Out
of shape from lockdown and new boots giving me blisters still
managed some quality locals after several mile hike in the heat.July 2
Took
to the mountains to fish the usual spot while trying to venture into
new unexplored territory. We took what we thought was a poorly
maintained trail only to find ourselves half way up in the scree chute
from hell. It was most likely a bighorn sheep trail. We soon realized this
was a death trap. Once we came to the obvious conclusion this was beyond stupid we gingerly
tried to make our way down (at least down without harm). We had to drag our asses on hill to make sure we didn't face plant off the mountain. Spent a lot of
times in the wilderness and I never felt like shitting my pants more
than I did today.Other than near death experience, the local fish were still excellent . Healthy and strong and willing to take a dry. Overall a good day on the water. I guess any day you don't die is a good day.
