It's good to live here in free and liberal Europe...

These first are from when I dropped my beloved GF to work. Some of the storm damage from last Fall. Most of the trees have already been cleaned off, but there is still plenty laying around.

Heres from the walkabout.
I haven't gone up this logger road earlier, so it was like a mini-adventure too. This is about a mile from where I live.

After maybe half an hour of walking on the road I turned in to the woods. Immediately found an old, possible, bear track and some moose droppings. Since I found no moose tracks I assume that the moose had been there months earlier.
Bear track, maybe... The picture is a bit bad, but the claw marks are there and the shape is from a right back paw.

Moose droppings... AKA, signs of pray in the area.

Some burl on birch tree.

And another burl on another tree.

I kept going, and saw a lake on my right side.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_Z...2/IMAG0841.jpg
And then I found this spruce tree near the shore of the lake, maybe three meters from the shore.

I put my backpack next to it to give a size comparison. That's one big and old spruce in a managed forest!
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_Z...0/IMAG0844.jpg
I decided to "camp" under the spruce and started to build a fire. Under the tree, on the ground there was good amount of relatively dry branches. I used a firesteel and cotton balls to make the fire. And some birch bark I carry in my fire kit.

I thought to make some tea..

I had a poncho under me to keep my @$$ dry while sitting on the wet ground.

I'll add more pics from the walk back home soonish...
Thanks Batch.
Here are more pics, as I promised.
Time to put out the fire.

The place where I was is used to be a road back in 18th-century. It went around the lake. Not much left of it these days. I took a picture to both ways.
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_Z...2/IMAG0857.jpg
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_Z...2/IMAG0856.jpg
I packed my stuff, made sure the camp site is clean and too off, I always leave a clean campsite.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_Z...2/IMAG0862.jpg
Sun was getting lower, about 4h of day light left. The trees made the forest a bit dark in places. But very pretty...
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_Z...0/IMAG0863.jpghttps://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_Z...2/IMAG0859.jpg
After a short walk I found more signs of dinner!
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_Z...0/IMAG0866.jpg
And once I got up on a small hill just next to the road, I found even better signs, though from before the snow... Moose tracks!

On the road, walking back home.
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_Z...2/IMAG0872.jpg
Found some fungus on a rotten birch.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_Z...0/IMAG0873.jpg
Spring sure is coming, there is water on the road.. Looks nice with the sunlight though...

Got to the crossroads. Now I'm about 300m from home...
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_Z...0/IMAG0880.jpg
It was a good trip.
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_Z...0/IMAG0882.jpg
Thanks :) I really, really enjoyed those :)
Fantastic pics and description.

Looks like a great time and a great place to take a walk.
Thank you all. It sure is great to have such a place to escape to. Glassing you enjoyed the pics.
