Comments
Comments: Trails were quite wet late this morning following the morning rain. Car wash effect on the swath (they haven't hooked up the brush hog to the Zamboni yet) and lots of slippery roots and ledge.

Very quiet at the lake with a variety of wildflowers in bloom.

Misty, humid morning with temperatures in the 60s and a breeze.
