Ascension Fish and Game Club-(since 1905): ZEC Road to Close up to Little Green Lake

From November 2 to 5th, the ZEC will be closing the road from the main office for road repairs. If you have any ideas about using the cabin at this time, forget about it. Road repairs are sited as the reason for closure. All this is either on their web or fB pages.

Thanksgiving weekend Annie and I had arrived at camp, unloaded the car and lit the wood stove when the first rain drops started.

It was nice to be at the lake again, and the cabin heated up easily.

We enjoyed a warmish 10c evening on the deck before hitting the hay.

Stars were plentiful overnight on several nights.

So those using cabin 3 are aware there seems to be an entry in the NW corner. We blocked it with a piece of wood molding, but mice have been coming through here and made a nest in the wall. Traps were snapping all night and by departure day we felt perhaps that a serious dent has been made in the mouse population?? We'll see in the spring :-)

Saturday AM was clear, we got the tools out to finalize the log repair at the base of cabin 4. It is a that is strictly cosmetic repair.

At some point in the future, seriousness has to be given to both cabins 1 and 4 if these log cabins if they are to remain useable long term.

We finished the log cabin repair and just in time, as the wind and rain came up after lunch as is visible on the lake pictures below.

This lasted most of the evening and into the early morning hours. Sunday morning was bright and clear.

We decided to take an exploratory drive up into the ZEC entry driving a little further than sector 66 on the map. In 30 plus years I have never driven up the other road into the ZEC, so it was a first. The end of the day was spent reading outdoors in rather pleasant temperatures.
