Sourland Hike with Mr. Grumps

Jan 19, 2019 – Taking advantage of the calm weather before the big storm hits the area in the evening.

I took Mr. Grumps to Sourland Mountain Preserve for a trail run today. I thought it would be muddy, but the trail was hard packed with traces of snow and ice. Mr. Grumps definitely had fun exploring the trails. And as usual, he wanted to have some pictures taken. He met my old trail buddies and had pictures with them. He even did some ‘free soloing’ to show that he, too, has the courage to do what seems to be impossible!
