 | Comments: |
Tried out the bushwhack between Rocky Branch and Isolation. This sucked in both directions. I am not really sure where we were supposed to be as I was playing follow the leader but it sucked. Coming back we stuck to a higher elevation and while the view was nice and there was tons of animal presence to be seen my legs are fatigued today. We were in high ferns, with blowdowns and hidden rocks everywhere, ledges, moose poop, deer flies, water-like a swamp and real tight pine trees at some points. Next time I do this it will be done with someone that knows exactly where the bushhack starts and ends! |
