| no partners | | Week 1 staying at my sister's place in Lakeside, decided to hit as many of the trails in the areas as possible to train for some big upcoming events.
Tuesday morning - Woodland trails
4.5 miles, 41 minutes - Took the hound dog up Turkey Track, down the back half of Hitching Post, and then around Woodland Lake. Somewhat aggressive pace. The house is a quarter mile from trail system access, which is nice.
Tuesday afternoon - Country Club Loop w/ Pat Mullen Mountain
4.4 miles, 51 minutes - Nice gentle grade until the spur, then a little hiking up to the summit. The amount of twists and turns on the 2nd half of the loop was annoying. The top of the hill is nice enough.
Wednesday morning - Woodland trails
6 miles, 1 hour - Brought dog again, did the Hitching Post loop followed by Turkey Track/Walnut.
Thursday morning - Timber Mesa
7.5 miles, 1 hour 40 minutes - Thought it was going to be a lot flatter at the top. Still kinda flat, but some rollers. Map mileage was right on. It's a pleasant enough loop, with some decent views here and there.
Thursday afternoon - Springs loop
3.4 miles, 37 minutes - with dog. Both of us enjoyed this one (which is to say, I enjoyed it, as she enjoys any and all trails). Creek is still flowing.
Friday morning - Woodland trails
4.4 miles, 49 minutes - with dog. Turkey Track, Walnut, Big Springs loop, then down Hitching Post.
Definitely a nice change of pace from the PMP... |

The normal TH was pretty full so I drove down the road and went to where the corral is. The trail was wet and I almost wiped out luckily there was an elk laying next to the trail to break my fall. Not sure if it actually was an elk or just a log shaped like one 
. Brunop and replacement dog stayed home and sulked the whole time. They forgave me when we shared a Dale's. Not hiking for like 6 years has made me take more time to appreciate my surroundings. Wait, who am I kidding being out of shape and gasping for air has made me do it. RS said 793 AEG but I just subtracted high and low from topo and came up with 392. Miles said 2.84 which also seemed high so I rounded down to 2.5. If you read this far, you have way too much time on your hands.
