Wallowa Mountains sunset (August 1, 2024)

Take off (August 1, 2024)

This guy took off at just over 8,100 feet and within minutes was well over 10,000 feet. He flies around for a few hours, lands on a different mountain, and sets up camp before doing it again the next day. He was down to some sardines and a family-size bottle of liquor on this day.
