I went with a Sono’s system. Love it. Control the system with your phone or computer. Place speakers anywhere there is a 110 outlet with no other wires. I have the ARC sound bar, a sub and a couple of ones I think they are called.

He has not mentioned prairie dogs, coyotes or fox but I will have my AR with me just in case. I will also have 3 side by side shotguns and an old Winchester Model 59 due to its light weight. I should be set for what might pop up to shoot.

If you ever feel like you may be under armed, my 22-250 and about 500 hand loads are ready. That is some great country and I am excited for you.

Ask your new friends if they need any help with prairie dogs.

You are lucky to live close to Glacier. I envy you.
I grew up in Southern Alberta and for a while was a warden in Waterton Lakes Park. We used to ride horses into the Belly River lakes to fish for lake trout. We had many a close encounter with grizzly and black bears. The scenery is indescribable in the interior of Glacier National Park.
I feel a strong need to make a trip back to the scenic pull out where you can stare at Old Chief mountain once more. Old chief was such a landmark as I was growing up. If you happen by someday, be sure to take a picture for me.

Thank you for posting this.
Old Chief Mountain holds a special place in my heart. I grew up in the Cardston, Mountain View area. This is just across the border in Southern Alberta. As teenagers we spent many a summer weekend riding our horses up the Belly River past Old Chief to do some fishing. What spectacular scenery I was able to witness growing up.
Don't get me started on grizzly bear encounters. It sometimes was pretty exciting.

I looks to me like a mechanism to raise and lower a blade for grading etc.

Here is a 34 Ford hot rod I built back in the 70's. Instead of the typical Chevy small block, I installed a 426 Hemi out of a 69 Plymouth Roadrunner. I think it was the last year of the solid lifter Hemi's. It had a 513 rear end. I was a pipe welder by trade, so I was able to build the headers and exhaust system myself. It was loud, fast and a lot of fun.
I wish I still had the motor today.

All are beautiful. Number 2 is the best capture of a Great Blue Heron that I believe I have seen. I lived on a yacht in the Blaine WA marina for 10 years. The Herons roamed the docks in the evenings looking for the fish that were attracted to the lights. If you came home in the dark you had better be prepared. They would remain motionless until you were near. They would leap into the air with the most unnerving racket. They must still have some prehistoric dinosaur blood in their veins by the sounds they made.
Thanks for sharing.

That is a Red Fox, not a coyote. Coyotes are larger and gray. The animal the eagles are eating is red.


Good morning.
I hope I can clear up the red fox versus the coyote. I have been hunting coyotes since I was a teenager in Alberta. Now 78 years old. I hunted for many years in Utah and Nevada. We would hunt with lights all night long when they were most active. The government paid a bounty and the pelts were worth some real money then. I now live in WA state where we are overrun with coyotes. Here are some close up pictures from the last month or so. It is one of these coyotes that I drug across the fence so that I could get better pictures without a bunch of trees and willows in the way. I think the misconception simply arose because of blood on the carcass
Thank you everyone for looking and commenting.

I doubt an eagle or even this pair would have gone after a full-grown coyote, they are on the order of 2x or more the size of this Red Fox. Good shots, not "pretty" but illustrative of the predator prey relationship and how unless you are the peak of the pyramid there is always a predator above you on the "mean and dangerous" scale.


Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that the eagles took down the coyote. It was dead when they found it. I have not seen or heard of a fox in this area.

I took these pictures with my Panasonic G9 and 100-400 mm Panasonic lens from my deck. I set the camera on a tripod and use a cellphone app to operate the camera through my window.

As mentioned, Logan Canyon to the summit and down to the Bear Lake view point. Beautiful. In Logan stop at Gossners Cheese on 1000 West for some fresh curds. Just west of Corrinne there is a rocket display. It is where the space shuttle rockets among many others were and are built. Can't remember the company name. It used to be Thiokle. There will still be snow in the canyons.
