I doodlebugged a bit in Wyoming myself.

My favorite was when we ran a line over the Rattlesnake Mountains in January...with 48,000 lb. vibrator trucks.

The drive-around was over a 100 miles so we swung the line on foot.

It'd be good training for the 10th.

I was doodlebugging before the days of the vibrator. 150 ft shot holes with 25 lbs of 60% nitro at the bottom. Boom! Rocks and stuff all over the place if the shooter did not get the hole tamped all the way down. Those were the good old days. We worked Eastern Montana, the Red Desert and then did some uranium logging in Northern Nevada. Worked hard, played hard and learned bunches.
