Super Bowl Sunday today, Loop!<\/em><\/p>\n

Really!\u00a0 Who’s playing?<\/em><\/p>\n

Broncos and the Seahawks.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Dingoes aren’t playing!?<\/em><\/p>\n

Umm, no, not this year.<\/em><\/p>\n

Phooey!\u00a0 We aren’t going to lay around wasting the whole day watching it then, are we?\u00a0 I love playing football and scoring touchdowns, but just watching is so dull.\u00a0 I would watch it if the Dingoes were playing, though.<\/em><\/p>\n

Well, what would you like to do instead?<\/em><\/p>\n

Can we do an expedition?\u00a0 Please, please, please! \u00a0Can we?\u00a0 Can we?<\/em><\/p>\n

Kind of a cold day for it, but yeah, we can go.<\/em><\/p>\n

Several concrete barriers blocked the way forward, but left enough room to park the G6 at a little pullout along Sheridan Lake Road (10:36 AM, 29\u00b0F).\u00a0 It was still another mile or so to the turn S onto Boulder Hill Road, but this ought to be about far enough.\u00a0 Lupe and SPHP walked downhill\u00a0going NE along Sheridan Lake Road.<\/p>\n

Lupe soon left the road to explore a forested draw\u00a0coming down from the NW.\u00a0 She was in the upper end of the Dutch Creek valley.\u00a0 Dutch Creek is only a tiny, mile long\u00a0seasonal stream that flows into Spring Creek a little\u00a0farther S.\u00a0 Lupe found no water in it today.<\/p>\n

At first,\u00a0the Carolina Dog\u00a0wasn’t following any sort of road or trail going NW up the draw, but she eventually found a trail on the NE side.\u00a0 Near the end of the valley,\u00a0the trail\u00a0angled N and climbed\u00a0up over the rim of the draw\u00a0onto a flat area.\u00a0 Most of this large flat area was forested, too, but Lupe found a spot\u00a0toward the SE\u00a0where she could see Boulder Hill<\/a><\/span> (5,331 ft.)<\/span><\/strong>.\u00a0 Nearly 3 miles to the S, Boulder Hill\u00a0looked considerably higher than where she was now.<\/p>\n

Up on the flat ground, the trail\u00a0Lupe had been following\u00a0went\u00a0NE.\u00a0\u00a0She stuck with it for only a short distance.\u00a0\u00a0There wasn’t much of a plan for Expedition No. 76. \u00a0SPHP was hoping Lupe\u00a0might\u00a0find the mysterious Pink & Black Checkered Trail she had come across on Expedition No. 75.\u00a0 She could then continue her explorations farther W.\u00a0 However, it seemed likely Lupe needed to go N or W from here, and this trail was turning E.<\/p>\n

Lupe left\u00a0the trail\u00a0heading N, but soon had to turn W to avoid losing a bunch of elevation.\u00a0 She found more trails and wound up close to where she’d climbed out of the draw, having made a big circle to the NE through the forest.\u00a0 A little to the N, there had been a trail going W, so Lupe went back to take it.\u00a0 This new trail continued W for a little while, then zig-zagged N up a slope to an area which seemed vaguely familiar.<\/p>\n

The trail had reached an old logging road on the upper S side of a hill.\u00a0 Hadn’t Lupe climbed\u00a0this very same hill\u00a0to get a view late in the day\u00a0on Expedition No. 75?\u00a0 SPHP was almost certain of it.\u00a0 Lupe followed the logging road W.\u00a0 She arrived at a junction at a saddle.\u00a0 Yes, Lupe had been here before!\u00a0 On Expedition No. 75, the Pink & Black Checkered Trail had led Lupe to\u00a0this point coming up from\u00a0the ravine to the N.\u00a0 She could now go N back down\u00a0the ravine to the Victoria Creek valley.<\/p>\n

Lupe followed a logging road\u00a0on her way down the ravine.\u00a0 Pink & Black Checkered markers were tied to some of the trees along the way.\u00a0 Lupe lost 400 ft. of elevation over the course of a mile before reaching Victoria Creek in a larger valley.\u00a0 The creek bed was dry and full of stones.\u00a0 This was as far W as she had gotten on Expedition No. 75.<\/p>\n

