Gila National Forest has just declared stage 1 fire restrictions for the entire forest. Effective March 23. In many past years much of the forest would still be inaccessible due to snow at this time of year.

I'm afraid it's going to be a very bad year.

I was exploring down a dry gully and found four elk standing in the middle of a cattle tank. I froze for a minute while the elk watched me. As soon as I moved to pull out my phone they bolted, but I did my best to quickly zoom in and get a picture (I was more than 100 meters away). I then retreated the way I had come; I hope they felt safe enough to return to the water.

This is one of my favorite old puzzles. When this was demonstrated to me 40+ years ago, the milk was not stirred in before scooping back. It was only a partial stir that did not completely mix the milk into the coffee, so it was impossible to know what proportions of milk and coffee were in the return scoop.

Walking Bertie yesterday afternoon, he was sitting posing for a photo (like a good boy), when a gaggle of Geese noisily flew over, and understandably, he was more interested in them than my camera.
