Don't let this Jan 6th point get lost:

Jack Smith testified to Congress he had "proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election."

In other words, he could prove in court that Trump attempted a coup.

From the home screen folder.

Soda Butte Cone.

They fenced off the area behind it because it was getting trampled so badly but there's an active miniature sulfur seep back there, coming out from under the cone which is no longer active itself.

Maybe in 10,000 years we'll have another cone

Looks like I lost some following when I made those political posts. fact is if we're going to defend our parks and wildlife we're going to have to get political. Trump's illegal acts of war to amplify the use of big oil and filthy coal, are a primary source of habitat destruction.

It's never too late for
Another Moose
Monday

Moose are surprisingly gregarious. This group was frolicking on a frosty morning in the park. Even though they were all wearing antlers it was very friendly with just a lot of chasing and jumping around.

call your reps and give them a piece of your mind.
Congressional hotline

If you can't get through to your rep, look up the office map and call their neighbors and ask them to run a message on over to the those deadbeats.

This big bruiser is what some might call a good eater. He's about as fat and happy as they get.

Two thumbs up Tod for telling it like it is.
Venezuela became a problem the moment it stopped being convenient. Canada could be next.

Went for my first walk after surgery, about 2 miles, I'm beat but I feel good ;-).
I'll rest a day and do it again for a week, then start adding miles.

Gotta get ready for all those great hikes in the park ;-)

Gearing up for summer. About this time of year I generally inspect all the outdoor gear, and hit the after Christmas sales. Ours is the first chronic study of papillomavirus in moose in the wild and we're making solid discoveries.
