"Mount Sinaloa"




November 21, 2017. The Late Season.

I chose a ridge along the western slope of the Cascades to hunt blacktail deer. Ruthless wind, snow, and NW signature rain gave the AO the name "Mount Sinaloa." The area contains a clear cut that drops down to a basin, bordered by old growth timber. I will park the truck on opposite side of the mountain around 2000 ft elevation, and start my stalk through the dark timber. The peak is a little over 2800 ft. I will conduct my experience through trail cams and boots on the ground.

Trail camera location: End of a finger ridge around 2400 ft.

November 18 @ 0733, 33 degrees, clear sky. A doe cautiously walking down the finger ridge. 15 minutes later, a herd of elk (10+) were feeding right behind her.

@1503, 2+ elk were feeding up the ridge.

November 19, 0926, 35 degrees, sunny. Same elk herd feeding up the ridge.

BJJ Journal: Single Leg X

The hardest thing in the world is to be ourselves. Who are we? Our family tells us, society tells us, laws and customs tell us. But what do we say? How do we get to that place of self-knowledge and conviction where we are able to state without doubt, fear or anger, “This is who I am, this is what I believe, this is how I intend to live my life”? ~ Steven Pressfield  Gym: The Base Jiu Jitsu taught by Professor Dealy   TRAINING LOG: • Single Leg X flow drills. Partner standing over your chest. Put one hand on the inside of the knee and the other arms wrapped around the ankle grabbing own lapel.  • SL-X sweep w/ lapel as leash. • SL-X, opponent defends with pushing ankle/leg off hip, w/ lapel as leash pull down and use leg to bump forward, when he comes back up slide into SL-X on his other leg. • Opponent has full mount, hip bump to one side to create space and shrimp to create even more space into SL-X, then either technical stand up if he stays...
