MCE Best of 2017: Honorable Mention
Movies: Only The Brave
Year four of my annual salute to a movie TV show and song, while not making the list it did make a significant impact for the year on  another level.
And this list kicks off with a personal connection to what someone i know all to well actually does for a living.
Prescott Arizona is located right on the edge of a vast forest. The area is susceptible to wildfires like nobody business.
The defense of the town comes from an outside city limits fire crew known as The Granite Mountain Hotshots.
Enter young Brendan McDonough a burnout on his last bridges, who arrives on the scene with only a determination to prove himself and redeem his young daughter.
As that crew of 20 would go through the fire seasons gaining experience and popularity among the veteran hotshot teams who always go on the front lines of defense. 
But, their bravery came at a valiant sacrifice when all but McDonough were killed in Yarnell Hills when the flames would surround them while trying to escape.
A truer than true story that is magnificently brought to life via great turns from Miles Teller, Josh Brolin and Jennifer Connely
This hit me personally as my brother in Redding actually goes into the same storm that Josh Brolin describes in vivid detail. While no fire bears were near him, his daily life makes me ponder how many other heroes there are that defend places and small towns that need it the most.
Those Hotshots gave their lives for a purpose and that truly makes them heroes.
Sum 22: The firefighters of the wild get their story told first hand via Only The Brave’s excellent style and heroic overtones.

Today we returned to Baghdad with our trailer to retrieve something we found off the side of a trail and to see how well the trailer could handle being pulled through said trails. That didn’t go so well, snapped the hitch clean off it’s frame and in true @roadkillshow fashion our first attempt at rigging it back together failed almost immediately. Unfortunately I didn’t take any photos of our second attempt because I was too concerned with making it so we could get the damn thing home but what we ended up doing was we took the braces from the trailer jack and used them to brace the hitch back to the frame. All that said it was gorgeous coming down through Yarnell and still a fun time spent with my dad, @amandakavechuco, & my niece. #BecauseRoadkill #FlexSealYota #Bagdad #Yarnell #Arizona #ExploreArizona

'Only the Brave' Celebrates the Lives of Those who Risk Everything to Keep Others Safe
‘Only the Brave’ Celebrates the Lives of Those who Risk Everything to Keep Others Safe
Tumblr media
While watching “Only the Brave,” I kept thinking of what Mike Kellerman said in an episode of “Homicide: Life on the Street:” “Fire is a living thing. It eats, it breathes air, it can be killed. Something about that power draws people in.” This dialogue played in my head while Josh Brolin stares at a wildfire off in the distance, wondering which direction it will spread in. From this, we can…

This painting was done in tribute to the Granite Mountain Hotshots who were killed in the Yarnell Hill Wildfire on June 30, 2013. 19 of the 20 members died that day.  One of my friends is from Prescott and news of the tragedy really struck a chord in my circle of Arizona friends, so it affected me too; I painted this as the firefighters were being carried to the cemetery for burial. This is one of the most emotional pieces I’ve ever done and if anyone knows who has the original I would be gratified to connect with them, for no other reason than to finally find out where it ended up. The original painting was acrylic on a piece of MDF that was about 12″x24″:
Ashcraft, Andrew – Age: 29
Caldwell, Robert – Age: 23
Carter, Travis – Age: 31
Deford, Dustin – Age: 24
MacKenzie, Christopher – Age: 30
Marsh, Eric – Age: 43
McKee, Grant – Age: 21
Misner, Sean – Age: 26
Norris, Scott – Age: 28
Parker, Wade – Age: 22
Percin, John – Age: 24
Rose, Anthony – Age: 23
Steed, Jesse – Age: 36
Thurston, Joe – Age: 32
Turbyfill, Travis – Age: 27
Warneke, William – Age: 25
Whitted, Clayton – Age: 28
Woyjeck, Kevin – Age: 21
Zuppiger, Garret – Age: 27
I’m very grateful for these firefighters who laid down their lives to protect others; I pray that their families are comforted and that all of their needs will be met.

