The absolute tried and trued gear that a middle-ag The absolute tried and trued gear that a middle-aged guy uses …. It seems like my feed comes up with the-latest-cool-article-to-sell-you-crap from the BigOutdoorCongelemorate. You know the type of article: Something about what an extreme Crossfit Yoga HeliSkier guide uses for their intriguing sounding job. Usually with links for expensive gear modeled by photogenic people doing things I am not nearly cool enough to do and then rhapsodizing about in a way that sounds like a cross between a Zen monk and the latest Banff Film Festival entry. This is not one of those articles … :🚁 Read more of my usual subtle thoughts via link in profile. :🎿 ….

This past year she started using the well-known and popular @kulacloth favored by many backpackers. ...

After our time in the San Juans, we went to the ed After our time in the San Juans, we went to the edge of the Colorado Plateau to Chimney Rock National Monument. This Ancestral Pueblo settlement perches on a prominent overlook with rock formations that line up with an 18.5-year lunar cycle. … Located at the edge of the mountains and the Colorado Plateau, this area also served to trade with various goods found onsite. Most prominently, Chimney Rock is in direct alignment with Chaco Canyon ninety miles away, with possible signal fires getting seen across the distance between these two points. The Pueblo founded other settlements in the area. … I last went there just after Chimney Rock became a national monument but glad to return as there’s always more to see, and it is a place where Joan’s never visited. We both enjoyed seeing Chimney Rock while in the area. .. #colorado #sanjuans #sanjuansmountains #ChimneyRock #ChimneyRockNationalMonument #archeoastronomy #ColoradoPlateau #AncestralPueblo
@ramblinghemlock and I went to the Weminuche Wilde @ramblinghemlock and I went to the Weminuche Wilderness in the San Juan Mountains.  Though still summer in our desert home, autumn’s arrived in the alpine terrain. The ground cover’s russet, you can hear the elks bugle, and there’s a nip to the night air. … With no 14ers or prominent alpine lakes, we had this stretch mainly to ourselves. Just how we like it! ... #colorado #sanjuans #sanjuansmountains #continentaldividetrail #Weminuche #hiking #backpacking #camping

@ramblinghemlock and I started a volunteer role as @ramblinghemlock and I started a volunteer role as a Utah cultural site stewards ( @ut_shpo ) at @fremontindianstateparkmuseum. What does this mean? Joan and I perform monitoring, make notes about site conditions, outreach, and give information about the sites we assist in overlooking. … The state park is just off I70, has camping, and makes an excellent stopover point on your way to and from other areas in Utah. The park itself is along a vital travel corridor both now and in the past. Additionally, the park had a significant settlement of the Fremont people ~700 years ago and later formed an important place for the Paiute, Shoshone, and Ute. In the 19th century, traders and settlers came through. … Pictured here is the well-known and easily accessed “Cave of 100 Hands” that features petroglyphs and pictographs created by the Fremont. And one of the sites we’ll monitor. .. #utah #fremont #fremontindianpark #petrogylphs #pictographs
