Thanks. I'll be good to go for next time.
Even tough it was too hot to look at everything I wanted to this time, and proved to be even riskier than I expected out there, it was worth the effort.
The reality of what waits in those mountains can never be experienced by sitting in front of a computer...

those mountains are dangerous...
no matter how close the city comes to the base of the mountains.

Don - my personal opinion is that's one of (if not THE MOST) significant reason why they are so dangerous. It's so easily accessible, and yet can be so inhospitable.

howdy...
a good point...as the city moves closer, people imagine that the mountain becomes less dangerous...big mistake in my opinion.

I see the city as a place of multiple dangers too. The mountains? Like all mountains, an ignorant or unprepared person can easily put himself at risk. Superstitions or Himalayas - same-same. Same goes for someone who wants to swim Hawaii's north shores in the winter. Life on earth can be risky business anywhere.

I went back in, trying to post some pics.https://picasaweb.google.com/111105718031384169372/RecentlyUpdated?authkey=Gv1sRgCLbcmv229MfWOQ#

Chuck,

Just curious........did you find one or two sets of horse tracks in "White Hat's" camp?

Take care,

Joe

I would be careful about using the Horse/Priest Stone as a reference. It is very possible Travis Tumlinson made that himself. I won't try to make anyone doubt their opinions about the Stone Maps, because nobody I know of has found THAT pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, so almost everybodys' opinions are as valid as almost everybody elses.

Good Luck - Mike

I don't remember seeing any tracks at the white hat area, it stormed the night before I got there. But I do remember seeing some tracks on the trail the first day, I`d say just one, but I wasn`t counting.

Hows that Raptor holding up? Badass truck

 

[393stroker]

The Ford Raptor is truly a special truck, I`m glad I decided to get it.

I love that truck, if by chance you walk out of work one day and you find me humping the tailgate, it was an accident.
