The dirt path has grass growing on it in patches. From the look of things, it is not traveled often.

After you proceed several meters down the path, you come to something interesting. A tree is growing right in the middle of the path. Now, it's not that this dirt footpath has been perfectly straight up until now; it has dodged around many a tree. But here the path appears to simply pass beneath the tree, in a fashion somewhat suggestive of a Charles Addams cartoon.

You successfully edge around the tree, and back onto the path.
