Road and 19

Escape to cottages

Several requests about ability to drive into ELCA territory.  Well, that is impossible at present.  Also, using a snowmobile or atv presents some problems on icy hills.

But, 911 Clarke is a good place to park and snowmobile into East Bay, or to walk into the cottage as this photo shows.

Mill Hill

Mill Hill is quite difficult due to ice.  Sliding off the road into the ditch or over the steep side is not so nice.  More difficult to get back up.
Not recommended to travel to the island.  Bring a shovel if you try.  Two vehicles had to use dirt from the ditch to get traction on the ice.  Yuk.

Rain

Maple syrup day 1

It's that time of year again.  Sap is pouring out on day 1.

Mill hill

Deep snow

Well, the last few days dumped about 10 inches of powder snow and drifted it with some wind.  Causeway hill that has an ice layer under the snow made it difficult for a snowmobile without studs to climb hills.
The pulling sled had to be disconnected to barely reach the top of the hill.  Yuk for living in the bush.
