Harriet Hollister Spencer State Recreation Area was busy this first weekend of 2014. Activities started with a snowshoe competition Saturday morning and ended with a Springwater Trails hike. 
Eighteen hikers joined Springwater Trails at the parking lot of HHS Park. We split into three groups, the skiers, the climbers on snowshoes and the tourists on snowshoes or hiking boots. We covered most of the well groomed trails in the park and enjoyed the sounds of the winter forest.
No one got lost during this hike, thanks in large part to a map the Rick found of the ski trails. This was originally found in the March newsletter from Rochester Nordic Ski Club and was referenced in a blog from Footprint Press that you may find interesting. I am also copying the mileages from the Nordic Ski Club newsletter.
