Took a great afternoon hike up Owl's Head, a small peak near Groton State Forest, while visiting family over in Vermont this weekend. There was still about a foot of snow on the ground, but spring was in full gear, with a sky full of high wispy cirrus clouds and 60 degree weather. Beautiful!

Looking out over Kettle Pond, with Camel's Hump in the far distance.

The view from the Owl's Head gazebo. Spruce Mountain is a nearby peak straight ahead.
