Will this buff out?

[Ryan Thomas]

I'm in Palo Alto quite a bit for work and the first time I saw them I was floored at how messy they were. The shreds of bark that fall off have to be an instant accelerant to any fires in the area.

It's not so much the bark, but that it's FULL of eucalyptus oil that is *extremely flammable*!
The oil isn't all bad, though - it's also a very good natural pest deterrent for the trees and other things around it.
But, one errant spark and POOF!

I think the spare tire and wheel are still good

Anyone need a pair of fog lights?

 

[jgaz]

Dibs on the fog lights!!

Yikes! Is that up in Humboldt? Sure looks familiar... like 254 or maybe the 20 from Willits to Ft. Bragg.
I've seen a couple of those come down, and it's *never* a small cleanup!

no, Santa Cruz Mountains - up near Zayante or Lompico.

Nice! I go through that area a lot as well. Anyplace that has redwoods/woods etc that I can tromp thorough

Make sure to use the black zip ties, they are more weather and UV resistant!

So technically speaking, we could have Koalas here...

We have too many invasive species in America. Huge pythons, flying Asian carp, etc. The last thing we need is a drop bear problem.

Poor Jeep. It's tough, yet ending Old Yeller's misery is the most humane solution.

We have a lot of Big Redwood trees over in the Boonville, they don't fall down as often as the tan oaks.

I've gone through Booneville many, many times as well!
I *always* stop at Gowan's stand up in Philo for some almonds and whatever fruit/veggies are ripe... So tasty!
128 is a great drive to cut over to Mendo from the 101 on my way up north.

Out in my other Jeep (Rzr) .... checking roads in the winter and came across this smaller tan oak that we had to cut out of the road.

Have you had their apple cider? You can't leave there without having some of there apple cider!

I just can't drink Apple cider anymore... I grew up next to an orchard, and the thought of it makes me want to be sick
They do have excellent almonds, though, when they are in season.

 

[lowranger]

Okay....after you get their almonds then grab a 6 pack of beer then.

Oh.....sorry JB. Then you can have some wine then and I'll have a beer (or 2). :Saeufer:
