And I was a little excited, my son having left me his car for a month, to finally get out and do some exploring.
On google maps I noticed Blaze Creek FSR, which leads off and through many switchbacks eventually comes to the west shore on the east arm of Kootenay Lake.
I'd tried it years before, failed, the road was closed off, deactivated, and so I hoped that somehow it had been reactivated.
A long drive to no results. Still closed off, and so exploring a few other places I've explored countless times before, I'm going to need a few days off in a row, time to gather up my pack and walk into the woods, it's the only way. Find new horizons, new treasures, this summer so far has been a bust but it's all there, there are too many signs and wonders.
