Some of the area is pretty open with mostly Oregon White Ash, and pretty dry for this time of the year.

Glamour shot with friends and a downed Black Cottonwood.

My modified first gen Spyderco Manix is probably my most common pocket carry, but since when I wear waders I can't reach it, I carry the Fallkniven WM1 tucked into my chest pack (man-bra).

My old modified first gen Leatherman Wave usually lives in this old Buck sheath on my lumbar pack (man-purse).

I usually have some kind of larger blade on the pack or bag for clearing trails or roads of downed wood or brush.
I often tuck a Silky Pocket Boy in the bag, but left it in the truck today.
Not bad for 30seconds of cutting, although it is cottonwood...

Interesting shape the rodents chewed this elk rib-bone into.

Another rodent chewed bone, probably a back-tailed tibia
