Went for a drive, thinking I'd head up Little North Fork a good ways, except the way was blocked at so-so, sooooo I drove and thunk on until I hit the town limits of Mill City, pop. 1570, elev 850' and remembered the bridges. With a little bit of luck I might see some trout and salmon taking the little falls there. Instead, lots of recreators.
Amongst these were two fourteen year old daredevils.
The camera makes it look a lot farther to the water than it is, I guessed about forty-five feet from the guard rail to the water. They each jumped three times, quitting just about the time the sheriff's deputy caught wind, the boys having a sense about such things. They then moved to rocks about twenty-five feet above the water. Although the deputy and I are acquainted, I did not snitch.
Other youths were less ambitious, yet all liked having their picture taken.

I only a little bit why, but that post just makes me feel good.
sorry, "know why."
Glad you had your camera with you.
Isn't summer wonderful everywhere but Vegas?
"The Path" is brilliant. Actually, there's a bit of a Lost reference in that picture.
It was nice to take a couple hours to stand in one place and just watch. Thanks, folks.
wow, the smaller cliff... no prob, but the bridge with a pipe to jump over? Not sure I would have done that one. I guess it depends on how cute the girl watching was... ahhh youth.
