Forecast was for sunny and 60's - we got cloudy and 50's - but probably better than tomorrow for which rain is forecast.
We started from the Partridge Pond Trailhead. The trail had some wet spots but there are some new bog bridges in some places.
An amusing piece
Some other things we saw
An old root with dead grass and new growth
Old leaves
and new
colorful fungus
and Kelley found lots of water
A bridge she will not cross
We continued past the turnoff for Partridge on an unmarked but easily followed trail which takes you to the northern end of the pond
We then went back and took the trail over to the southern end of the pond
and back to the main trail and then over to Ducktail
After a little lunch we headed back and Kelley got into her last water for the day
We had seen no one until near the end we met a couple with a child and two young pups. This made Kelley happy- people ( she especially likes kids) and dogs. It had been a nice hike in spite of the lack of sun- there was no wind so it was a comfortable temperature for hiking. 2 1/2 hours
I don't blame Kelley for not crossing that bridge! It looks pretty sketchy.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda- yes, sometimes she's smarter than i am
DeleteThe bridge was intriguing. Makes me wonder where it leads.... :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Kim- it is unusual but is just part of the trail
