    Beautiful pics and area. Thanks for taking us along.

    I disagree that there isn't much "survival stuff". It's getting out like that that keeps us sane.

    Leave it to a lineman to post pics of transmission lines. One lineman giving directions to another lineman. "Oh sure. I know where that is. Follow the 115Kv until you reach the sub then follow the 33Kv to pole 64. Take a left and it's about four spans.

    Great pics.

    I agree, that is absolutely breathtaking! I could use a "survival environment" like some of you are privy too!...

    I figured it was appropriate. I don;t work on them anymore, but I do generate what travels down them.
