My pack signed up for a Solo Wilderness First Aid class so we loaded up and headed to Marquette on Friday morning. Since trail mutts already know how to handle themselves in the woods, I didn't get onto the classes. At least after the classes were over, we stopped in Craig Lake for a hike on Sunday afternoon!
 |
| I see adventure ahead! |
 |
| Ya, we need to get a going! |
 |
| I'll go up ahead and check for vermin. This is what happens if I've not been out for a run! |
 |
| Oh, oh I spied a squirrel up there! |
 |
| As we hiked past the Miller (of Miller brewing) cabin, the friendly family staying there came out to say hi! |
 |
| And kids! |
 |
| You know I never get to see any kids! |
 |
| OK we've got to get back on our hike around this lake. |
 |
| An interesting tree we spied. |
 |
| An old orange blaze |
 |
| This trail eventually joined the North County trail. |
 |
| Tea time! They tried out the pop-can stove their pal Dan gave us. It didn't like being lit in this cooler weather. |
 |
| I found my own brown tea here made with tannin. I recommend it! |
 |
| It snowed on us out here! |
 |
| A pretty overlook. |
 |
| A BIG rock I jumped on top of. |
 |
| I'm hunting vermin again. |
 |
| Another break! |
 |
| The bridge across the West Branch of the Peshekee river was being rebuilt. |
 |
| Good thing, because crossing the old one was very, very scary! |
 |
| I could fall off and get swept away in the raging torrent below, ya know. |
 |
| We've always wanted to see a suspension bridge being constructed. |
|
| We had such a nice hike today! |
 |
| Almost done. |
 |
| Back at the car. I love Craig Lake! |
