snowshoe hare

last night Scott and I drove out to the Dredge and rode Blair Witch and the CT. amazing night. a little on the chilly side (upper 30s), but the moon and stars were out, and the trails were dusty. We saw a snowshoe hare off the side of the Red Trail, in a very dense, northern exposure part of the woods. Perfect, moist, cool habitat for the elusive white rabbit, and also good habitat for its biggest predator, the lynx. We weren't lucky enough to see any lynx, however.
