    No I didn't, I asked the dude I came up with, he heard it too but didn't get out to see what it was. It could have been anything really, black bear are increasing in number up here, mexican wolves are returning, however they're pretty sketchy and keep their distance. We heard two large elk calling the next morning near camp so? Sure did raise my heart rate for a bit though.

    That's kinda what I guessed. Good, now I don't have to give you that "MOM" talkin' to.

    Thanks again for pictures and report!

    Great report.

    Fine report eugeneius...... yeah, those plane crash pix were spooky!
    I am glad you had success in your hammock and you were smart to take members advice to heart. Makes the first hang a do-able thing.....
    Tarps are not too difficult to make yourself.... just practice the flat-felled seam first!
    Trip on and walk light and hang happy,

    Really nice and well written report. Thanks.
    I also have some Great Sand dunes ( in winter) and Sangre de Christos memories, from so long ago ( 1976). But I do fly right over there from time to time on trips out west.
