I like hiking, but not that much.

I do the occasional winter hike but not in the rain.

Rain is the time to be indoors by the fire sipping spiced cider.

“it was pouring rain, and there was deep snow and slippery ice.”

That’s not the time to hike: That’s the time to fort up. Weather can sneak up on you when you are in the great outdoors, and your first priority under those conditions is SHELTER! It is NOT continue to hike under such adverse conditions.

Walking to school, no doubt.
