    Looking for pack-out services in western Montana

    Understand where you're coming from. The localities you mentioned span multiple forests, and generally outfitters are only permitted to operate on one forest, or even district. Outfitters also seem to not be very into drop camps or one way pick ups, it's not as profitable as having clients.

    New Mexico is going up in flames

    Likely bigger than 700 acres at this point. Maybe burning in recently twice burned, so perhaps keeping severity down a bit. Hope the fire history keeps it constrained some.

    New Mexico is going up in flames

    Unfortunately looks like another big day on the north end of the Calf/Hermits Peak Fire. I really hope you get a reprieve from the wind soon.

    New Mexico is going up in flames

    These maneuvers are done at low speed and only a few hundred feet off the ground, there is already little room for error on a calm day. Wind speed can be drastically higher just off the ground, so 200 feet AGL it is likely much higher than 60 mph. And then the retardant or water gets dispersed...

    Drought for the west

    I should have included it in the first post, but the Situation Report from NIFC. It is sort of a internal summary of what is going on across the country with respect to fires. There may be a bit of interpretation and reading between the lines, so can't take everything always at face value...

    Drought for the west

    As of yesterday's reporting (6pm ish), the Collins fire was 3030 acres and 80% contained, with a containment date of 4/11. Sounds like they think they have that one wrapped up.

    You Can't Fix Stupid - $87,000,000 California Lion "Crossing"

    Little late to the party here, but there were some questions regarding the claim that these sub-populations could go extinct within 50 years. I believe this claim is from a 2019 paper titled "Extinction vortex dynamics of top predators isolated by urbanization" and published in Ecological...

    Forest Service Issues ‘E-Bike’ Guidance

    My takeaways are that e-bikes are motor vehicles, trails open to motorcycles are of course open to e-bikes, local authorities can expand e-bike usage. Emphasis mine: "The directives add a definition of e-bikes as a class of motor vehicle and establishes criteria for consideration in designating...

    Forest Service Issues ‘E-Bike’ Guidance

    I know e-bikes have been a contentious issue in the past, but the Forest Service finally issued their guidance. "The Forest Service currently allows e-bikes on all Forest Service roads that are already open to motorized vehicles, as well on 60,000 miles of motorized trails, which represent 38%...

    Alpine Happiness

    One of my absolute favorite spots I've ever had the pleasure of spending the night. I was lucky enough to share tent with my wife and pup. I do regret not having a better phone sometimes.
