The last two days spent cutting a trail from North Arm to Milner Bay. The distance about 1.0 km. with very thick bush. Finally today Paul and I arrived at Milner Bay after cutting and trimming pretty well the whole way across. The snow was heavy in the trees so that everytime you chopped a branch a load of snow landed on top of you. Paul quickly learned not to look up. At times I was on my knees like a snowshoe hare looking for a path through the undergrowth. Total time cutting aprox. 8 hours over 2 days. This adds quite a scenic part to the new trail, with lots of twists and turns. Paul flagged the trail as we headed back to the truck. When we arrived at Pauls, Gert had some great cinnamon buns and hot chocolate which topped the day right off, thanks Gert.
This completes the new trail except for it's finish which will be up near Diabase Lake where the snowmobile trail comes out.
Mudding is in progress on the front room with half of it done with the first coat.

Great work! you must me tired-I know I would but what a great accomplishment. I love the snow on branches part-ah the pranks we kids enacted utilizing those snow laden "bombs". Have fun with the mudding.
I am I reading this map right? It looks like the trail goes right through my bedroom.
