Re: [RC] Stirring up a Hornet's Nest - Sisu West Ranch
If you want to see some excitement, walk a pack
string over a ground bee's nest. A couple of years ago I was following a
pack string up Big Creek. All of a sudden, Ranger started to get real
nervous, and almost bucky. I quickly realized that he was being stung on
the belly by the hornets. I let him into his power trot (faster would have
been impossible). I quickly started to see the remains of the pack
string. A hat here, a mantee there, a person in the bushes etc. It
took us about an hour to collect and reload all of the critters. The
forest service was a bit late in getting their trail project
started.
PS. This is the Big Creek near my house, not
the Big Creek with the fire (at least so far this year).
