There was a decent day last week where I was able to go for a ride around the farm. I chose to ride on the trail I had cut through the pines and forest area at the front of the farm.
All went well until I ran into a down tree across the trail. You really can't see it from this angle but it was blocking the trail completely with no way over or easily around. I decided to try to cut around it by going down hill.
Otoelene was a saint while I broke branches and cleared a path.
I think you can appreciate the steepness of the situation.
We made it through the rest of the trail and down to the gravel road. I think Otoelene was a little relieved to be back on level ground again. We had a nice ride to the crossroads then back home.
The steepness of that slope while covered in slippery leaves - yes - I imagine everyone was happy to be back on flatter trails.
