Woke up smelling the diesel heater fumes. Not the normal fumes but different. Something was not right. I got down to 45° inside Clifford last night. We have never done anything to this heater yet. So it’s probably time to service it. The heater wasn’t igniting. It was warming up just no ignited to blow …
Wasn’t terribly chilly last night. It was 45° inside Clifford. Gayla tuned on the heater when she got up. We had a soggy overnight with the rain so it was a little slow getting down from the trailhead. I pointed Clifford back the direction that we camp in from yesterday. Once we got back to …
Well I slept better than I thought I would at 9,500. I guess 10,000 is my limit for sleeping good. Woke up to 48° inside Clifford and had a few rain showers overnight. Gayla and I enjoyed breakfast and coffee and watched a few YouTube videos and educated ourselves on some new things. We left …
Woke up to pleasant temperatures. I had a buzzing sound in my ears. It was those midges. Billions of them. We packed up camp and made coffee and left early to go into Evanston, Wyoming. We needed some provisions for the week coming up so we restocked. Gayla and I went to the Bear River …
Woke up to a beautiful sunrise and 55°. Gayla had an early morning phone call with a client. The joys of being in different time zones. We had coffee and a bit of chocolate and we were off. Stopped by Luke Lynch Wildlife Management Area and did a quick POTA activation. It has never been …
Woke up to 36° with a windchill of 31°. Didn’t feel that cold. Maybe we’re getting acclimated to it! Gayla has a light work day. We had coffee and talked about what we wanted to accomplish today. I wanted to work on leather work but I had a podcast to edit for a client first. …
Beautiful night listening to the coyotes yapping. Woke up to 46° outside. It did not feel like 46°. It felt warmer. Gayla got a jumpstart on work today. I gathered around slowly and made my own coffee. Walking around camp this morning I jumped up 3 mule deer. Actually they stood there long enough for …
Woke up to a comfortable 59° inside Clifford. Also woke up late. Gayla had an early morning phone call with the east coast. Gayla made some coffee and we each enjoyed a doughnut. I worked on some leather work. Walked the dogs around the campground area a bit. I did activate a new park that …
Woke up to 59° inside Clifford. It did rain overnight a bit. We left camp about 7:30 AM and drove around Soda Lake to see all the camping opportunities. We found a few. Hopefully still available when we return later today. Made our way to the Museum of the Mountain Man in Pinedale, Wyoming. We’d …
Woke up to a warm 61° inside Clifford. We slept with the windows open and the ceiling fan open. Gayla made coffee and snuck some carmel sauce in there. We packed up and left camp by 7 AM. Made our way to Alpine, Wyoming and took the hwy 26/89 along the Snake River. That was …
