When I was a kid I did some roped climbing in Yosemite, but this is just a slog up, and up and up. I might need to lose a few pounds.
I've hunted ruffed grouse in wet snowy thickets with downed timber and thorns and rocks and assorted nasties, and you fellows who live up there willingly do that and think its wonderful , so what's the problem with 8000 ft and climbing? Maybe we are all a little touched in the head?
And I've climbed and hiked 5 miles to 8,000 or 9,000 ft just to flog the waters with a bamboo stick in pursuit of 8 inch fish.....now that is really crazy.
Going after sage grouse again next month, skunked a couple times and out of range, but we know where they are on 5000 acres and I figure we can surround them. We just have to be wary of the grizzlies, wolves and don't let the dogs out at night because of big mountain lions.
