The weather was very cold but the lakes in Harriman were not yet fully frozen. I had left work to do a short hike in the snow near a scenic lake. I parked at the Silvermine Lake parking lot, and took the Menomine Trail east along Lewis Brook and the picnic area. I then continued on the trail through the cemetery, and then crossed Seven Lakes Drive. I went along the east side of Lake Nawahunta off the trail within a beautiful pine forest, and then looped back to the Menomine Trail, which I took back to my car at the parking area.
