I had a long discussion with KW about access in the Crazy Mountains. He told me about a lot of things that were in the works that sounded interesting. However, when I looked into them they weren't actually happening. He has an active imagination.
Hers's a couple more pics from 2011.
Looking down the gulch from the ridge. Rugged to say the least. I was on some cliffs that would have blocked escape over the ridge.
River side of the ridge. The closest "eyebrow" rock outcropping is where Rumsey and Sallee waited after making the ridge...
Tejon Street Corner Thieves and their "Trash Grass" blew me away last summer opening for Dead South, but they are too intense for driving music :D.
Possessed by Paul James can also be rock'n.
The Crazies aren't a good place. If the pins are there, OnX is 100' or more off around there so don't use that. You could possibly use the lat/long, which is published, but realize you probably aren't going to find an obscured pin without stepping onto private land unless your device is...
Not necessarily, although it gives the agency leverage to negotiate reciprocal access. https://www.backcountryhunters.org/new_easement_to_northeast_side_of_crazy_mountains_should_open_this_fall
I asked AI itself. AI is perfectly safe as long as informed people develop it ethically and responsibly.
It got artificially dumb and not responsible when I asked the obvious follow-up question. :)
I read where misinformation will be used by bad parties, and since its "intelligence" will be greater than humans it will be very effective and detrimental. Two differing views on reality has already got this country divided up.
I read an interview where the military person referred to shooting down the balloon as a "kinetic solution." I love it, and it will be my preferred solution to the cervid problem.
Everyone spies on everyone else. China has much more sophisticated surveillance than this, but if we were to shoot it down, then they and Russia would have the go-ahead to shoot our stuff down.
