I accompanied Alex for 2 hours of her three hour mega exercise, shadowing her on the first pick, orienteering my own for the crux bit (made an enormo mistake as I switched from coach mode to orienteer mode, as always), then we swapped places for the line, and then I abandoned ship and walked back. Lovely day to be out in the woods. Highlight was our AOWN moment, when I saw a tree struck my lightning with two huge branches split off, and noticed the hole left behind was full of animal food and droppings. Then looked around the base, and the entire base was surrounded by a metre or so of a thick carpet of droppings the whole way round the base! Then Alex told me to look up and there was a black/dark brown critter with it's head stuck in a hole up the top of the tree, trying to hide from us. We think it was a porcupine. It was awesome.
