here's a pic of the area

apparently this is how the cool kids leave there campsites

they where kind enough to leave a plastic bag behind at least, so I could cart it all out.
Stopped by the bombed out shelter up there.. but apparently Tonym beat me to it and left me this message

wanted to see how sensitive I could make a dead fall trigger with the bk7 the rock pictured is about 50lbs.. so it would theortically be good for a possum or a similar animal in the 10-12 lb range and the trigger was hair.. I'm impressed with how well one can perform semi-delicate tasks with a larger knife and a little bit of practice.. guess the tibal guys where on to something..

Had a little company on the trail and wanted to see how close I could get without spooking him.. fromt he looks of his eyes he was getting ready to shed, perhaps that;s why he was so willing to stay still for me.

Every outing is special in its own way. Any outside time is good outside time.

Looks like you had some fun with your Becker and its inspiring me to head out with my beckers and practice some skills.

I love hiking but I'm absolutely terrified of snakes. Wish there was some where, where snakes didn't exsitant. Lol I'll keep dreaming.
 
Good stuff RR, thats a fine kit. Do you ever use the lens? Works like a charm.

You might be a fun-gi, but apparently Tony is a hot blooded hetero-troph.
 
Even a quicky can be fun. Cool pics.
Wow, that was quite a message yougot there:eek::D.

I would love to be there and chat with those that left that fire pit like that. I hate to see that.
John it looks like a beauty of day to be out.

Good stuff :thumbup: I hate seeing all the trash and graffiti (even if that graffiti is kinda funny) I always end up carrying other peoples trash home from even remote trails :mad:
 
Getting out is always fun even for a hike.

RE: the trash
That is why we can't have nice things. It's the reason we can't disperse camp i state parks and metro parks becuase of jack offs like that who are to lazy to clean up after themselves.
 
Just so we get our facts straight. Handwriting analysis will show that I did not write that message. However, it did match tall Puerto Rican from Brooklyn that is similar in age to John's mom and can't spell Corrupt right.


Nice pics by the way John!

Ok, that is funny right there. :thumbup:

Thanks for sharing the pics bro. Glad to see you still enjoy the BK7!
 
Nice pics John, all outings are special in their own ways.

Always annoying to find people's trash left behind...like they just didn't have the strength to pack the empty containers and stuff back out...
