[@nancyst.john-smith3891]

Great video! I appreciate the conjecture of who, what and when, made the burrows, left the arrowhead or flakes, burned the ground, dropped the ladder out of the landing craft, 😂, etc. My folks used to take advantage of those opportunities on the trail to spin a yarn for us kids. We lived in a rock and concrete cabin with a spring fed cistern for 6 months in 1960. No electric. Dad had just gotten on the Kern County Sheriff’s Department in Mojave, CA, and the pay was poor! We had 2 propane lights, stove and fridge. We were so poor that we ate wild birds and mom bought cracked eggs from the grocer in her weekly shopping trip. He sold them very cheap to her. She fed a family of 5 on $10 a week. I have great memories of playing in the desert, pretending to be an “Indian” and hiking around. I do have to express thanks to the KCSO. Over Dad’s career the pay got better and when he retired he and Mom were blessed with medical benefits and a pension to their death. Job security was a thing!

[@secondact7151]

Beautiful closing shot. I drove from Idaho to Virginia coast and back in my suburban camping the whole way. Not paying for hotels paid my fuel. All fuel was cheaper heading east from Idaho. It got cheaper and cheaper as I went. The way to travel now is look on gas buddy. The states that have the lowest fuel have lots of things to go see. Save the west for another year.

It also gets more expensive as we head south from Montana. You just made a great case for us to finally head east!

[@alanbarlow1525]

Rick, you spoke about your Garmin for having communication when hiking. That made me think about something I learned while boondocking in Colorado this summer (you may already know this)…if you have a cell phone with Wifi Calling capability you can make cell phone calls over your StarLink Wifi. A near by camper let me on his StarLink WiFi and I made several calls that I would have had to drive many miles to cell service to make. It worked great! Won’t help on hikes, but can be very handy in camp.

[@gonagain]

Thank you for mentioning that, Alan. We did make phone calls to our daughter in Montana while out in the wilds of Nevada. We sure are liking the Starlink.

I had that happen once. I was hunting, one of those days where it was overcast with drizzling rain, hadn't seen a squirrel or anything all day. All of a sudden I saw a black cat, but it looked huge. When I got out of the tree, and was walking out, I saw him again but it was just an old Tom from the neighbors down the road- he was out hunting like me.

I do spend more time in any one place to conserve and have made the best of it by exploring deeper into the surroundings and finding even More Goodies.

[@gonagain]

Not sure if we'll be trekking south this fall and winter. We'll be sure to let you all know if we do, be nice to meet up!

[@dfpytwa]

It's probably just a matter of perspective. Try setting a beer can on the hood of your truck, walk out 50 yards and see what you think about it in comparison to the size of your truck that you are familiar with. Then set another beer can where you are standing, walk back to your truck and see what you think of it with no objects of known size to compare it to. I've been trained to be a shooter since I was a little kid being raised mostly by my grandad who was an old cowboy, US marshal for awhile and gunslinger. Then the Marines, then doing some spook work for the government and a couple stints doing private military. I can pretty much eyeball range objects out to 500 yards just by the way the muscles feel in my eyes while settling on a full 3d image with both eyes so I have never really experienced that effect. Just not having any objects of known size to compare it to in the sticks can create the illusion of it being large since it is the predominate thing catching your eye is what I suspect.

[@gonagain]

Great explanation, thank you!

[@wrbruce6100]

Good to see you out and exploring again. Do you think the reason a can looks so big is that everywhere you look it’s similar and a can sticks out of the background like a sore thumb. Is the pinion pine the one with the high priced pine nuts. If so do you ever get around them when the nuts are ready to eat. You would think the Indians would not leave a trail of flakes. If an enemy come across them ,the flakes would lead right to them. Great place to camp. Take care

Here's the hat I wear: Henschel Crushable Soft Mesh Aussie Breezer Hat : amzn.to/2nRAO4R The fire ring was out and away from overhanging tree branches and out in the dirt but most people don't have fires when it's summertime and it's dry out. This being National Forest land, there are signs posted on fire danger as well. I'm not sure about the light reflection on objects but that sounds plausible to me.
