The Mutton Bone

It was while climbing the hill near camp that I spotted this 1898 installation.   





The next day we went back so Suzan could enjoy the view. It was a leisurely quarter mile and about midway across she noticed something delicately poised on the edge. It took some scrutiny -- it had weathered -- but eventually I recognized it as a post-dinner offering to the coyotes from two evenings earlier...the bone from the lamb I'd enjoyed. The Trickster had cleverly placed it for Suzan's discriminating eyes.










Albrecht Durer nodded with satisfaction at this view.  








Erected & re-erected








Safely kept switch.
