Max Patch is a beautiful spot to visit at just about any time of day.

 

 

We’ve been up here before but this time we encountered the trail guards. Yes, trail guards.

 

 

They jumped out at a check point

 

 

and demanded a password on order to pass.

 

 

I begged for a clue.  They said no you must guess.

 

 

So I sat down to think.

 

 

I while I was thinking I asked if they were practicing being cows eating grass.

 

 

“Cows! that’s it!” They shouted.

 

 

Then we were free to pass.

 

 

Nice meeting you two little trail rascals, hope I see you again sometime.
