Glad to see Dane on your program, he is definitely an unsung hero! My wife and I live at 4200 ft elevation in SW Idaho. The sun is absolutely BRUTAL with my skin burning even through my clothes and I have to plant my gardens where they will have enough shade or my plants really suffer. Thankfully here we still have some signs of wildlife, such as bird, aquatic, and insect life but truthfully not 25% as much as I remember in the 70's or 80's. It truly is the end of days.
