I went to the western edge of Whitehorse/ChevalBlanc rpaids woods. I went with the intention of taking out the stolen telephones, my primary mission. Lots of mosquitoes, my DEET repellant once applied , repelled them.
As I had commented before, the plants are growing tremendously and I got lost for a while looking for the telephones location. I underestimated how deep, or far north they were in, in this section.

I was surprised this trail was still underwater.

Along with losing their location, I also forgot how heavy the telephones are. I had built a new container for my bike and doubted it could carry the weight. I settled on taking the telephones to the trail for later pick up. I will take them one by one with my regular milk-box container, a much stronger container.

Ants were living in one of the telephones are they were not happy of the move.

During my travels of the park I found three adult turtles.

Garbage. Some less than intelligent school child dumped their school papers in two locations, less than intelligent because their name is all over the evidence. I cleaned it up for them.

I also took out a plastic chair and three metal bars. My new container was full. I took it all to Brook park. My cameras battery was out of power so I could not take a photo of the full container going into the city container.
