Re: [VFB] Trip Report

Hi Dean, they don't show the misery. Snowed on, rain on, ice in the guides and the wind blowing so hard we could hardly stand up against it. Never mind the frost making the rocks fall off the cliffs at river side or the snow slides rumbling from down the valley and us suffering sore necks trying to see where it was happening. Those were the good days! :O) Well we did suffer with four days of very inclement weather but then the sun came out for rest of the week. I've heard it said that when you've heard a timber wolf howl in the wild that you've heard what it is to be wild or the "call of the wild." After this trip I will add the call of the Bittern. We spent an entire day listening to them fill a narrow valley with their echoing calling. As haunting as a wolfs song but hypnotic from the constant thrumming of its trance inducing qualities. A beautiful place, where ya know "the air hasn't been breathed before."
