We went for a long hike up Apex Trail and Enchanted Forest Trail through the snow.  Many bridges (I don’t think this one) were replaced recently in the final stages of the repair of Apex Park after the flooding that occurred in the fall of 2013.

There were a couple of doe deer, a large stag, and another spike buck hovering on the periphery.
