Final Days in Danbury

Winter vacation is over but the photos are still coming off the camera.   This is the last major gallery which includes chopping holes in the frozen lake, sledding and enjoying time in the “cabin.”   I had such great luck capturing 360 panoramas of the clear night sky that I decided to try the same thing with my Nikon.  Much harder to do, especially trying to focus in the dark.   Still, I had at least one turn out well that I included here.   Enjoy!

The Second Expedition to Hidden Lake

Alert readers will remember that two years ago a failed expedition was mounted to Hidden Lake.   There are no roads or paths to Hidden Lake and its existence was only noted by looking at a Google Earth view of the area around Danbury.   Two years ago with over 2 feet of snow on the ground we set out to find it but ended up turning back short of our goal when grahm cracker provisions ran low.

This year we resolved to try again.   On Jan 1, 2013 Ben, Kai and Nora set out to find the elusive lake and met with success!   The pictures below document the amazing journey.
