The sheep experiment station is south of the CDT between Spencer and Dubois Idaho. They have developed crossbreeds to live in the mountain climates and one breed is called Dubois, there may be others. The herds you have passed are likely summer grazing, which are allowed up in the forest service land with grazing permits. The cows too, as a long standing program the Forest Service and other agencies run. Hike safe!

I'm slightly allergic to wasps, as well. Here's something my Doc. told me. Use regular meat tenderizer. When you get stung, quickly wet sting spot, with your saliva and apply meat tenderizer. It contains enzymes that break down proteins, which primarily make up wasp venom. It really works, but you need to do it quickly. That's the reason I said saliva, instead of water, saliva is usually close by. It will lessen the severity of the sting greatly. It helps to neutralize the venom, before it spreads. I've used it several times. I keep a small bottle in my truck. Won't add much weight, very lightweight.

Thank you Beer-run and Savage for hookin' these hikers up! 👏 You could see the haze in the air for sure. Good call taking Benadryl for the sting. A cold soak/compress may also help. 🙏 Your hike is better than the Olympics! 😀 Rest well 🌲🏕🌲

@scmb7665 Ай бұрын

I'm glad you stop in towns periodically. Aside from it being necessary to restock supplies and all that, it's such a cool part of the journey across the country. It'd almost be a shame to stay purely on trail the entire time without exploring the interesting sites along the way!

Love that you got those guardian, Great Pyrenees at work. Amazing dogs. They look like big teddy bears but they’ll take a wolf on without hesitation. So cool, but with every wonderful vid you post the scenery steals the show. The Lord bless and keep you guys.

Awesome stop with Beer Run & Savage - that was so great of them to do, and glad you took the time to chill with them for an overnight. I don't think I've even seen Great Pyrenees react like that to people, even when used as livestock guard dogs - they must have very limited interactions with people in general.

Kelly, glad to see your doing well and still having fun with your pack (trail family). I look forward to Yellow Stone. Screw to haters who judge your trail time. It’s your trip, plus we all enjoy your videos showing the different places you’re visiting. It would be a pretty boring video if all you did was film hiking alone. I will never in this lifetime see the Midwest myself and I’m pleasantly surprised at how cool it is compared to how I pictured it from western cowboy movies!😂 Experimental Sheep? It would be cool to figure out what that’s about. I lived in New Zealand for 10 years and there were sheep everywhere you looked in the countryside! Avoid the sheep 💩. It is disgusting and very messy if you don’t! 😂 Look forward to more videos. Thanks for the hard work!😊

@timwolfers7880 Ай бұрын

The USA has an experimental sheep station in Idaho. From what I recall, they try to develop breeds which can live in different climates, and survive on different foods. It's located just south of the CDT near Dubois Idaho. The Dubois variety of sheep was developed there I believe. The sheep the hikers passed were most likely summer grazing herds, that ranchers pay to graze on federal lands.

Not sure if I would be brave enough to walk so close to those dogs! I remember that the guidebooks for GR10/GR11/HRP in the Pyrenees mention that you shouldn't worry about wild animals, there are very few bears and wolves, but the one animal you should really watch out for is the Patou aka Pyrenean Mountain Dog, and they recommend to keep well away from the sheep.
