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/outingclub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1043"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
