She's WISE beyond her years to take a selfie next to the bison! Don't underestimate how much a good bison selfie improves the likelihood of successfully reproducing! In fact humans have been evolving to take more videos while facing away from hazards ever since making a good TIKTOK became the expectation to be considered a viable mate. Benefits OUTWAY the risk!!!

The NAT GEO maps will frustrate one very much in the Sierra. Unless it's a word of mouth known primary/secondary it is just blatantly wrong.

When I travel abroad I wander aimlessly and often get lost. Isn't that the point?

Not all who wander are lost. (However, some are.)

Reminds me of a little girl who go lost about 20 years ago. We found her after she had spent two nights out. She holed up under a log to stay warm. She said she heard people calling for her but she was too hoarse to yell anymore. A whistle would have saved her a night out.

The latest lemmings Google apologizes after map led drivers down dirt path into the desert
Quote:
Even as the route got bumpier as it proceeded off-road — which their Toyota SUV wasn’t suited for — they trusted that the large number of cars accompanying them meant they were still on the right track, Easler said. “Nobody was turning around. So we figured that it led somewhere,” Easler said. The road only led farther into the desert. Even as Easler and her family eventually got nervous and thought to turn around, the long line of cars behind them on the narrow path hemmed them in.

Did we already talk about this? Was it at Boardman Lake (if so, it was over 20 years ago; time flies faster as you - (read: me) get older wink.gif
