Headed out in the afternoon, on trail by 3:00 PM, a little later than norm, but the days are longer now. Mission was to re-open an old grade, that I am sure was used as a trail at one point long ago.
No takers on wanting to go bush trail, so, we went it alone, just me and BP, no trail dog yet to accompany us. Working on that....
So with saw in hand, off we went, it is dark in this area of trail, and I was a little unsettled when BP would all of a sudden look out into the darkness, as if she had heard something.... I would stop for a moment, looking to see if there was something out there,, then back at it I went,, chop, chop, chop, until all the branches that would pose a problem were removed.
Checking the gps freakwently, to see how much farther it would be to the trail intersection, and making sure I had not vered off course. Finally, after a good hour we made it to the intersecting trail. I decided to walk back through what we had just cleared out, and come back through it and ride up into the Dark Forest, and out the other side.
The sun broke through the clouds just as I got back to the school
