The Middle of Nowhere Called...

And they needed propane...at their cell tower. Not sure you can tell how desolate it is here from this 360° shot. But it is. (Eastern WA near Starbuck)

The tower is on top of a ridge. In the center near the left edge a piece of the Snake River is visible. Obviously that's the tower and my truck in the middle.Took me almost 1.5 hrs on a two-track cow path to get to the tower once I left the dirt road. I had 5 bars of service, though!

It was very pretty up there. Kinda wanted to just park the truck and stay a while.

Beautiful!

Cool.

Yuck. Looks like eastern Colorado.

You can't tell from the crappy picture but it's nothing like eastern CO. There are lots of canyons all around where the picture was taken. And the Snake River is stunningly beautiful. That location is about 3000' above the river, believe it or not.

More grass and a little less sage than sw WY, but the tower site looks about the same as the ones I climb for O/G stuff there.

It is fun being out away from anyone...

Used to repair/install stuff on towers, some much taller. Always amazed where they install these things...

This is a perfect time to play this Vintage 30 second Bob Hope classic. I know its probably a repost but it's always worth watching again.
