Morning intervals on the frost-covered Creekside Trail System. At the four-way intersection I made a navigation error and chose the wrong trail (I have made this same mistake before!). I started down the righthand trail, but changed my mind and went back to the middle trail. I knew it was probably wrong, but if the righthand trail was an error, I would end up at the road too soon (boring), whereas if the middle trail was wrong I would end up too high and eventually have to cross the creek. Better to end up higher, and then compensate.

Well of course my instinct was right and the middle trail was the wrong one, so when I reached the creek, instead of crossing it, I went cross-country through the dense forest (with downed logs scattered everywhere) and eventually found the lower trail. I hope to return here again in a few days and take closer looks at the various trail intersections.

Natarajasana (Dancer) sequence at the cliff overlooking the creek, and I really like this asana and the way it stretches the quads.

Ashwa sanchalanasana sequence (runner's lunge).
