Today was my first time visiting Camels Hump State Park. They have many different recreation options for those with varying levels of outdoor experience. We chose to hike the Monroe Trail to the summit. It was a beautiful day weatherwise, this was evident by the amount of others we saw along the way. Many snowshoers, but mostly cross-country skiers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signs of Wildlife!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Most of the wildlife tracks we saw looked similar to this. They were small prints that trailed far into the woods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-We did see a few larger prints that I wasn’t able to get good pictures of, but they looked to be some sort of large rabbit\/hare. <\/p>\n<\/div>

This place is busy with skiing and snowshoeing so wildlife wasn’t heavily prevalent. I did take some pictures of cool tracks I saw along the way. The visible tracks consisted mostly of small rodents and birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting There!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state park is located in Duxbury, Vt. It’s about a 45-minute drive from campus which doesn’t make it easily accessible unless you have a car. There are plenty of recreation options here so it’s easy to plan for a day trip or even a few!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
