My wife's Uncle Dick, now deceased, was a Forest Service ranger at San Jacinto 1917 to 1919. He had some wild stories. Dynamite was on the standard equipment list when you loaded the pack horses for a month long backcountry patrol.rlown wrote:Sorry for the dynamite diversion, but i'd kinda like to know if my ranger friends out there carry dynamite.
Homeranch:gdurkee, you are a back country ranger in Yosemite?
When we were kids we went to Tenaya Lake every summer for two weeks. my dad would take off to Sunrise Lakes to fish and leave us really little kids to play at the lake and meadow. Ruined me for any sort of real job.
We had a ranger come and give great campfire talks, we would sing songs like "Little Chief Tenaya sat on a Fiya (fire)
Years later I learned that was Carl Sharsmith (did I spell it right)
By chance do you know Olaf Carmel former ranger, or Victoria Brown, former ranger, now at the Inyo in Bridgport (now being sometime in the last 5 years)
I wonder if that was Debbi Waldear? She had llamas for years.the Tahoe Rim trail crew volunteer used two of her Llamas to help with trail work...she had them carry supplies to a base camp....they were all so beautiful, I really enjoyed seeing them out there
