North Fork by the numbers:

Well, snowy-rainy-slush continues to clog all but the lowest valley bottoms, and the north fork has mostly been high fast and murky. As a result hiking has been hard to come by and I have yet to even attempt to fish. With that said, boredom has not been an issue. Here are the numbers from my time thus far on the North Fork.

Children educated- 80 (debatable)
Showers taken-3
Bobcats seen- 1
Lynx seen-1
Hours a day I have access to electricity-1
Ranch dirt bikes ridden-2
Bar fights parteaken in- 1/2
Squirrels shot-4
Squirrel hides skinned and tanned- 3
Hills longboarded-2
Hippies encountered- 25
Crazed militant backwoods rednecks encountered- 50
Cars stuck in snow- 3
Ghosts seen-1
Bow staffs whittled- 4
Ticks discovered on myself-11
Windows broken-1
Dollars won in poker-19
Laundry loads finished-0
Near death chossy free solos-2

...Yep. Here be some photos.
