1-15 - I went back out to Waterfall Glen to retrace the trail thru "The Wilderness" and was successful this time. Did a little trail marking so I could repeat it after a fresh snow. Since it was only noon I decided to go over to the old Palos slide to check out the ridge trail that can be accessed from La Grange road to the top of the stairs of the slide. I also wanted to make sure the stairs were open and were suitable to take a large group down them next Tues. The stairs were completely clear of ice and snow and there must have had at least 25-30 cars in the parking lot with most of the people using the stairs. I was home by 2:00pm. - The rest of the day was consumed watching football games. A good day.
