On towards the Tunxis, to cover from Ski Sundown on Ratlum Road to Route 219, and back.  Total of 8.2-miles (I wandered a bit on the way back exploring).  Awesome day, but the dark clouds kept appearing and there was a threat of rain, so despite feeling like I could have stayed in the woods forever, I stopped when I was back at the car.

Grabbed many photographs of rock piles, cairns, pieces of stonewalls throughout, but in particular between the two high points 8/10's and 1-mile north of Ski Sundown.  This is the low area with a stream running though it.
