Nothing like a new year, and a snowfall to get the pulse pounding for this hike through the Belding Wildlife Management Area.
The cold air out here on the trails, makes you feel like your really lost in the great outdoors.
You may only be minutes from your home but out in the fresh snow, the cold light air freezes your lungs and makes you feel the isolation. With the cold air and noiseless forest, there is no feeling like this in the whole world.
When your out here alone, in the bitter cold all alone, the noise seems to vanish the cold seems to take over your mind and the cold can make you numb. You soon realize this is would be very hard to survive without thermal clothing. Just imagine, days before the ground was an ugly brown. Now the snow covers everything making it fresh and new.
