A few more pics from up here, a few weeks ago in the Wind River Reservation and out near Jackson Hole



on the trail


off the trail (big horn sheep)




last man standing


over and out.......

What a view!! Nice finds.

Thats pretty country also in the second series of pics but looking at it from an ancients point of view, it also looks like some tough country to survive in year round ( different harsh season variables )
I think I would rather live near the river on Farmer Brown's cave property ( and he's so kind as to cultivate a crop for the wildlife )

i would too....almost got frostbite drivin through there with the heater blasting....ive heard of a number of bands that would stay out and winter in some of the harshest country up here, i dont know how they did it...Clinton D. Smith co- author of his autobiography "The Boy Captives" recalls waking high in the mountains wrapped in a buffalo robe with a couple feet of snow covering him up as a regular occurrence and him not the slightest bit disturbed...tough stock

"tough stock " is a good description of anyone that could survive a lifetime in that area...I'm thinking it was "easier" on the second generation...If you were born right there, you would assume thats a 'normal' way of growing up,,,the whole world is the same...

Just like some youngsters take it for granted that the whole world is covered in pink colored coral beaches with palm trees
