How do they get the evac rope and chair over the cable in the first place? That wasn't a very tall (long?) evac, but obviously sometimes they are. What doesn't kill me does NOT make me stronger. It makes me anxious, bitchy, and vulnerable...but nobody wants to see that embroidered on a pillow...Lisa Kogan...thx LXL...sorry i stole it from you! Ok, maybe I'm not sorry :-P

R they use a p cord gun to shoot a pull line (P cord) to hall the rope then pull over a AFD on the cable to keep the rope clean an give it a smooth pull. It is a real safe way to do this job. Todd C A Smile Goes A Long Way To Making Somebodys Day Great

Also - watch your step. It is baby rattler season. Where there is one, there are probably 10-20 more. Saw a one-button baby - very pretty - that came from the north end of Mt. Doble/Gold Mountain.
Jerry B is having trouble logging in. He asked me to tell everyone: "A little heads up for the people out in the Shay Meadows area, a mountain lion was in a backyard of a house in the 1300 block on East Big Bear Blvd. close to Shay Rd fork on 5/17 Friday morning. The cat is 4 and ½ feet tall."
