John Muir, the famous naturalist and hiker, didn’t worry about the difference between walking and hiking when he said,“I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out until sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.”

Location: Highland Recreation, MI

Hiked with: Darby

Route/trail: Haven Hill Lake

Weather: 18 degrees and windy

Duration: 1 mile, 16 minutes (that's all we could take!)

Altitudes/elevations/conditions: elevation 300 ft. gaining only 20 ft. the entire time

Sightings: frozen lake


Emotions, etc: the cold caused us to run part of the way which in the end 
felt exhilarating and so much better than all of the hotel treadmills I've been walking the past week
