    The 1 Thing You Learned- MULE DEER

    Here’s one I’ve learned the hard way many times - however you hike into an area, hike that way back out in the dark. Don’t look on your OnX and think ‘well this way out must be faster’.

    Covid defense/prevent....strengthening your immune system.

    Daily Pack Up