The logging road turned W as it reached the Victoria Creek valley.\u00a0 Lupe followed the road\u00a0W, but saw no more Pink & Black Checkered markers from here on.\u00a0 She had only gone another 100 yards, though, when a gravel road came into view ahead.\u00a0 The logging trail went right to it.\u00a0 This had to be a USFS Road, but\u00a0no signs or markers were in sight.<\/p>\n

Victoria Creek valley split in two\u00a0here.\u00a0 Lupe could follow the USFS Road either SW or N depending on which of the\u00a0two\u00a0branches she wanted to explore.\u00a0 SPHP led her N.\u00a0 The road went around a bend,\u00a0gradually gaining elevation and curving NW.\u00a0 Lupe quickly arrived at another intersection with another gravel road coming in from the NE.\u00a0 A marker showed that road was USFS Road No. 159.<\/p>\n

Time for a break.\u00a0 At the intersection,\u00a0Lupe had\u00a0Taste of the Wild.\u00a0 SPHP ate an apple while checking the\u00a0old USFS map.\u00a0\u00a0The map showed that\u00a0No. 159 is Victoria Lake Road.\u00a0 The road Lupe had followed to this point was No. 162.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Lupe waits to hear SPHP’s verdict on where she is now? She was at the intersection of Victoria Lake Road and USFS Road No. 162.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

After the break, Lupe and SPHP headed NW on Victoria Lake Road.\u00a0 The USFS map showed that the Brush Creek trailhead of Centennial Trail No. 89 was only another 3 miles in this direction.<\/p>\n

Following the wide gravel road was a bit dull, so when a jeep trail appeared paralleling it closer to Victoria Creek, Lupe took the jeep trail instead.\u00a0 She soon made a discovery!\u00a0 Lupe found a piece of a deer leg, with the hoof still attached.\u00a0 By all appearances, the poor deer had met its unfortunate end quite a while ago, but Lupe considered the deer leg a\u00a0most\u00a0valuable find.\u00a0 She trotted along carrying the deer leg proudly for quite a distance before finally tiring of it.<\/p>\n

The trek along the jeep trail was easy and scenic.\u00a0 Beyond Victoria Lake Road\u00a0on the L (SW)\u00a0was a high forested hill.\u00a0 To the R (NE) a long wall of rock kept Victoria Creek confined in the little valley Lupe was exploring.\u00a0 The valley was\u00a0nearly flat and only partially forested. \u00a0Lupe was gaining elevation slowly.\u00a0 Occasionally the jeep trail crossed Victoria Creek, which had flowing water some places, but not others.\u00a0 Lupe had no problems crossing the creek.<\/p>\n

Once in a while, the terrain temporarily forced Lupe off the jeep trail and up onto Victoria Lake Road.\u00a0 During one of these stints, a side road appeared leading up another valley to the SW.\u00a0 The side road had several inches of snow on it.\u00a0 A marker said this was USFS Road No. 159.2E.\u00a0 A\u00a0couple of boulders barred this route to vehicles.<\/p>\n

No. 159.2E looked intriguing. \u00a0Lupe\u00a0passed between the boulders, leapt over Victoria Creek, and started following the snowy road.\u00a0\u00a0She had to leap over Victoria Creek\u00a0a couple more times before it disappeared underground, or at least beneath the snow.\u00a0 The snow was deeper than SPHP had thought.\u00a0 Soon No. 159.2E all but vanished beneath the snow, too.\u00a0 Only a single track trail remained.<\/p>\n

Lupe was romping in a snowy field on her way\u00a0to an inviting sunlit part of the valley when SPHP\u00a0was surprised to see\u00a0a Centennial Trail marker over by the edge of the\u00a0forest to the S.\u00a0 Lupe had reached the trail sooner than expected!\u00a0 Which way to the Brush Creek trailhead?\u00a0 SPHP was almost certain it was still to the N, but had Lupe follow the Centennial Trail along the edge of the forest S for a little way to be certain.\u00a0 No, it wasn’t over here.\u00a0 A quick check of the USFS map confirmed that it had to be farther N.<\/p>\n

