Description: Bagged The Tornfell and Jenny Jump Mountains #1-4 while hiking and geocaching over the course of 25.5 miles in Jenny Jump State Forest. Also redlined the Ghost Lake (Turquoise) Trail, Summit (Yellow) Trail, and Jenny Jump (Blue) Trail while hiking from Ghost Lake to Mountain Lake. About an inch of powder everywhere so barebooted all day. All water crossings were half frozen and crossable w/o difficulty. Blue bird skies for the first half of the day and wished I had my SLR; towards the end it got quite dark as the wintry mix made it way. Finished about an hour after sunset.
