Short Cut


Near Devils Lake I attempted a short cut that would have subtracted 10 miles from the day. My map showed a road going through a wildlife refuge. About a mile into the refuge I came upon a herd of buffalo. I know nothing of buffalo and I didn't know if the buffalo in front of me were tame or dangerous. I waiting for 45 minutes for the herd to move or for a vehicle to drive by. My plan was to wait for a vehicle and then peddle as close to it as possible as "we" drove through the herd. The vehicle never showed up. I thought it best to turn around and peddle the 10 miles.
