It was a warm wintery day, in the low 50's, so we decided to get out and hike. It's been a little while since we've done a real hike so we decided to keep it easy. We picked a 4.5 mile round trip hike with about 800 feet of elevation gain. Not too difficult but still hard enough to give us a workout. The hike ended up being double the elevation gain than we were thinking. Not sure how that happened, but we made it and didn't suffer too much from the unexpected difficulty of the extra elevation gain.
