Phase two

Eventually it became easier to access the cabin.

Many years later some logging was done to the north and west of “our” lake. The roads built for logging this area opened it up to traveling by vehicle. We were able to get much closer to “our” lake and no longer required a 4×4 vehicle. However we still needed an ATV to move our supplies from the vehicle down a trail about 100meters to the boat. Load the supplies and kids in the boat, travel across the lake to our dock and then carry all the supplies up the hill to the cabin. More stories and memories made during the many times traversing this trail.

Eventually, exploring the existing road and trail system led us to find an easier trail into our cabin. We now had ATV access right to the cabin door. We could only drive the truck so far and then needed to move all the supplies from the truck to the ATV. We used a trailer with the ATV but often needed to make more than one trip. Of course we had adventures along the way: mechanical issues with the vehicles, trees down on the trail, a water crossing that was treacherous, hills, mud and more mud. Oh the stories I could tell (for another time).
