Friends of mine lost their dogs while camping on the north side of Escudilla in unit 1. They are camped on the 275 road at Mud Springs. Dogs bolted from camp 9:00 am today, Sunday the 13th. Camp is still being manned by friends and the owners are currently searching for the dogs as I type this. No luck yet. Ruby is a 5+ year old golden retriever and Laney is a 13 month old Aussie doodle. Dogs have collars with owners phone number. Contact me with any info

I appreciate a cranky RSO, too many idiots at public ranges. If an butt chewing is earned, take it don't whine.

Good point. No need for this thread to go any further.

E2 or F2

Looks like a near perfect mushroom to me. 30-30 has successfully taken large game for a 100 years.

In the 60's, Circle K's on the outskirts of town would have cases of shotshells stacked chest high in the aisles prior to dove season. Dove season was an EVENT in those days.

8 X 42 is a great choice for hand held glass. 10 X 42 is better for all around glass. Each are surprisingly effective when used with a tripod.

Lots of tears shed.

Lucky to be alive. Many perils for domestic pets in the wild. Did not think they'd last a single night much less four nights. A lot of people put in time trying to find these pets, in the end they self rescued.

Dogs found! I have no details but pups showed up in Alpine. Owners ecstatic and on their way to reunite.

Dogs still missing, hope is waning.

Camp that the dogs bolted from remains and is occupied by others.

Owners had drone pilots fly the area yesterday. Not looking good.

Taste tested skip jack against yellowfin. Preferred skip jack.

No luck finding Ruby & Laney today.

Got a lot of people looking for the dogs, no luck yet.

Found a site that monitors smaller fires including satellite "indications." https://maps.nwcg.gov/sa/#/%3F/%3F/34.3208/-111.8505/7 Inciweb is good but generally does not list smaller fires. Anybody know of better site(s) for wildfire info? Please share if you do.

"free grazers" causing the rest of us pain.

I recommend strapping on a banana hammock and helping the new neighbors set up camp.

Whether on purpose or accident, this was likely a "fed" bear. I'd wager that locals had seen this bear prior to the incident. Condolences to friends & family.

Spoke to this woman a few times. She was competent and most of all, had empathy for us.

I believe many on this site will know where these collapsed limestone domes are. Quite a few in the area.

IMO, no but go ahead and post the grip & grin.
