It's the second half of November as the label job I ran today reminds me. 🏷️ The landscape is cold and barren, it's dark out for a good portion of day, and riding home in the dark isn't much fun. But you make the best of it, and I figure the extra sleep and time to learn isn't a bad thing. πŸ›Œ Next adventure after Thanksgiving! πŸ¦ƒ Hopefully the fire risk is down by then as I want to have a big bonfire in wilderness πŸ”₯ after a good day riding trail or hiking. 🚢

Camping at Perkins Clearing on September 28, 2024

Camping at Perkins Clearing on a foggy September morning. It was a fun weekend, I rode back to Pillsbury Mountain and hiked to the recently restored firetower, and also rode back to Pine Lake in former Gooley lands after attending the Indian Lake Moose Festival.
