Would also be interesting to explore abandoned open pit mines, etc. where foot travel might be difficult or dangerous. Drones open up a whole world of possibilities, it seems.

Get a big drone with some lifting capacity and a hook. Have you thought of attaching an Apple Air Tag to that drone? If you lost track of it in that wide open country, that might be the only way to locate it.

Might I suggest Smoke on the Water, Freebird, Bohemian Rhapsody or Moby Dick ? If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Plenty of places to download free music without copyright issues, pretty sure Tikka will get it figured out. “Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.” ― G.

Haven't had time to get mine off the ground yet... My .25-06 shoots 1/4" all day long and I don't even have to do my part...
