Still to do (1.7 sg km, if I do all the corners) --
Or, to take the glass half full approach (or almosthalf full), what's done (1.4 sq km) --
Yesterday I got reminded of another thing coming soon, in addition to cold weather and snow -- deer hunting season starts a week from tomorrow. The reminder was a nice old beech tree, carved into which were a name, a date (from 1990), and "8 point buck." So got to keep at it. And try to get all the land that might be private done before than, since landowners might be out then. And wonder what I was doing.
I have been wearing a bright orange hat. Might have to add an orange jacket too.
I can't imagine doing this map from a USGS base. There's a lot more going on that the USGS indicates and the hillsides would be just impossible. Even a regular stereo base would be hard. Some steep slopes and lots of hemlocks.
Lots of bikers out today. Also some hikers up on the Seven Sisters trail, where there's actually some beautiful O' terrain, at least in the one section I'll be using. Nice day.
But I sure am tired. Plus still sick, though maybe getting better.
Glad I wasn't at the Traverse, doubt I would have finished.
