Quiet adventure

Really quiet... another adventure

Yesterdays hike, a nice brisk early morning before the mud  hike, all is quiet. Gaige is running around looking for animal track. Hikah is here close with me helping himself to snacks along the way.

Fresh Deer Carcass
We enjoyed frozen, wet areas along our way...

Frozen wet area

We came upon obstacles in-which Hikah needed guidance to overcome...


Tree bridge
Although Hikah wanted to walk the tree bridge, his hind legs are weak and not to be trusted. I didn't want to risk him falling, so I guided him over the small channel. As we continued down the trail we heard Pileated Woodpeckers calling out. It was a very quiet day and they we're very loud!

We seen an odd rock from a distance...of course I had to investigated.

Odd rock

Rock and Hikah
The rock was lifted out of the ground when the tree was blown over. Now that's incredible force!
Four miles and 2 hours and 15 minutes later we we're all safely out of the woods.

Did I mention it was quiet out there today?
