One man’s junk is another man’s treasure.

Morning along a road in Babcock Wildlife Management Area near Punta Gorda, Florida. Fred C. Babcock/Cecil M. Webb Wildlife Management Area is Florida's oldest Wildlife Management Area and protects 80,772 acres just south and east of Punta Gorda in Charlotte and Lee Counties, Florida.

A section of the vast Forumile Management Area east of Buena Vista, Colorado. The rounded peaks in the far background are Buffalo Peaks and the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness. The rock formation in the center is called Castle Rock. I often spot Bighorn Sheep near and around it. The area is jointly managed by the US Forest Service, BLM, Friends of Fourmile and other groups.

This fire seemed to be on Forest Service land, though I was on national park land.

I’ve just come back from shopping at Tesco’s, and I don’t know about you but I found it stressful! Shopping I ask you, stressful, good grief what is the world coming to. I’m at an age now where I’m at a higher risk of this virus being a one to miss, still the percentages of getting through it are very good but I’m taking no risks. A year ago I took this photo on my way down from Hart Crag, the mountain behind the rowan tree, obscured by clag. I had approached the mountain from Deepdale, deciding when I was in the hanging valley below Greenhow End, not to go up the step, a scramble up the crag to the summit plateau, a climb I had good experience of. I had weighed up the risk, it looked like bad weather on top with enough snow on the rocks to give it an edge, my balance is not what it was and I was solo. So I decided on an easier route, to head for the col between Dove Crag and Hart Crag and on to the summit, although I still felt the need to put my crampons on nearing the top. On the top it was a whiteout and I careful noted my route to the summit cairn. I was to follow it again on the way down as I intended to descend by Hartsop above How. The point of this story is that I knew what I was doing from many years in the mountains, understood my diminishing abilities in this terrain and managed my survival accordingly. However this virus is something different, I have no experience of this type of situation, don’t understand what we are dealing with, and relying on the advice of a government/leader (which I’m following to the letter) who I usually passionately disagree with. So outside of my enforced cocoon going shopping was very stressful. But there is always a bright side, during that hour I focused on the task in hand and anxiety for my far away children took a temporary backseat, I was in the same zone a year ago on that mountain.

Sun Valley, CA

3/4/17

 

WMmaster626, Alex Clemmans and I headed over to Waste Management Sun Valley to check out their fleet. Sun Valley recently received 2 new LNG Peterbilt Amreps that will most likely end up in Palmdale once Sun Valley receives their new CNG fleet. There were also thousands of new black dumpsters all over the Sun Valley yard that extended to where the Bradley Landfill once was active. The Sun Valley staff was great and even started up the Road Commander for us. Thank you WMmaster626, Alex Clemmans for a great day and special thanks to the friendly Waste Management staff at Sun Valley.

Waste Management's Wheeling division is home for this unit, as well as two other identical models. These three units make up a small fraction of their automated front loaders with the others being mounted on either a Mack LEU or Autocar ACX.

In forest management, prescribed fire is used by foresters to reduce accumulation of weeds and brush thereby preventing dangerous wildfires and allowing more water and nutrients to be used by existing trees. Also more vegetation can sprout from seeds becoming a food source for wildlife. By the end of summer this forest will be green with new wild plants.

This unit, and several others like it, have slowly been demoted to yard waste collection and spare duty as Waste Management locations across the Chicagoland area have converted to Natural Gas or simply updated their fleets. Five years ago, McNeilus Front Loaders of this age could be found with either a Curotto Can or carry can working in most of Waste Management's towns. While these trucks still have plenty of life in them, newer equipment has taken over the heavier trash and recycling routes.

 

This Mack was seen handling leaves in Oak Park.
