We decided to try a good looking logging road from the west on sat imagery. This worked really well. The road is truly a skidder path, with tire ruts 2-3 feet deep on either side of a raised middle - not something I've seen a lot of. We mostly walked on the raised middle, but it was remarkably easy and had minimal vegetation. Woods above the clearcut were an odd mix of thick stuff and open moose lanes. Found the jar and took a similar route down.
50 min round trip. |
