A Winter Hike - AKA letter search and find

Last week, we had our first real snow storm, and the weather report predicted yet another one materializing Sunday. We took advantage of sun, and comparably warm temperature (this is of course a matter of opinion, it was after all 25 degrees..) and headed out for some winter sports activities. We drove to the larger Metro Park where we planned to rent cross country skis - however, this same brilliant idea had occurred to many other people and there were no more skis to be had.
There seemed to be some fun hiking trails in the forests and we headed out for a hike. As a tribute to Mamma's childhood, we packed clementines, and Marabou chocolate for our outing. These provisions turned out to be a great encouragement and motivation to keep on walking through the snow.
Noah and Mamma spent some time looking for all the letters of our last name in the forest and we thought we came home with all, but alas we are missing the 'h'. Oh well, a great opportunity to head out again as soon as the snow stops falling and the temperatures are returning to double digits again.
