We ride the rolling fields and ditches from Duck Lake up to one of the Nisbet Forest entrances near an abandoned hiway from the early '70s.

We take what we believe is the
Bucket Stop
Trail down to the
South Branch.

It's -30 something
Weather

North off the river, up the 3RD Meridian we go, and enter
Adamson Lake from the south.
