Porcupine Hills (avoiding the rain) Solo Ride

Calgary and all of my usual riding areas were under a big storm cloud all morning, so I headed south for Porcupine Hills. An area I've never been to because it's a long ride to get there, and it's largely uninteresting. I did take a few little detours here and there, but I've snipped off the most boring bits from the shared track.
Once I made it to the PLUZ I told myself I'd take it easy and not do anything crazy, being that I was alone and it was drizzling and threatening to turn into a full on downpour (it never did). I ended up riding some ATV trail, and it was going great until I found the thick, deep mud that all the riding areas near me seem to be so full of. Ended up EXTREMELY stuck in about a foot of mud, but I got myself turned around...
Seems like there is a ton to explore in the area and I look forward to going back.
