Weekend spring ski romp adventures.

On Saturday, with wet weather predicted for Sunday, the pack thought we should try get in one more ski adventure in...

We went to Gardner Rd just south of Mass City with the idea of
skiing in to the Middle Branch of the Ontonagon River.

This is the North Country Trail. Trees down and
across the trail, will be the theme today.

The bridge we raised a few years ago, is still good.

Oh dear.

We found tree after tree across the trail.
Will they get cleared this spring?

We got to the 1st road crossing and spied water everywhere.

With all the trees down and water from snow melt,
we decided to head north and take this road out.

Virulent hunting dogs watch over their domain.

 

And pass their slower 2 legged ones.

Snowmobiles have been down this road.

A south facing hill. 
Ya it's spring, and hunting dogs can identify all the smells.

Back at the dog truck, we have lunch before heading home.

Later, we headed out to local favorite romping spot
- the Pilgrim Watershed Trail.

Give over!

Ya I have to cut around the slow-pokes.

While exploring off-trail, we discovered an old hunting blind.

Nice spot for a blind, indeed!
Maybe we could camp out a few nights?

Spring is springing and everyone is out eating.

Lotsa critters were out and about, just like us.
We had such a nice day, all while keeping our social distance
which is hard for us mutts. We love to socialize!
