The wife and I took a short hike up to a familiar ridge for some fatwood. The place burned in 2000, and there is a lot of dead timber.
Here are a few pics,
Some wildlife along the way,
Scenery,
Wind shelter (it was breezy 15-30 mph) and some hot Ramen noodles and PBJ,
This'll do,
Cleaning it off a bit with the Gerber Back Paxe, great little tool.
Heading down the hill with the loot,
Geese heading north,
Here's the best of it I distilled down to handy pieces for the fire kit. I'll keep a piece or two in my pack. All the lesser pieces went into the fire pail, where I keep tinder, matches, kindling etc for the house woodstove..
