Day Two- Across THE Bridge

The big "if" for the day was getting across Little Woodhull Creek. We knew the bridge was damaged but parts were still there. Yes. Actually, everthing was quite stable. We scooted on our butts across the undamaged stringer. There were some nails we had to watch out for, but it really wasn't difficult. Good thing. There is no good place to ford and the water is moving fast.

Saw my first red eft of the year. They aren't found as far west as Michigan.

We went past Chub Pond and Gull Lake. This is Chub.

And Bill and I both think this is the largest beaver lodge we've ever seen.

It was an 11 mile day. Quite difficult, because what I didn't show you pictures of is that the part of the trail that is also open to snowmobiles was a total mud pit. Very bad slogging, and it slowed us down. But we finished before 5 pm.

North Country Trail, New York Adirondacks, Stone Dam Pond Trailhead to Gull Lake Parking.
