Log Slide to Au Sable Lighthouse Hike -- Post 1

After many weeks of travel to shows, I finally took time last Sunday to take a long hike with Wendy. In around three inches of snow we walked from the log slide to Au Sable Lighthouse. Normally I would not consider this a long hike. However, the snow made the hike seem a bit longer. In places the snow was a bit deeper, but overall it was like walking in soft sand. It certainly took a few more calories to walk this distance than it does in non-winter weather.

Part way down the trail I snapped off the typical west and east shots.




We had a beautiful sunny day, which was a relief since we have not seen much of the sun lately. The snow also creates more contrast for photography.



Here is a series of shots of the recently renovated Au Sable lighthouse.





My new camera with its terrific zoom allowed me to take this shot of Grand Marais from the lighthouse.
