Greenwood Settlement Trail

Here are some photos from last summer of a trail that leads to an abandoned settlement. It starts next to a mountain road.
It climbs and climbs.
Eventually the trail almost disappears.
But of course Socks is always happy to come along!
This is my entry for Scenic Weekends.

    There I was hoping you'd post another of your 'walks' post and you must have heard me. A dog is such a satisfying companion on a walk, they don't try to outstrip you or lag behind and come when called, don't mind standing still while you wield the camera and just share your pleasure in being out in the wild woods.
    Thanks Al, give me a hard to find trail any day!

    This leads to an abandoned settlement? How intriguing. These pictures are wonderful, Al. Thank you so much for sharing.

    Have a lovely Friday!

    What is nice about temperate country forests is the clearing under the trees. If it is in the tropics you wont be able to see beyond 1 meter or you cannot pass through unless you will cut and clear the vegetation. Your dog looks tired hiking, oh he is so beautiful.

    No fear about loosing the trail when you've got a four-legged friend along!

    Trails are always so exciting. You never know where it's going to lead and what all to expect before the journey is completed. Lovely pictures!

    An abandoned settlement sure perked my ears up! Dogs really are good companions.
