Decided to try our hand at "breaking trail" in deep powder snow behind our rental (direct access to national forest land). Vick had fallen earlier and struggled mightily to get up. Remember, you have nothing solid to push off except your ski pole which as you see from the next picture didn't offer much help due to depth of snow. We learned that trails where others have packed the surface are much nicer way to travel.
We decided to create a trail for about a quarter mile and then walk back via the same route which then left a pretty good route for someone else to extend (someone much younger than us).
