on today's long walk, met a friend, we're on a dirt road which essentially goes nowhere (which we like), when suddenly seven van loads of soldiers shoot by us....laughter ensues, had to figure they were lost (there IS a military firing range and Mountain Warfare School in the area, but in the complete opposite direction)...sure enough, five minutes later, back they come. These guys are taught to read maps, right? I smell a GPS snafu, very common around here.
