It is pretty much grass after the second mowing.

BTW, I used the free app GAIA GPS to map the trails and used their satellite layer to make the map. I had been pretty close before on a satellite image - I could see many of the trails and did dead reckoning for others, but I the GAIA was more accurate. I had tried mapping with Huntstand before, but it jumped all over the place.

We mow trees up here in the northern hardwoods! 😁

We need 'tracks' so firefighters can access if there is a bushfire. I regularly clear fallen trees off my tracks. Apart from that we take the grandkids for rides on our XUV 4x4.

Having trails is, some times, the only safe way to access areas

Making trails on my property, and trying to buy more land to make more!!! I literally have a path "over the river and thru the woods to grandmas house" as we just moved the MIL in and had a baby girl, she can now grow up in a fairy tail!

Why own land if you can't get out and enjoy it? My church is outside, and I try to attend daily.

Trails are the only way to use your property without destroying your tractor or toy. I cracked the cowling on my 2 month old snowsled while trying to sneak around a tree, I cut that down and it will now be firewood.

For the last year my miles and miles? of trails were impassable due to the rain.

It's been dry now for 5? days and forecast dry for the next 5. I hope it's true but i don't believe it. I'm so so thankful for the few dry days we have had. I literally begged the septic guy to dig mine asap, he's busy now catching up!

Some day I'd like to clean the trails up but I've learned, getting an MX tractor out of the orange mud is a task!

Take a look at what I found yesterday in many of the wet spots on the trails, hundreds. I seem to see something new everyday. My old buddy country guy told me the bubbles are frogs eggs.

Mother nature is prolific!

Whoops

The eggs are inside the bubbles, hundreds in each bubble. I think the black spots are eggs, millions altogether?

If each bubble were an egg, I hate to be the frog!
