Another step toward the custom Challenge completion for both kids and another adventure in the woods. We walked the whole way looking for those elusive bullfrogs and might as well have been searching for Bigfoot. We did spot dozens of bright blue dragon flies on the Wilson Trail, which got the boys psyched up imaging what else we might find. On the way back in, also on the Wilson Trail, we had to sidestep a large snapping turtle parked in the middle of the path. Afterward we had some fun cooling down as we explored the visitors center.
Wanted to run today but given the heat, decided to head for a shaded trail. It was lovely and mostly cool on the trail. We listened to birds, found the egg and cooled off in the Lab of O.
Looks like the Ash trail (the first right when starting from the building) is closed again, easy enough to find your way around (just go straight, only adds ~50m but also the biggest hill on the course) but @adamengst might want to make a more official statement since it’s a Classic course.