The American Dingo never did make it to that sunlit part of the\u00a0valley.\u00a0 Instead, she followed Centennial Trail No. 89 going N.\u00a0 She crossed Victoria Lake Road again on the way, and arrived at the Brush Creek trailhead down in a deep valley.\u00a0 She continued past the trailhead following a snow-packed road.<\/p>\n

The road\u00a0wound NE\u00a0below increasingly impressive high rock walls while losing elevation steadily.\u00a0 The deep valley\u00a0became a shady, chilly canyon.\u00a0 Although Lupe had explored virtually the entire Centennial Trail way back in 2012 when she was still practically a puppy, SPHP couldn’t remember exactly where the trail left this canyon.\u00a0 After going some distance, the road started turning E.<\/p>\n

SPHP began to suspect the USFS map was wrong.\u00a0 It showed the Brush Creek trailhead along Victoria Lake Road.\u00a0 It finally dawned on SPHP that the trailhead is actually along a minor side road.\u00a0 A more careful examination of the map confirmed this was a possibility.\u00a0 Ack!\u00a0 Lupe was going the wrong way!<\/p>\n

Lupe and SPHP turned around.\u00a0 Lupe went all the way back past the Brush Creek trailhead again.\u00a0 The road gained elevation steadily the whole time.\u00a0\u00a0Lupe finally reached a junction with Victoria Lake Road.\u00a0 Whew!\u00a0 Back on track.<\/p>\n

By now, SPHP had decided it\u00a0might be fun\u00a0for Lupe to circle around to the W, and then\u00a0S and E\u00a0through the Bald Hills.\u00a0 The Bald Hills are a\u00a0few square miles\u00a0of rolling grasslands located\u00a0NW of Twin Sisters<\/a><\/span> (5,244 ft.)<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0and E of Hwy 385.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Lupe went W on Victoria Lake Road looking for USFS Road No. 161, which would take her to the N\u00a0edge of the Bald Hills.<\/p>\n

Lupe hadn’t gone far on Victoria Lake Road at all, when a side road appeared going WSW up a lovely open valley where tiny Brush Creek originates.\u00a0 It was tempting to follow this side road, but SPHP could see a marker for another side road not too much farther ahead.\u00a0 This second road proved to be USFS Road No. 161,\u00a0the one\u00a0Lupe\u00a0had been looking for.<\/p>\n

No. 161 climbed up onto a small ridgeline where it went up and down over a series of small hills continuing W through the forest.\u00a0 After more than 0.5 mile, the road\u00a0emerged from\u00a0the forest.\u00a0 Lupe\u00a0had reached\u00a0the N edge of the Bald Hills.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
When USFS Road No. 161 finally emerged from the forest, Lupe found herself along the N edge of the Bald Hills. Photo looks SE.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
The Bald Hills are 2 or 3 square miles of rolling grasslands within the Black Hills National Forest. They are E of Hwy 385 several miles S of Pactola Lake. The highest of the Twin Sisters<\/a><\/span> (5,244 ft.)<\/span><\/strong> is seen in the distance on the R. Photo looks SE.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The open views across the prairie were fun to see after spending much of the day in the forest.\u00a0 Lupe continued along No. 161 as it curved around the NW\u00a0corner of the Bald Hills.\u00a0\u00a0Eventually she reached an intersection with\u00a0USFS Road No. 160.1, which went E.<\/p>\n

The slanting rays of sunlight said Lupe was as far W as she should go today.\u00a0 She was a long way\u00a0from the G6.\u00a0 SPHP was beginning\u00a0to realize Lupe wouldn’t\u00a0get back before dark.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
USFS Road No. 160.1 heads E from its intersection with No. 161. Lupe took this road on her way back to the G6, but only stayed on it partway through the Bald Hills. Photo looks ESE.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Lupe\u00a0went E on\u00a0No. 160.1 for a little way, but began to lose significant elevation going down a draw.\u00a0 The map showed the road would eventually turn S.\u00a0 The Carolina Dog\u00a0would have to regain all this lost elevation as the road climbed back up to the pass between Twin Sisters.<\/p>\n

