I have been somewhat enamored with this area lately and have been walking the trek to Bob's waypoint India Sink from 206 for the last 4 weeks in a row, usually on a Wednesday night.
The deer flies are now enough to make you suicidal but with plenty of 25% deet Deepwoods aftershave I am off to the races.
The first few weeks showed a lot of water still in the woods and a few spots we had been to on our 2009 hike were completely underwater.
Tonight however, the low spots are starting to dry out and evidence of truck damage in areaas where no vehicle belongs is coming to light.
We had noted before the heavy truck and ATV damage that could be seen on Bing maps and I tracked down the entry points tonight. The pictures appear elsewher in this thread.
This is at the waypoint plowboy and the tire tracks from last season are staring to surface.
If anyone doubts the value of these mudholes, I flushed a whole young family of mallards and a wood duck out of this hole on my walk up to the spot. Two weeks ago it was screaming with frogs.
At Inda Sink I found a 20' wide road cut through the woods to the waters edge.
The blueberries are really coming in strong and by next week, I will be bringing a sald bowl to collect them.
The gold at the end of the rainbow.
Time to start applying some cedar tannins to the beard me thinks.
The flies are almost enough to keep me out of the woods this time of year but the peacefulness and beauty keep me coming back.
I once clocked green heads chasing me on my motorcycle at 28mph, around that speed I was able to distance my self from the cloud (or they got tired).
