I walked so much in CA (and did so many steps down cliffs) that my right knee was feeling odd. No pain, but it had a "slushy" feeling. Now that I'm back home, I tried walking the trails this AM, but there is still too much snow. I was postholing with every step. I opted for the streets which isn't as satisfying but gives me some exercise. I think my knee is OK - maybe just overused.
