This Gravel Trail Is Very Likely Chris’s Path Of Return.

….“Later the crunch of gravel tells me Chris is coming back down the trail. He didn’t go very far. When he arrives he says, "Let’s go." We retie the pack, which has started to shift a little, and then move out on the highway. The sweat from sitting there cools suddenly from the wind.
.... We’re still stuck on that screw and the only way it’s going to get unstuck is by abandoning further examination of the screw according to traditional scientific method. That won’t work. What we have to do is examine traditional scientific method in the light of that stuck screw.” (Cont. Next)

Colgate Lick Rest Area, Lochsa River Canyon, ID. Pay attention to the Narrator’s “We retie the pack, which has started to shift a little” and “sweat from sitting there cools suddenly … ”. These poetically amplify the Narrator's current "stuck screw“ Chautauqua.
…. Readjusting the shifted pack and retying the load corresponds to re-evaluating, in a big way, how one looks at the "stuck screw” ! And, if one finally does achieve a new great solution to the "stuck screw”, then this will be a nice breeze that “cools suddenly from the wind” !!
….So, the shifting of the pack and need to re-tie, is by metaphoric transfer, telling us about the need for Quality Action, to refine and improve on the limitations of traditional scientific method.

….NEW TOPIC:
…Chris did not go very far because the Narrator did not go with him. NO FUN. Had the Father gone with the Son, they might have both together shared in discovering the old mineral springs and salt lick, mentioned in the previous photo! Apparently, there all kinds of interesting animal tracks are around there.
