    We had 87 when I came in around three.

    We decided that the water is too low for a boat ride so it looks like another day of trail work.

    I chipped up three loads of branches from this area, an hour in there this week with the splitter and the chipper and it will be part of a new trail.

    The chips went back on the trail I've been working on.

    I made it a short days work so we could make a run to Tupper Lake N.Y. for some grub!

    I cleared a couple of spots on the trails, dead junk that stayed in the woods.

    Pic 9223 is the trail work I did with the chips and the pine needles, it looks like it held real good.

    I knocked down three stumps and took a load of dead chit to the wood dump, it's looking better but I still have a ton of downed chit.

    I often wonder, what in the heck am I doing taking pictures of firewood or trail work but after seeing them on the computer you can see how much progress you're making.

    Once everything dies off, I'll be making sure these are clear before the snow hits.

    I took two loads of rotten Maple to the wood dump, it was blocking our main trail in this area, I have it marked where it was in picture 9271-002.

    Good job. Is the wood dump on your property, or do you take it somewhere?
