Beautiful run on the backcountry loop of Antelope Island! Started at the White Rock Bay trailhead. Ran my normal portion of the figure-8 loop deal, and was pretty excited that the mud was very minimal. Was rounding a corner near my favorite view area, and suddenly noticed a Bison about 15 feet away! Good thing I didn't look up any later! It didn't look so pleasantly surprised, so I turned around and went the alternate way. Ran up the switchbacks closest to the bay, and decided to make it more of an out-and-back because I had made up a lot of distance by turning around, and I didn't want to encounter the angry beast again. Anyhow, all in all, great, beautiful run.
