HIKE DISTANCE: 
All three Tupper Lake Triad hikes completed in one day:
Mount Arab - 2.1  miles (1 mile each way)
Goodman Mountain - 3 miles (1.5 miles each way)
Coney Mountain - 2.1 miles (1 mile each way)


THE HIKE: 
It was 36 degrees with 20 mph winds and it was snowing.
Coming up on the Mount Arab Fire Tower.
There were no views from the bottom so I had to go up.  I made it to the third landing before the wind got too strong to go higher.
Even though it was drizzly and snowing, there were some views.
Waiting so patiently.  Those white lines are snowflakes.
Snow sticking on Brodie.
The trail loops around before heading back down.
He should be hibernating but I guess with temps in the 50's the day before he was confused.
Of course the sun came out as we were nearing the end.

Registration form has been submitted for the patches and Brodie will be getting his own dog patch.
