Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[screened porch]

Prices are really going up here, we've not had inflation like it since the early 70's. It might even be worse! I hope things aren't as bad there Nice TEW Bex Jer

Nice picture, Todd... Beautiful flowers.

That's a great pic Todd, I hope you can stay cool buddy

Thank you gentlemen, I appreciate the kind words. I’ll stay cool, I’m either going to be inside or in the lake!

 

[Angry Waiter]

Sorry to hear that. Wishing you a speedy recovery

Thank you Harvey.

My case wasn’t so bad. Hope yours is done quick!!

Thanks Joe.

Sorry to hear that Pete, hope for a speedy recovery.

Thank you Todd. I’ll be on BF a lot this next few days I reckon.

Rotten luck Pete Sorry to hear that I hope it's a mild dose, and that you're over it soon my friend

Jack, thank you. So far so good. Fever, chills but I am having no troubles other than that so far.

Sorry that you became ill. Hoping you have a speedy recovery. Very cool Lambsfoot knife.

Thank you Bill.

Just gorgeous Dwight

Thank you Jack. Young Nimrod Cillian is a fine looking lad. I love the dead serious look on his face. Nice to see young folk out in the woods.

Greetings, Guardians! I spent Thursday, Friday, and Saturday on a solo backpacking trip in Yosemite National Park

Spectacular scenery Greg. I've always enjoyed solo trips like that.

Evening, Guardians. Been a while since I threw down a whole chicken. Wish everyone a great start to the week. Cheers,View attachment 1843230

My oh my that looks good Greg!

Very humid here this morning and it’s going to be unseasonably hot for the next week or more.

Same here Todd.

90 degrees today and 100 for the next two.

Well dang Jer. If it's that hot up there where you and Todd are I guess I can't complain!

Angry Waiter Pete I hope you don't suffer too much. I had that a few months ago and it was no fun at all.

This thread moves at an alarming pace. I really cannot keep up with it. Have a great week Guardians.

 

[Angry Waiter]

91 degrees at 10 pm. Sigh.

This weather really takes the fun out of the outdoors. I walked the dogs Saturday around 11AM and they did not have their usual fun. They wanted to stop under every shade tree. I couldn’t blame them. It’s stifling right now

Thanks Dwight. I plan to take it easy the next few days.

Jack, thank you. So far so good. Fever, chills but I am having no troubles other than that so far.

I hope it doesn't get worse than that Pete, you take it easy buddy

Thank you Jack. Young Nimrod Cillian is a fine looking lad. I love the dead serious look on his face. Nice to see young folk out in the woods.

Yeah, he's a funny kid I took him out to see some deer last year, and he took it REAL seriously!

Hope you get some cooler weather soon

 

[sf fanatic]

Well Guardians. The world wide pestilence finally made a stop in my house. I’ll be isolating. Hope all have a good start to the week.

Greetings, Guardians! I spent Thursday, Friday, and Saturday on a solo backpacking trip in Yosemite National Park. My destination was Laurel Lake, which is accessed from a trail head in the Hetch Hetchy area of the park.

Here was the view of Hetch Hetchy Reservoir from atop the dam:

From there, you go through a tunnel cut in the rock and hike along the left side of the reservoir before taking a sharp left and beginning a long series of switchbacks.

Being Yosemite, there is a lot of granite. My lambsfoot couldn't resist taking a break on a boulder:

Eventually most of my elevation gain was behind me and I came across a bit of water.

The tip marks the spot:

Eventually I made it to Frog Creek and a knee-deep crossing:

And finally to Laurel Lake, my camp for two nights:

Since we like to talk about food, here's a selection of meals that I had, all home dehydrated:

Red beans and rice with some smoked meat sticks from Costco, steel-cut oats with pecans, "cowboy caviar" from a recipe in Adventure Journal, and mac&cheese with broccoli and ground beef.

It was a great trip and the lambsfoot was a trusty companion.

I hope everyone is having a great weekend and has a great week ahead!

Thank you for sharing your spectacular journey. A real vicarious treat.

Good morning Guardians, sorry to hear that another one of our brother Guardians has gone down with the bug Hope you're over it soon Pete I hope that everyone else had a great weekend, it certainly looks like it I had a good one myself, though not having any hot water has been a real pain in the backside. It got a little chilly here last night too. Hopefully, my boiler will be fixed today. That means waiting in, and it'll probably be a long wait, but I have things to do at home anyway. I might even do some work! Have a good week everyone, and enjoy carrying your Lambsfoot knives

Glad to hear that the boiler is mended. Now on to a good day.

Good Morning Guardians and Happy Monday

Another great image. Spot on.

When it gets over 100 degrees, I'll go check on the cat. If she's panting or just sleeping on the porch I'll drag her inside. At least she's smart enough to stay in the shade and lie on the concrete.

Congratulations JJ! It's great to see you here

Thank you very much, Jack!!! This is quite an enjoyable thread!
