Looking for some guys who want to go out snowshoeing. This is a great way to enjoy winter and gt in some exercise. If you don't have snowshoes you can rent them from a store in nearby Richmond, Illinois, 2K Adventure Gear. The hike lasts about 2 hours and goes through some beautiful parts of the park.
