Some clips from our triplecrown hike a few years ago put together to some good music by "War" This shows our hiking style which consists of being out there when no one else is, jamming, slingshot, pissing buffalos etc. We have a lot of fun when we go out hiking. Enjoy!

As you hike up to the B-36 crash site, keep in mind this video.  Take a look at the jet engines, the landing gear, and the propellers.  You will see the jet engine, a main landing gear, and several propellers.
