I run into the same horses or at least part of the herd often the pic was taken this Wed Today it is snowing no clear skies.Those trees look close enough to tow-strap to the road.
Did you have a trailer? (I saw one in some of your earlier pics)
Those horses look kinda small
Finally, did you eat that whole box of oranges all by yourself?
Ya they were close to two hundred yards away. Some times I will have one walk right up to me say 50 yds then the dog will have to take a look and they either get pissed off at the hound or take off running.Those trees look close enough to tow-strap to the road.

Lethbridge flat bald headed Prairy! Go a hour&half west check out Police lake or Waterton Park Much, nicer than Banff no People too.So you are after about 2,000,000 trees then? :jester: Just kidding! (to both of you)
That's some good looking country you have out your way. 'Probably heading to Lethbridge this summer and am looking forward to the trip.
Well the house prices are going down, and lots of them for sale now too lol.
A trip to the Southern Rocky's is well worth it! Just take Hi way 3 to the B.C Boarder visit Frank Slide (Canada's worst mine disaster)Lots of good stream fishing in that area too. And if you are driving out in that big 4x4 lot's of four wheeling places and you will find some Fir tree's that are as wide or wider than the hood of your truck. (Bob Creek area)My wife's folks are from Lethbridge so a stop there would be the whole point of the trip, but I will keep those locations in mind and take a run out that way.
Thanks for the tip!
It is for 5cu meters of wood ( sometimes it say's 3 on the permit?) I have only been checked once in 15 years of cutting, as here the gov is too cheap to enforce it and the guy's and gals in F&W and the Rangers really like the idea of cleaning up the blow downs and dead fall I was told when I was checked for a permit, the guy said you should bring in a big trailer I was like ya but that would be over the limit his response was your getting rid of fuel for fires.I know that as I worked as a fire fighter in my early 20s. Very few people heat with wood here so it is very lax as to the rules. I can actually say they use common sense! I got some good tips to this area from the Girl at the forestry building. I told her I had not taken that road in two years she was like go you can cut the stuff right on the side of the road,Not a real road I needed the tire chains.That's beautiful country! Thanks for posting the pics. Wood cutting permits are per month? How does that work, can you just purchase a month or two and get as much wood as you need? When I cut on USFS land it's $15/cord and you get tickets worth 1/4 cord each. Once you have loaded your truck you have to fill out the permit and then staple the tickets to a visible log on your load. Both the rangers and CHP will pull you over and check your permit.

Yes I guess that's why they named it that way lol. HI Southern Neighbor!I have stepped over the 5 strand fence many a time to say look Canada States.But up in the Rocks all you can find is a triangle cemented in the ground one side say's U.S the other CAN
+1 same here I burned some apple and cherry from a orchard in Dec real nice wood Now I have some kind odd bush to burn from a neighbor Don't now what it is 3'' in dia and heavy but it burns hot and longYup, it's one of my favorite types of wood to burn. We don't have hardwood here (enough for a good supply anyway), and I had never burned any... Until two days ago. It was a 3"-4" branch of a dead Hawthorne... WOW, I only got a few small rounds out of it, but they burned for a long time, and really threw out the heat!
Now I know what you hardwood guys are talking about... I'd love to get me more hardwood, and mix it with my conifer.
