I took my good buddy Jake out this afternoon for a snowshoe workout since the gym closed at 4 PM today. It was about 22 deg and a light 10 mph wind coming out of the canyon with some flurries falling. We did a good 45 minutes broke up into intervals of walking and running. Jake led the way and made me play catch up. Great workout and a great time with my buddy.

    I am SO JEALOUS of you! I love snowshoeing, and it is SUCH a great workout! I finally invested in my own pair of snowshoes last winter. We haven't had more than 2-3 inches of snow at a time since then (it's been about 14-15 months). :sad:

    Oh, and if you change "IMG" to "img" your pics should work. Your doggie is awesome :smile:

    Make those IMGs into imgs, and they will automagically fix.

    I made them into imgs and now it says they are deleted.

    I copied and pasted your original links into a different window and they showed up. Lemme try something....


    Edit: I got the "image has been deleted/moved" message too...this is your image link: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y5/gusman14/Mobile Uploads/IMAG0109_zps2cea9d82.jpg

    From this I can see that your folder on photobucket is called "Mobile Uploads" with a space in it, but MFP turns that into "Mobile%20Uploads," which screws up the link. Make a new photobucket folder with no spaces in the name (like "share" or "mobile"), move your photos there, and try re-linking them here.

    I learned to snowshoe and cross country ski when I was in the UP back in the 70s. It was a great way to travel and get back to the lakes where the snowmobiles would not go. My whole family has them and we love them but I just don't get out enough on them. Gonna put an end to that and enjoy this great winter snow...

    Do you get much snow where you are at?

    Not a lot of fresh snow this winter, but usually yes. And the Canadian Rockies are about 45 minutes from my front door :)

    Stopped back by to see your pics. Love the smiling dog. I used to live in Lake Tahoe, and my dog and I spent many a day in the snow. So fun.
