    The plant you saw at the end is actually a Chaparral Yucca. Fun fact about those plants, once they bloom (grow that big stalk that you see on the plant) and flower, the plant then dies. When they bloom, they can grow 6 inches in a single day.

    Matt, this is my back yard! Those antenna towers in the background house my repeater and several other amateur (HAM) and commercial repeaters @5300' above sea level. that fire road is controlled by US forest service and only people with "business" on Sunset Ridge should be on it with motorized vehicles.
    We actually had a "repeater service" crew drive into that very same ditch, well after dark. We made a couple calls and "So-Cal Offroad and Recovery" from facebook got us out of that ditch with a 2020 Toyota 4Runner named Booger within a couple hours of our call!
    They are off-road enthusiasts that recover folks for free, they are highly capable, well versed and practiced in some of the incredibly rugged and dangerous places in So-Cal (that was nowhere near the worst of our areas).
    It was fun seeing you guys in this neigborhood but it was a long way to go for a simple "drag-out" recovery in what we see as a Hiking and garden spot above La Verne and Claremont
    I'm glad it wasn't a wasted trip since you got to help Caitlans Dad and play in Johnson valley without the ridiculous crowds!

    Nice job and what timing for Caitlyn's dad. There was a guy in the local area that shut his business down (Rhino Recovery) and he would have handled the 1st recovery. Surprised that a couple of his buddies who are still in the business weren't reachable. Those Southern Cali hills are deceiving for sure. That wrecker never ceases to amaze me!

  • @scrape2735
    @scrape2735 6 місяців тому +5

    The plant at 23:05 is called Chaparral Yucca, it is different from Blue Agave (typically used for tequila). You cannot ferment Yucca into alcohol without adding a base first which can be complicated.
    It’s fruits, roots, stem, and flowers are all edible but can be somewhat astringent or bitter so it’s recommended that everything but the flowers (if they’re clean) be boiled to get rid of the bitter taste. Hope this helps if you’re in the middle of nowhere in trouble. Also you should always do your own research, I’m just some guy in the UA-cam comments. 👌

    • @schramrobert
      @schramrobert 3 місяці тому

      I loved seeing Yucca on the hillsides outside my house growing up in Southern California. I never new you can eat the roots until recently, though it might be e different variety then the ones I've eaten. I was very surprised when it came in a food box kit for making the yummiest French fries by frying the cut roots in olive oil. I always heard the native Indians ate it and my dad would say don't try to dig one up because it's hard work and it's "yuc." Now I see its roots in Asian California grocery stores which makes me think its a different variety since the Chaparral yucca only grows in California.
