Sad news: the recent snow, combined with below-freezing temperatures, has forced me to cancel my 30K hike that had been planned for this weekend. Were there no snow on the ground, I'd have no problem trekking in the cold, but now, with the chance of slippage, I'm not willing to risk injury. Technically, the sidewalks near my office are walkable, but only barely. Even light, fleet-footed Koreans are treading with care. The sun will eventually melt the snow off the exposed parts of all the walkways, but that's going to take a while.
The hike will have to wait.
