Birch Hills Derby
We pull out of MacDowall at about 10 am, heading due east, cross-country for the
South Branch River valley. We had thought that the Birch Hills poker derby
would of been nice, but we got pretty casual and just stopped at a
restaurant in town for a nice "sit down meal" and headed towards the Weldon
Ferry crossing. With the round trip, fuel was just OK getting back to Birch
Hills, to refill a 3rd time for the trip back to Macdowall. To Weldon and back
to Macdowall we crossed the derby route several times.
Catching site of some snow dust on the horizon, then running down some straggler
in the middle of no where............occurred a couple of times. We followed
some older tracks along the South Branch
and enjoyed an unofficial "tour". |
