I'll give Kiffin this - he's pretty accurate and right in his high usage of 4th down calls.

Napier, on the other hand, just seems to use it recklessly. I get you sometimes call them on your own side of the field in certain cases, but he's pretty careless and it'll come back to bite him in the long run.

Not gonna happen, but I really want UK to win this game. Don't want Lame in the top 10, and want UK undefeated when they come to Neyland for a soul crushing loss.

Nah. SEC East Teams losing is always better for us. I’d also prefer Kentucky football fans realize their program has a hard ceiling. People predicting playoffs this year for them was laughable.

No...but I always wanted to go there and Cirque of the Towers. I will never get to go there now though thanks to my health.

I watch a guy on YT that loves the Wind Rivers and he says that they are the best hiking in the States in his opinion, and he travels all over the west going to those places.


I wish the Wind Rivers had more vehicle access...but they don't, they are for hard core healthy outdoorspeople.

There are two exceptions to the inaccessibility of the Wind River Range. The last twenty miles or so are slow slogging via gravel road, but Lower Green River Lake is fully accessible by road. To quote my article, "The view from the shores of Lower Green River Lake, with Squaretop Mountain looming in the background, encompasses the most uniquely recognizable landscape in the Wind River Range. Visitors to this showpiece destination will find themselves 52 miles from the nearest town, so every moment of solitude experienced in such remote and pristine country should be savored. From Pinedale, head northwest on U.S. Highway 191 for six miles and turn right on Wyoming Route 352. Follow the latter road for 25.3 miles to the boundary of Bridger-Teton National Forest, where the pavement ends. Continue on the Green River Lakes Road, designated initially as Forest Service Road 600 and, later, as FR Road 650, for 18.5 miles to a signed intersection for the Green River Lakes campground and trailhead."

Additionally, "The Skyline Drive begins at Pinedale and, over the course of 16 miles, gains more than 2,000 feet in elevation before terminating at the Elkhart Park trailhead. Fully paved, this road enters aspen habitat after seven miles, near the turnoff to Half Moon Lake. An interpretive pullout, located 1.4 miles from Elkhart Park, affords as good a glimpse into the distant heart of the rugged Wind River Range as any visible from a paved road."

I've been to Lonesome Lake, which is often used as a base camp for the Cirque of the Towers but, yes, that was via backpacking when my back was 44 years younger.

By the way, I have an article that will be published in the Winter 2022-2023 issue of "Big Sky Journal," which will pertain to the classic mountain man era, particularly the Rocky Mountain Rendezvous period (1825-1840). Incidentally, if you've never been there, the next time you visit the Tetons, make it a point of emphasis to also visit the Museum of the Mountain Man in Pinedale. See Museum of the Mountain Man and Hugh Glass Diorama - Museum of the Mountain Man. They also have an annual Green River Rendezvous there on the second weekend of July, should that be of interest: Green River Rendezvous - Museum of the Mountain Man.
