Field trips 2.0

So cool! I'm hoping for a look tonight. I saw them a few times in the NE. Remember one time we had a little family caravan pulled off the highway to watch, waving like curtains. Another time I saw red sky and thought the sun was coming up but it was like 2 am.

I saw the same last night from my back deck!  I had never seen the Northern Lights before, so was super stoked to see them!

There are apps available to show Aurora probabilities for your respective locations.

The Starlink network has been affected by the latest solar storm.

 

Has anyone checked the status of the Earth's core recently?

Tried to get up to my bone find spot but got turned around. Snow and dead fall.

 

Saw 3 deer and 1 bear today. The bear was really really blonde but small. Probably a cinnamon black.

 

Just tons of bear sign. But no tracks. Probably saw 10 piles of poo along the road. And during my hike.

 

The cows have been turned out onto open range. They sure make everything look like a park!

Did another long run around Priest lake today with a buddy. Got snowed on. And then from Coolin Id over mill creek to the Kalispel tribe.

 

Saw one bear, lots of deer and the tribe’s bison! Didn't take as many pics.

 

Oh! The pepper steak strips at Elkins resort in Nordman Id are to die for!

^ Beautiful pics, Norseman!  We didn't get snowed in today in Memphis, it was 96 deg.  lol! 

 

Me and Gracie (my blue Amstaff) saw Bison at our Shelby Farms Park here about 2 weeks ago.  They are fenced, but they looked pretty good.  (Shelby Farms is one of the largest urban parks in the world, it's 4500 acres).  :thumbsup:

That is really odd!  How tall was that tree stump and how big was that rock?  Skidder operator pulling a prank?

I finally got my late father's pop-up camper restored and lifted and took it for a quick camping trip next to a creek where I'd camped before.  The last time I camped there, a wolf pack came down the draw late at night and circled around the campsite, just out of the light of the fire.  My dog at the time was acting weird and wouldn't leave my side at the fire, and he was normally afraid of the fire.  I didn't realize a pack had come in until the next morning when I found their fresh scat and tracks all around.

This time, only old scat and tracks, and no visitors during the night.

The little draw was just beautiful and I loved to just stand there and enjoy the sights, smells, and sounds of nature.

Camper was fine, but I think I prefer my tent in my utility trailer.  The tent sets up faster than the camper, and I prefer cooking outside.  I only use the camper for sleeping.  I could see it being useful for a rainy trip, though.

No Bigfoot activity this trip, either.  It was a relaxing trip into the woods, though.

It was like 15 feet off the ground, I would guess it’s a tree saw operator with a sense of humor.
