Also, on RCT work, we stayed mostly in “tent- cabins,” with framed floors, 4’ plywood walls, and tent above. On occasion, in the FS cabins, but rarely. We spent more than one night under emergency vis-queen, when our scheduled cabin stay was rented out.
One such night, Flopsy Fatstone ( a half Great Dane/ mutt) saw a “ghost” as I came up the trail to our emergency camp on Fox Creek with viisqueen over my head. Didn’t come to new camp for a couple hours!
Communication and “ checking the book” is wonderful, no?
Anyway, them porkys loved to chew on cabins and tent- framing. And would not cease and desist, no matter how many times you ran them off between midnight and light. Hard physical labor needs sleep!
A pre- 64 M70 in 375 was the answer! Makes a helluva quill shower from up in the tree!
One should not post in the cabin log that one has killed 20 something porkies in the last 8 days tho.
Eco- Karen’s get upset. My bad, but I was young then
