Many new fisherman make that fateful trip to the sports store to set up their initial outfit. They’ve had that old dusty rod and reel in the garage for years and have decided that it’s time to make good use of it. And there they stand…. So many options…. Who has the answers? It has only been about two years since I decided it was time to teach myself how to fish.
In the northwest part of Wyoming, near the Continental Divide, the area around Brooks Lake offers expansive views of the Wind River and Absaroka Ranges, decent camping near good fishing, and both high peaks and quiet woods for hiking and exploring.
San Diego was once known as the Tuna Capital of the World and although it still has some of the best deep-sea angling around, fresh-water fishing has become quite popular. There are many wonderful lakes scattered throughout San Diego County from small, neighborhood fishing holes to remote mountain lakes offering up monster trout and largemouth bass. Here are just a few of the best places to fish in San Diego.
I would really love an endless summer. I like winter sports and all but there is just way too much to do in the summer and there never seems to be enough time. One of the summer activities my boyfriend and I wanted to do more of this year is hiking, so we picked a few hikes from the hiking guide book “60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Salt Lake City.” Today’s adventure took us to a local favorite called Adam’s Canyon in Ogden, UT. Usually the extent of our hiking is just whatever is required to get to the climbing spot we’re headed to for that day, (which should really happen more often as well) so we are not avid hikers by any means.
As a beginning runner I have learned a few new tips that might help on your training and enjoying your runs more. First let me tell you a little about me. I started running to help my health, mostly because both my grandpa’s have had heart attacks and a few years ago my dad had one. I was on the same track and not that track you run on. I had been gaining weight and being active less. About two years ago I thought that I better start doing something more than just the occasional bike ride here or there, and I wanted my kids to grow up staying active with their parents.
Nature lovers cringe at the idea of a wildfire. Others walk by in a single moment of astonishment and then forget that it ever happened. The lightning bolt who is responsible for thousands of acres of land being scorched is long gone. What remains of it all is wasteland. On November 21st, 2007 the Ojo fire broke loose in the Manzano Mountains, Southwest of Albuquerque, NM at 3:00 am. By midday Ojo had eaten through over 3000 acres of beautiful forest, forcing tens of thousands of wildlife inhabitants and no less than 100 families to flee the area. Within days it had engulfed 7000 acres of once luscious forest, including homes, farms, and ranches which forced locals to move their livestock to holding areas away from danger. Families were dropped from wealthy homeowners to poor shelter inhabitants in a single day.
