Hold onto our hat and again apply the bugspray--into the woods we went. What a blast. We were fortunate enougth to have a guide that knew what he was looking for---so many cool things. As congenial as we all wanted to be, it was difficult not to struggle to be in the front of the enterouge as we moved through the fauna to hear Dan's comments, and came upon discoveries.
We saw a really cool porcupine den and the massive of scat left at the base of the tree--a few quills left behind just to say "hello". Next, a few parts left of a deer skeleton left behind. Have you even noticed the trace patterns left behind on a birch tree from maybe a snail? It is amazing how high they climb on the tree to obtain nutrients.
Just blazing through the woods is fun but make sure you can find your way out. It could be a very long day. Following the logging paths was a great guide for us. These woods are so full of animal and plant life that it is rather impossible to adventure out without finding something really cool. Walk slowly and observe.
