    But what a beautiful afternoon to be in the woods...

    This is the top of a maple that broke in the spring about 12 feet up, sometime in the spring. Found it on the ground last weekend. More time cleaning and getting access than actual cutting.

    Always nice to find them already horizontal.

    Much of a distance into the woods?

    cross the bridge and then that distance again or so. Almost to the south wall.
    Building another trail about 50 yds north of the wall trail. Less boney, easier hiking and something a can get the atv and trailer through.

    Me too, this morning. Had to work at work.
    Really enjoyed the afternoon though.
    Hope you can get on the other side of the door tomorrow. Looks just as nice.

    You got firewood and a smoother trail out of it? Double score!

    Indeed this is close to the most ideal time of the year to be in the woods.
