I am a temporary refugee from the heat. 😰 Or maybe it’s the for clarity of thought only the woods can bring. 🌲 But I’m getting away for a few days to work, plan and paddle from Spectulator 🏊 and then do some swimming and relaxing down at the potholers, floating away in the tube. ⭕️ And then maybe Lily Lake or Little Falls to paddle on Sunday. πŸ›Ά Not a full vaction but getting away a bit from the heat and craziness of it all.

Along The Adirondack Scenic Railroad Tracks

On Tuesday night, I walked along the Adirondack Scenic Railroad Tracks, which get little use since last year's wash out by Rollins Pond. The tracks were quiet, as they wandered through the wilderness. I saw a black bear and cubs, and not being sure if I locked up my truck fully, I headed back to camp after walking out about 20 minutes on the tracks.
