Earthling,
Heck no I'm not offended <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />by [deleted] well never mind, ahem, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> anyway we all live in different times and places and its just interesting to me when something gets one group or another all riled up. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> I think theres something in the water here, nobody cares about much but the snow condition on the mountain. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
However - quite frankly where I live the native forests are so tight the trees are stunted and they need a good fire <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />but its been so long that the damage done would be devastating <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> so instead they combine legal firewood cutting with mechanised "cleanig" to cut down 3/4 of the saplings <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />. This is the land of a billion pine trees and if I wanted to I could go 5-10 miles from here and practice all of the woodsmanship crafts I wanted to including building a lean to <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />. People wold call it a hunter camp.

That's the difference 3000miles makes Jim. Out here on the East coast most law abiding wilderness folks would tar and feather anyone caught doing that in a public use area.
I can see where you are out West in areas that have/are being logged it's not such a big deal to go out to play any way you want. Guess you have it better than us <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
As far as yellow snow goes, it melts in the Spring and you don't notice it in the water huh? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Must be an aquired taste or something <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
A share of dogs have owned me in the past 4 to be exact, and they were all great friends. These days i just rescue the less fortunate ones and foster them until the right person comes along to adopt them.
Last good fire we had here was when a Navy fighter jet 'accidently' dropped a flare into Wharton State Forest and burned 20,000 acres and a half dozen homes <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
