The house was gently swaying for about a minute at around 1550 today. Just Checked the USGS eathquake site. 5.9 magnitude in the Mono Lake area just east of Yosemite. Got to wonder if it triggered any big rock falls in the park or knocked any climbers loose on any of the routes. Hope no one was soloing unroped
amazing that we felt it here over 200 miles away
Earthquakes are pretty fascinating. Propagation prediction is really tough when we know so little about the detail structure of the ground. We have to infer 99% of it still and we still find faults popping up as if from nowhere fairly regularly.
I hadn't heard about food in the tent during the initial reporting, just the chicken coop raid the day prior.I've ridden through the town they were in. I did not camp with food in my tent. I did sleep in a pit toilet once though to avoid tent camping in griz country...
US woman killed by bear that dragged her from tent in Montana
Wildlife officials are searching for the bear and say they plan to kill it as it remains a threat.www.bbc.com
Sucks... Rethinking my tendency to enjoy beerz inside my tent when camping => Me.
ETA: Ovando is as close to the "edge of Glacier National Park" as I am to the "edge of elite fitness" or 100 miles away...

Wow, a few thousand showed of for a free concert in Victor...(Young Dubliners)
When I camp in Grizzly country I make sure eat far away from camp as well as store food. Even go so far as to always eat in the same clothes and hang that with the food.
When I was in GNP, a woman had gotten killed by a grizzly in the same site we were staying at. You could see fresh prints and smell them, hear them walking through the brush but they stayed just far enough away that we never saw them.
Anyway that woman had done something similar, kept apple butter scented lotion in here tent and a grizz visited in the day. Came back at night and once again snacked on the contents of the tent.
You paint an image that the tent was just the wrapper of the snack within.
Went and hit some balls at the range. Really smashing my hybrid today, which was nice, and absolutely smashed the last ball of the day to leave on a high note. Yay. Been having some issues with my bendy driver since I played a few rounds with a friend’s stiffer one but seem to have sorted that out mostly. Still want a stiffer driver.
The photo isn’t HDR’d, the grass is just really super emerald green right now; lots of rain and sun. If you walk on the field though you’ll have muddy feet.
