Another Forest Bushwhack

Still no ID, but I think I've IDd it before
We got into the forest fairly early for a bushwhack this morning, and we went further than we have in the past.  The "trail" is a strenuous up-and-down and quite energy demanding, and today, like days in the past, we were unable to retrace our outbound route on the inbound leg despite placing cairns in strategic spots.  We had a good outing nonetheless.

After we got back to the cabin and gave Frio and Willow their post-trek treats we went out to finish the yard work we started yesterday.  It didn't take long, and we did a good job of cutting grass and weeds.

A few minutes ago (it's 2:30 p.m. now) it started raining again, at times fairly hard.  The sun is shining so I'm going to look for a rainbow.
