Hike 3:50:00 [2] 6.5 mi (35:23 / mi) +1000ft 30:53 / mi
Red neck hiking. Went bushwacking with Kris' best friend from back in the day. Kris warned me that his friend and wife were red neck, but damn were they red neck! Interesting folks, and "fun" to hang out, but imagine this:
- They wore all camo/hunting gear.
- Dana carried a gun strapped to his thigh just in case he needed to shoot a wolf / coyote. He's shot several in the past. We saw the furs.
- They drank no less than 3 PBRs, while hiking, each.
- We never hit a trail, and bushwacked to find old whiskey bottles, antlers and old Micah mining sites.
Dana is kind of a crazy genius that doesn't like working normal job. He spends his time building cars, radios and his own crazy giant house. His wife works for the forest service, and can throw down beers better than Kris. They have two boys but they seem to stay with their grandparents a lot, which this is the topper, the grandpa is Dana's dad, and grandma is Dana's wife's mom. They married their stepbrother/sister. yep.
