Slavin Pond Loop — Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2019

A very cold day -16' in the morning,  and crystal clear. Took a friend from the west side on this loop, figuring the entire loop would be traversable due to the marshy part being frozen.  (It was).  The trail was in good condition with a few muddy sections, but not bad.  Hundreds of birds were in the lakes-swans, ducks and geese. When one reaches the marshy section, the grass had been trampled down into a trail of sorts until it skirted around the end of the ditch of water.  Then the terrain becomes dry and the trail obvious.
