biggrin.gif Great stuff I would also be curious to know how one does get the 5 gallons of wolf urine. No offense taken by the jokes and kidding around I love a good sense of humor and it takes a lot more than that to scare me off. Good info. Thanks again and thanks for the warm welcome...Here in Indiana we can stand warm anything. UNLESS OF COURSE IT IS WOLF URNIE !! laugh.gif

You wont be here in the winter months, so you don't have to worry about snow hogs... other than that, there are no dangers...

This is exactly why I would no longer come in the summer because if I did these people would be verbally abused at a very loud volume and it would be things said that there children should not hear and probably someone would want to fight and they would lose...............rfr

Elk aren't anything to worry about. Same for bears. Watch out for the marmots. Most people don't know this, but they're poisonous. If you see one, remember these steps:
1. Stay calm.
2. "Get Tall" by raising you arms above your head.
3. Start screaming obscenities. The saltier the better.
4. Without turning your back to it, slowly retreat a distance of 1,000 yards
5. Alert the nearest park ranger immediately.
