Hitch 10

Let me start by saying that there is a new section added to Peter’s Ridge trail. It is roughly 2.14 miles of meandering tread that travels through boulder fields, clear cuts, fire road, and wooded areas. This is the first hitch where we have notice the changes from summer to fall with leaves falling faster than we expected. During this hitch we restored 1,100 feet of tread which lead us to our completion of this section.

Our journey is almost at an end
We’ll have stories tell
Of how we survived bear attacks
And how we did so well

This time has come sooner than we thought
The leaves are falling with colors of red and gold
In only a short time
These months will start getting cold

We’ve all learned from this experience
And a lot about each other
A unique group of people
Makes a crew like no other

We learned that if a bear slobbers
And stalks you as if it were diseased
You may end up on an island
With people who have rabies

We have overcome quite a bit
We dealt with the bears and snakes
Avoided them to say the least
Just trying to keep safe

Watching the seasons change
This month and a half will fly by
We’ll go our separate ways
But not before saying goodbye

With new adventures to explore
Chasing after our dreams
Never forgetting the experience
Of being on this trail team.
