Thursday "TIE HACK" Camp Farewell.

Finally, we got an answer! Where does the 'Tie Hack' come from?

Peggy (Camp Host):
"I thought it was Indian...."
Connie: "Cowboy original. The way they tied cattle for branding..." Jack: 'Some hunting slang. It's a rack they hang dead animals on'.
Peggy (Camp Host): "The lodge-pole pine forest was used for making ties, for the railroad tracks."
Left Tie Hack Camp at 10:30 heading West - or so we thought. 2-3 miles outside camp, all hell broke loose with massive hail storm. Hardly made it up a steep hill. Parked at turnout ( yesterday's). Turning back to camp.
Not too hazardous but steep grades - back at Tie Hack for another night. Boy, what a slchep.もっと詳しく
