The faster ground speed and the higher heart rate attest to great conditions for snowshoeing: the hard crust kept me afloat above the snow and the lower temperatures kept the pools of meltwater frozen. Ponds and lakes were still open water. I raced the last leg near maximum heart rate and got a pace of 9:00/km.
I gained time taking beaver dam farther W of #7. I now see how close my previous misses were finding #3. On the map there is a pond w/ a ruin to the S (a ruin I've still not found). At that pond I previously missed shooting N, drifting S to nasty cliffs and ravine.
At many points I followed my own elephant tracks, allowing for a good workout. I expect my tracks to be long gone by the time I get back there. Some crazy back-woods skiier was playing on some of my elephant tracks. |

There was too much meltwater beneath the snow on the track. I hope things freeze over before I head for the Gatineau. |
