One of the dangers that I dread the most, I think, is coming upon a wildfire on the trail.
Whether it's a grass fire on the prairies, or a forest fire in the mountains, both would be very hard to escape from, especially if it's windy, too, as I'm a slow peddler. In the mountains, one might get pretty close before the signs are noticed.
This fire is a marsh fire in early spring at Demorestville, ON.
Tonight we are having thunder and lightning, and that is what has made me think of it happening while doing the trail.
We'll hope it doesn't happen. Usually the things you worry most about don't.
