Curved Oak Trail

The spools went on the FS131 over the weekend.  Ten tanks of gas were used to trim along the driveway and across much of the trail system since Monday morning.

The busy tool took a break in a trail this a.m.

A new trail has been added to Hardwood Hermitage.  The Curved Oak Trail is near the house.  The short loop has a big elevation change.  The trail's namesake is pictured here.

The big oak is at the top of the trail's elevation.  With lots of sun thanks to being so high, the oak is the property's best acorn producer.

Like so much of the rest of the trail system, young birches stand on both sides of Curved Oak Trail. 

 

The neighbor's garden continues to provide us bounty.  This 18-inch long zucchini squash was picked today.