Hoping to avoid at least some elevation loss, Lupe left the road taking a shortcut going SE directly toward Twin Sisters.\u00a0 This SE route\u00a0proved to be\u00a0so up and down it was doubtful whether any real net benefit was gained.\u00a0 Lupe did save some distance, however.<\/p>\n

As Lupe neared Twin Sisters, a rowdy flock of crows captured her attention.\u00a0 They flew off as Lupe ran over to bark at them.\u00a0 By the time she came running back, SPHP had reached No. 160.1 at the top of the pass.\u00a0 From here, the road went SSE between Twin Sisters\u00a0losing elevation steadily again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The trek down No. 160.1 between Twin Sisters looked inviting, but with the sun getting lower by the minute, SPHP thought maybe it was best to check the map.\u00a0 It showed No. 160.1 would go 1.5 miles before reaching No. 162.\u00a0 Lupe would then have to follow No. 162 another 2.5 miles NE just to get back to the\u00a0Pink & Black Checkered Trail.<\/p>\n

On the other paw, cutting almost straight E to Boone\u00a0Draw\u00a0would save Lupe nearly 1.5 miles compared to taking No. 160.1 any farther.\u00a0 Given the time of day, this was clearly Lupe’s best option.<\/p>\n

Lupe and SPHP went E, skirting around the N slope of the NE Twin Sister.\u00a0 Soon Lupe was E of the mountain, traveling down the long hillside.\u00a0 Near the bottom, she came to\u00a0Centennial Trail No. 89 again.\u00a0 She crossed it continuing E looking for Boone Draw.\u00a0 On a sunlit ridge, Lupe paused for a last look back at the Bald Hills.<\/p>\n

After taking a few photos, SPHP saw red on Lupe’s fur.\u00a0 Blood!\u00a0 Lupe had blood on her right rear leg near the knee.\u00a0 Closer examination revealed a nasty little gash.\u00a0 A small\u00a0flap of skin and fur was\u00a0hanging\u00a0loose\u00a0from the flesh.\u00a0\u00a0 The wound beneath looked painful, but not too deep.\u00a0 Where\u00a0had this happened?\u00a0 Lupe didn’t say.<\/p>\n

SPHP rinsed off the blood with water, but\u00a0had no way to treat or even wrap the wound.\u00a0 Lupe was what, maybe 5 miles still from the G6?\u00a0 She was going to have to put up with the pain.\u00a0 No other choice.\u00a0 Now it was even more important to put an end to Expedition No. 76.\u00a0 Lupe and SPHP hurried on.<\/p>\n

Lupe went E over mostly barren ridges and hills.\u00a0 Fortunately, her\u00a0leg injury didn’t seem to bother her much.\u00a0 American Dingoes are tough!\u00a0 Once in a while she stopped to lick\u00a0the wound\u00a0briefly.\u00a0 The rest of the time she ran around exploring as if nothing was wrong.\u00a0 She chased a few deer, and came racing back happy as she could be.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Despite her wounded leg, Lupe ran around as if nothing had happened. She stopped briefly now and then to lick the wound, but only for a moment or two.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A small valley appeared ahead near a forested hill.\u00a0 As Lupe got closer, SPHP could see a dirt road on the far side near the trees.\u00a0 Lupe followed the road ESE down the valley.\u00a0 The farther she went, the bigger the valley became, and the more confidence SPHP had that Lupe had found her way into Boone Draw.<\/p>\n

After going a mile or so down the valley, Lupe came to a stream.\u00a0 The stream was tiny, but had created a\u00a0gigantic ice flow.\u00a0 A sheet of ice covered the entire road for 100 feet.\u00a0 Not far beyond the ice flow,\u00a0Lupe reached a good gravel road – No. 162!\u00a0 A marker showed that Lupe had been following No. 162.1A, confirming she had just come down Boone Draw.<\/p>\n

