Classic skiing 50:00 [1] 1.3 mi (38:28 / mi)
Out the back on waxless. Went the way trees would allow but generally toward BBR. The swamp between me & the contours kept taking me left. Finally, saw what at first appeared to be a clearing but it was that and BBR itself. Paralleled BBR but any way thru never looked promising. Backtracked some & then, in a hole in trees, could see the contour hill. Got to the base, along, by the boulder and finally to the old trail Beth & I once used, now overgrown with small pines. Then back toward the house on sense of direction - no sun to speak of & no landmarks any more. Came out more to L than I thought I would. Recalled the time we got lost out back 12/31/07 - think it was, NYE anyway. GPS battery too low to use.
Also went to Stoneybrook Bog with Mocha this morning. She was quite bouncy (15y5m) given fresh air woods and ready supply of top-of-line treats.
