This past\u00a0Saturday<\/span><\/span>, 11 brave souls attached micro spikes to their boots and ventured into the woods. Fernald\u2019s Neck, just outside of the Camden Hills area, proved to be an excellent hike.<\/p>\n

As we trudged through the powdery snow, it was decided that both Nick and Eric would be eaten first if our trip turned Donner-esque. Within the half hour, we arrived at our first overlook and enjoyed a quick photography break.<\/p>\n

We continued onward in hopes of finding a way onto the frozen pond. We came across the \u201csilver trail\u201d which took us to Balance Rock.<\/p>\n

When we reached the edge of the lake, we saw snowmobile tracks and decided that if the ice could hold a snowmobile, it could hold us. But, just to be sure, we shed some layers and took awesome photos.<\/p>\n

After sharing lunch on an island in the middle of the lake, we packed up our supplies (including cholula hot sauce thanks to Hannah) and headed back for the cars.<\/p>\n

All in all, it was an awesome day. The wind was minimal, the snow was fresh, and the people were awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
