Earning Our Keep

Hi All,

Things got a lot busier this week and coupled with temps in the high 80's, it was work. Monday we had a four hour "Moose Jam", standing in the sun, keeping people from getting too close to the moose(Sandy) and keeping the traffic moving on the narrow, twisting road(Carl).

Tuesday we worked four different moose jams ranging from 15 minutes to over an hour each, also in the heat.

Both days, after a shower we both forgot about the heat and clueless visitors and appreciated the moose and scenery.

Today was our Back Country Day when we hike trails to learn about them and to promote bear awareness with the visitors we encounter. We hiked along the east side of Leigh Lake to Bearpaw Lake and back, 7.5 miles total. We met  and chatted with numerous folks including a Dutch couple who live near where Carl travelled when working on a NATO program in the 80's.

Here's Sandy shooting Mt Moran. Her new CamelBack was a big success.
