Hickory Run State Park
This weekend the weather was unseasonably warm, in the forties, a perfect opportunity for some winter hiking in Hickory Run State Park.
Rhododendrons line the creek, a perfect contrast of dark green against white snow and flowing water.
I love forests of conifers providing plenty of greenery, even in winter.
The creek is partially frozen in spots.
I love the sound of hiking along water.
Sand Spring Lake was frozen over, but starting to thaw, creating patterns of swirls in the ice.

Hiking in a beautiful state park is as good as it gets. Me and my GSD (Baron) do that a lot...:)peperu3011
Thanks for visiting troutbirder! Yes, our State and National Parks are absolutely beautiful!
Happy New Year, Anne. I hope that it is a great one for you. I can remember camping in that park with my dad, a brother, and a sister when I was a kid. I don't remember a lot about it, but I enjoyed visiting once again via your nice photos. Art
