Snapping Turtle Along WB&A Trail June 3, 2023 |

Chris Making the Turn WB&A Trail, Odenton, MD June 3, 2023 |
We rode a portion of the WB&A Trail. It was an out and back ride since part of the trail remains closed. I imaged Chris at the turn where we began the return portion of the ride after we had stopped for water and to chat.
The smell of the honeysuckle remains strong in the wooded areas. It is just enjoyable to be assaulted by such a sweet odor as we bike.
We enjoyed a wildlife close encounter along the trail. A snapping turtle was meandering beside the trail and we stopped, along with other bikers, to view the animal and take a few images. The animal does not look happy, but then when does a snapping turtle ever look happy.
The generally gentle grade of the WB&A Trail makes riding enjoyable. Even with an elevation change of 330 feet, for the most part riding the trail is very enjoyable. There are only a couple hills which actually require a significant downshift.
It was a fun ride on a Saturday morning.
