Virtually all of the snow from last week’s spring blizzard is gone from the woods. Most of our trails are in good shape, although there have been a few big tree blow-downs that complicate matters.

The bogs and lowlands are another story. They’re under more water now than I’ve ever seen in the spring. Many skunk cabbage spathes and early shoots have become submersibles beneath the lingering floodwaters.
