Cycling 1:10:00 [3]

Branch Avenue Metro to Rosaryville State Park and back.

Hiking 4:30:00 [1]

Walking more trails with the GPS at Rosaryville. I've now covered what must be more than 95% of the trail network. Though I'm now pretty sure I'm getting consistently slightly better claimed accuracy from the GPS now that the leaves are off so I'm debating whether it's work walking much of the trail network again. The near complete coverage is, of course, dependent on the mountain bikers not feeling too energetic. I ran across what I eventually decided was a trail construction project of theirs - a series of switchbacks down the side of a large hill marked with small pink and orange flags. The first pink one had "LEDGE UP FILTER WITH LOCUST BOX" written on it. Fortunately for my poor non-MTB-lingo-marinated brain, not all of the subsequent notes were quite so cryptic.

Got into the woods just east of the Mount Airy Mansion entrance for the first time. They're very nice if somewhat short on point features. A good thing since so much of the park is thick and would be useless if it weren't for the confusing profusion of trails.
