Tiger Mountain/Section Line 6/27/2020

Round Lake

I told myself last weekend that, rain or shine, I would hike on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. And today I kept my promise to myself. Monday and Wednesday were beautiful but today there was a light rain most of the way. But I just put on a rain jacket and hat and trudged on.

I would like to keep up a 3-a-week hiking schedule. I need the workouts.

Today I just did the Tiger Mountain/Section Line loop where I go up the Section Line Trail and down the Nook Trail. And etc., numerous trails involved but on the ground it is just a 4.5 mile loop. The Section Line is .8 mile and fairly steep the entire way. That is the attraction on this hike.

But you do get to see a few little sights, including an interesting looking white fungus:

Not a jaw-dropping hike today but it beat sitting on the couch worried about dysfunctional White Houses and murderous viruses.
