PNWexplorer Posted September 8 Posted September 8 I also did a one day 185-mileJeep trip through some very remote Idaho backcountry. No BF sign, but some beautiful country... 1 1
BC witness Posted September 9 Author Posted September 9 I've been remiss in not reporting my field trips for the last couple of months, so I'll try to get back into it. I've made a number of outings, but had some problems with making my phone upload photos to the computer and got frustrated with trying to make it work. This evening i made a run up one of our local research areas that had been gated for active logging for almost a year, and took Thomas along for the ride. I'd heard that the gate was now open, since the logging had ended for the season, and we found the gate was indeed open. However, the contractor had obviously just completed cutting drainage cross ditches on the road, and did it very thoroughly! The new trenches were aggressively steep and very frequent, slowing progress to a crawl to avoid suspension damage or noggin bonking on the roof! We only got about 2/3 of the way to the summit before we decided that the effort to reach the top wasn't worth it. Here's a video that Thomas shot on the trip back down: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1WbkQxebhb/ 2
wiiawiwb Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Great videos PNWexplorer and BC witness. The views are magnificant and the approaches to the area amazing. It underscores how fortunate you both are to be sasquatching in the wilderness areas you go. Kindly keep up the great work you're doing. 1

We've been chatting recently on Sasquatch BC (I'm Sawone over there), so it's nice to see you over here, too. Very belated hello, I don't frequent these forums very much anymore lol. I don't have anything new to report as I've been hanging out in north eastern BC these days and there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity up there. cheers!

BC witness Posted 1 hour ago Author Posted 1 hour ago I got out for a solo run on Sunday afternoon to the Bear Creek watershed on the east side of Harrison Lake. The weather was mild and broken clouds, until I reached the summit of the east ridge of the valley, when the wind picked up and brought in cold showers. Of course, I didn't take any pictures on the way up, so all I captured was cloudy views of the lake, 4600' below. The only signs of wildlife were some deer tracks, bear scat, a few squirrels, and 1 skunk, but it was refreshing to get out in the mountains after a few weeks in town. 1
