Beautiful place i like the trail

[@marcosavila8215]

I begin to get in love with your channel, you know how to live my Dear man, after watching the DCS video posted 2 days ago, i just investigated more your content and i was very moved how healthy aND beautiful your life is, May the good Lord be with you!! i want to be in your situation when i get around your age, im not that far, im 50 now. Much love from Portugal-azores

excellent

[@marcosavila8215]

what a beautiful place to explore i understand now why you forgot DCS..lol but at night do some flying with us, we will get you a new PC you need it.

Fun watching the otters, thanks! How does the Addmotor do in the wind gusts? Pretty solid, is my bet. I have the E-310 CityTri that doesn't have those nice gears, I wonder if I can retro-fit a 3 speed cassette, derailleur and thumb shifter. I get too much ghost pedaling at level 3 or higher, I'd like to be able to assist at higher speeds too. These Addmotor trikes are so well build, it's like driving a sports car to me, lol

No problem with wind. I am not even going to try it if there is any ice. We get bad Black Ice. I don't know about the shifter. I stay in 2-3 mode. My legs have gotten real bad. I can only walk about 1/4 mile using a cane. My outside activity time is about 3-4 hours max. By late afternoon I am pretty crippled up. I have much pain at night.

Showing the rock formation screen shot and rough geographic location to chatgpt yielded this response: Given that this formation is near Sitka, Alaska, it's highly probable that you're observing volcanic or glacially influenced geological features. Sitka lies in a region with a complex geological history involving both volcanic activity and extensive glacial movement, which can create unique rock formations like the one in your image. Here are two likely explanations specific to that area: 1. Volcanic Concretions in Basaltic Rock: Sitka is part of the Alexander Archipelago, which has volcanic origins. The spherical formations embedded in the rock could be volcanic concretions or volcanic bombs from ancient eruptions. Over time, these volcanic rocks cooled and formed basalt or andesite, with the spherical formations embedded within. This is consistent with a rough basaltic matrix and smooth, rounded inclusions seen in your photo. 2. Glacial Concretions or Erratics: The Sitka area was heavily influenced by glacial activity, which can create rock formations known as glacial tillites. These are sedimentary rocks composed of materials deposited by glaciers. The rounded stones could be glacial erratics-rocks transported by glaciers and deposited in softer sediment. After deposition, sediment around these erratics compacted and lithified into rock, leaving the large, rounded granite-like stones embedded within a softer matrix, which could be mudstone or a similar sedimentary rock. Both scenarios are feasible given Sitka’s geologic environment. If the rock is relatively soft and easily eroded, it’s likely sedimentary, supporting the glacial tillite hypothesis. If it’s hard and rough, a volcanic origin with basaltic rock is more likely. Local geological surveys or guides in Sitka might also have specific information about similar formations in the region.

I would really like to live there! You are very lucky sir! Are their bears there? I’ve seen people crack them rock balls open with a hammer and chisel and there have been fossils inside. Make sure you wear eye protection if you try this and don’t do it alone. We get grey squirrels in our garden. Our indigenous red squirrels have almost been wiped out by the invading grey ones.

Where is that trail? And river lake area? I live here but have never been there.
