"...On the so-called boxwood path we walk past a number of boxwood trees. Unlike some garden specimens, however, these have not been artfully trimmed, but have retained their natural wild growth. This is the northernmost occurrence of the wild boxwood. Unfortunately, even the candidates in the wild are not safe from the boxwood igniters, which leave their destructive traces.
The constant ups and downs of this hike will also leave their mark. I can already imagine the sore muscles that will almost certainly make themselves known tomorrow morning..."
