Sheridan Lake Trail

This short trail is always worth the view! It is a short walk of approximately 3/4 mil to Sheridan Lake,  It is gravel covered with a few small hilly sections and a downhill to the lake.  There is a bridge that gets covered by water about a 1/4 mile in, but if you take a right at the top of the hill the alternate route will bypass the water.  Today during a quick run to the lake I saw two piles of bear scat, but by making noise and talking, I alerted any wildlife that I was passing through and did not see any bears. 

It was raining less here than it was in Cordova when I left town, and a little chilly, so I wore my Arcteryx Shell and Atom Lt. Vest.  For footwear my Brooks Adrenaline running shoes worked great! I did see several Varied Thrush and a few smaller birds that were too quick and far away to identify. This is a great family outing as it is short and has the reward of the lake and maybe a piece of glacier ice for an evening cocktail!
