My adventure around the Burlington area consisted of a walk along the bike path to the South End. The bike path follows along Lake Champlain, which this time of year is frozen over. My NR buddy Peter Todhunter ventured on the ice covered lake with me, where we saw tracks, phenomenal ice formations, and life freezing in time. The great willow trees along the bike path were barren yet full of so much life. The weather was clear and windy which allowed for tracking along the lake shore. We found tracks thought to belong to an otter or fisher coming up from the lake.
