Here Kitty Kitty Kitty
An interesting tidbit of information showed up in my inbox this afternoon. Seems there's been a number of BIG kitty sightings in and around Guaje Canyon; more specifically, near the Rendija/Guaje Canyon junction- which, I believe, is where this photo was snapped (sorry about the poor quality, but you get the idea!).
Rumor has it, it's a big'un- not that it matters much, so be careful out there and if you're gonna' be riding solo in the area, be sure to take the proper precautions. Actually, now that I think about it...what are the proper precautions? Ah, crap! Any suggestions?

Suggestions? Douse yourself with the urine of a larger cat? Wow. I would hope that the noise of riding would scare it off, but you never know. Maybe I'll add a few links to the chain to rattle it up a little...
Crazy. Where is that photo from? I mean where online.

The photo isn't from online. Monica forwarded it to me. Here is the text from the email:
"This lion was seen close to the Rendija Canyon Guaje Canyon intersection a couple of days ago. Please use caution.
My grave yard operator saw it also the next morning down by old well 6 in the Guaje. He said it was a big one
Morning, I don't know the time of day the picture was taken. My operator saw him/her about 4:30 in the morning. He thinks it went down to get a drink because it was coming up out of the wash and heading up hill."
That thar picture is from Guaje Canyon- best I can figure.
I recommend riding like you are a wounded deer.
Am I the only one who really really really wants to see one of these guys in the wild? I have worked at two different labs with breeding populations in and around the lab and have never seen one. Dammit. I just need to see a big one once, and then I will be OK with not seeing them again. I am bored of flushing coyotes in mortendad canyon.
Mayhap we should rebuild the Guaje canyon trail to increase our chances of seeing this little feller. (And, because it's a kick ass trail)
