i've checked out quite a few old structures on the humber. old fence lines, some old buildings ruins, even old wells (springs/wet areas are quite a challange when building trail). even thought about how "wigwam's" where built

cedar wood is the material of choice hands down. it is an easy wood to cut and shape with an axe or tool. as well as being decay resistant, thus easy to scavenge from deadfall.

the bark can be even woven or used as a roofing material. it's a natural choice trail features built with hand tools. though it takes a bit of re-learned skill how to scavenge, split, cut, shape and peel...

mushrooms that are out now...

up on the watershed

and i break my derailer again...

singlespeed it

so we went 4x4ing in the bush.  trails are everywhere, very easy to get lost.

need to drive with locked axles most of the time

sometimes we had to make our own trail

this was very cool.  due to the low water levels we drove along a river for quite some time.

a hearty snack afterwards...

got some wild local blueberries also.
