An obstacle in our path

This morning as we set off on our walk, we encountered an obstacle in our path.  A large tree had come down during the storm the previous night and lay across the trail.  As we stood before it wondering whether to turn back or not, I moved forward to examine the fallen tree.  The trunk of the tree was fairly thick and high off the ground making it difficult to climb over.  I thought my best chance was to crawl under the trunk to the other side.  However, as I started to squeezed myself under the tree, branches and leaves blocked my exit.  Eventually, Tinkerbelle gave me a leg up and I jumped over the tree to the other side.
