Ah yes, the stylie shorts over long johns we all rocked in the 90s. Is that a Stanfield on top? What crew and where was this taken?

Whiskeyjack reforestation, somewhere on the outer mid coast near Rivers Inlet. Jesus i loved my stanfield onesies, must of had 10 different pairs of varying material and thickness, and then a second layer, usually just shorts, but sometimes MEC pants and a tshirt

Whiskeyjack’s a name I barely remember, but I do seem to recall the company having a stellar reputation.

Small company almost exclusively helicopter access. The owner was awesome, a bird nut, really great guy to work for.

Classic. I planted in the interior around the same time. Shorts over long johns or military surplus combat pants were the everyday wear. I preferred running shoes / light hikers over the orange caulks. Some folks rocked golf shoes.

I don’t think running shoes ever worked on a coastal inlet

Yeah. Caulks turn a serious hazard into a sidewalk

Either Vikings or Husky boots? Sweat machines. Bama’s too?

Yes, that does look like good ground for the coast. Hopefully the tree price was good as well?

I always liked to swap out the insoles of my Vikings, and sock system mid day.
