Fun Track for Trust with Serpentine

We are on the second leg of this track and I took this picture as it shows almost all of the track. I have marked the track (lines aren't great) but unless you click on the picture to enlarge it, I doubt you will be able to see it. The serpentine area begins just after the round hay bale, (right)and through the little growthy area. The whole track (except the one road crossing) is on dead, brown hayfield, but it was intended to be "different" from what Trust has been working on and more fun for her. She had a sock, a plastic switchplate and an old glove for her articles.
When we reached the serpentine area, I let her line go loose as it was getting caught (below) on twiggy things. However, this picture also shows the curve around quite clearly.



So's she's in the serpentine here, curving around back and forth in front of me. What you can clearly see is how determined she is in this area, and having to work with her nose right down.
Below, she will curve back towards the right and work through the open area.
I put the line on this picture showing this area of the serpentine. After the little flag, it is a regular turn to the left and the next legBelow is her second article, plastic, she had passed it by 2' and zipped back around to nudge it.
This track had 10 legs and 9 corners and was aged just 2 hrs. She seemed to enjoy the change.