Lupe’s shortcut had worked!\u00a0\u00a0Even so,\u00a0the last rays of sunlight had faded from the highest hills.\u00a0 The temperature was dropping.\u00a0 Lupe still had a mile to go to reach the Pink & Black Checkered Trail.\u00a0 No time to waste.\u00a0 Onward!<\/p>\n

Perhaps anxiety caused the time to pass slowly, but it seemed to take far longer than it should have to reach the Pink & Black Checkered Trail.\u00a0 Lupe followed the logging road up the steep ravine heading S out of the Victoria Creek valley.\u00a0 Stars were\u00a0shining by the time Lupe reached the intersection at the\u00a0saddle at the top.\u00a0 Gloom of night was closing in.<\/p>\n

From the intersection, Lupe took the logging road going E.\u00a0 She\u00a0came to\u00a0where the trail left it.\u00a0 SPHP was relieved Lupe had made it this far, thinking\u00a0she wouldn’t\u00a0have any problem finding her way back to the G6 from here.\u00a0 Lupe reached the switchbacks.\u00a0 Down, down into darkness she went\u00a0by the faint light of\u00a0a little\u00a0flashlight.<\/p>\n

The forest was black as midnight.\u00a0 Lupe was losing elevation fast.\u00a0 She was heading SE, which was the right direction, but everything\u00a0looked different in the dark.\u00a0 Lupe had lost a lot of elevation.\u00a0 The trail turned NE and began to climb.\u00a0 Was this right?\u00a0 SPHP went only a little way up before Lupe acted concerned.\u00a0 She wanted to go back down.<\/p>\n

The Carolina Dog was probably right.\u00a0 SPHP returned to the lowest point on the trail.\u00a0 Lupe\u00a0abandoned\u00a0the trail\u00a0going SE down a ravine.\u00a0 The ravine gradually broadened out.\u00a0 Lupe and SPHP picked a way down through cold, snowy woods.\u00a0 Other than a barbed wire fence, Lupe came to no obstacles.\u00a0 Suddenly Lupe was standing on Sheridan Lake Road!<\/p>\n

Which way to the G6?\u00a0 Lupe\u00a0turned W, going uphill.\u00a0 Five minutes later, the G6 appeared (6:33 PM, 14\u00b0F).\u00a0 Awesome!\u00a0 Expedition No. 76 was over.<\/p>\n

The Broncos and Seahawks were still playing when Lupe arrived at Grandma’s house.\u00a0 Middle of the 3rd quarter …<\/p>\n

Yeowch!\u00a0 You sure made the right call on the Super Bowl, Looper!<\/em><\/p>\n

Yes?\u00a0 What’s happening?<\/em><\/p>\n

Game of the century, if you’re a Seahawks fan!\u00a0 Depths of despair for Bronco fans, and a total snooze fest for everyone else.\u00a0 Seahawks are up 29-zip!<\/em><\/p>\n

Ah-ha!\u00a0 Perhaps you can tear yourself away from it then to look at my leg?<\/em><\/p>\n

Absolutely!<\/em><\/p>\n

The wound looked icky.\u00a0 The flap of loose fur and skin\u00a0was gone,\u00a0torn completely away somewhere\u00a0along the trail, leaving only red, bloody, exposed muscle.\u00a0 Fortunately, the wound wasn’t deep.\u00a0 SPHP cleaned the wound, then\u00a0sprayed Vetericyn on it.\u00a0 The Vetericyn must have stung.\u00a0 Lupe started licking it off immediately.<\/p>\n

The next morning, SPHP intended to take Lupe to the vet.\u00a0 By light of day, though, her wound looked so much better, she didn’t have to go.<\/p>\n

Good news, Loopster!\u00a0 Looks like you’re gonna live!<\/em><\/p>\n

Thought so.\u00a0 All the same, I hope the Dingoes make the Super Bowl next year.\u00a0 If they do, maybe I will just stay home and watch the game!<\/em><\/p>\n