PLYMOUTH ROCK? - House for sale in Yarnell, Arizona.  The seller included multiple photos of big rocks on the property.  Because?  They are filled with gold or precious metals?  They have historical significance?  They are alien space pods?  Maybe the seller was stoned or wanted to leave a boulder impression? 9-14-21

Mark and the crew are grateful for the tremendous support we have experienced since the race began and especially when Mark needed medical treatment. While everyone on the crew has competed themselves in hot conditions, the intensity of the heat dome in California and Arizona at the beginning of RAAM this year is some we haven’t seen before.
When Mark re-entered the race on Wednesday afternoon it was 106 degrees. The first several hours of riding were in the desert beginning at 300 feet above sea level. Mark continued to struggle with the heat and progress was a challenge. He made it to Congress, Arizona a little before midnight. As I write this he is doing well on a big mountain climb up the Yarnell Grade in the headlights of the follow car. Fingers crossed! We all feel fortunate to be here to enjoy this beautiful and harsh landscape, trying to make good decisions without regret later. Thanks and stay tuned.
Oh and one last tidbit from a conversation between Mark and his doctor as recalled by crew member Eric Nafziger. The Doctor asked Mark if "he was gonna get back on the bike"? When Mark said "yes," the doctor huffed & said "I figured - oh well you guys can keep coming in & we will hydrate you - it's good revenue".

January 2020 Mangum Dental Hike-of-the-Month The Top 5 Hikes in 5 Years
Happy New Year!  The end of 2019 marks over 5 years since Mangum Dental has been publishing a hike each month.  We have hiked and shared more than 60 hikes in diverse locations and for many different hiking preferences.  We celebrate this new year by featuring the top 5 hikes in the past 5 years.  All hikes can be found at MangumDental.com, clicking on “Hike of the Month” or type hikeofthemonth.mangumdental.com into your web browser.  Most of the hikes are near Prescott, Arizona, however you will find a other locations as well.
Before I reveal the top hikes, I have a short disclaimer.  These hikes reflect my personal experiences and bias.  I am always looking for new hikes so I don’t often hike the same trail multiple times.  Therefore, my list may be skewed by the weather, hiking companions, time of year, and general mood.
Tumblr media
#1 Cedar Flats to Maiden Falls in the West Clear Creek Wilderness Area (see September 2018 Mangum Dental Hike-of-the-Month): This is clearly my favorite hike in the last 5 years.  Why?  It may have been the company or the multi-day adventure.  We didn’t know much about this area or what to expect when we set out.  My teenage daughter and I had a marvelous time swimming and hiking.  In a couple of areas, this hike requires a swim through a channel to make it to Maiden Falls.
Tumblr media
#2 Grandfather Juniper Tree Hike (see July 2016 Mangum Dental Hike-of-the-Month): This hike and its write-up has produced the most interest on social media, comments from patients, and talk around town.  This tree and hike became popular after the Granite Mountain Hot Shots saved it from the Doce Pit Fire in June 2013.  The iconic photo of the Granite Mountain Hot Shots in front of the tree became legendary shorty after the tragedy in Yarnell only a few days later.
Tumblr media
#3 Devil’s Bridge: Sedona, Arizona (July 2015 Mangum Dental Hike-of-the-Month): This more well-known and popular hike is located west of Sedona in the beautiful red rocks.  This unique geological feature and the opportunity to walk on the natural bridge makes this interesting, fun, and memorable.  
Tumblr media
#4 Yeager Canyon Loop Trail (May 2018 Mangum Dental Hike-of-the-Month): This loop is the combination of trails #28, #111, and #553 and has beautiful views, challenging elevation gains, and remote feeling so close to town.  
Tumblr media
#5 Granite Gardens in Granite Dells (April 2019/August 2014 Mangum Dental Hike-of-the-Month):  I am certain that I loved this hike because my three young sons went with me.  This is an easy hike in the Granite Dells area and is a perfect leisurely hike.  Youngsters can run feely climbing on boulders.  It is certainly the easiest and shortest of the top 5 hikes.
Honorable Mention hikes go to Robber’s Roost: Sedona (December 2015), The Wave (February 2016), Granite Mountain Hotshot Memorial (June 2017), Pine Mountain Loop (April 2018), and Constellation Trail (October 2014). We hope you have enjoyed these hikes and are certain that the next 5 years will bring more adventure and memories.  
At Mangum Dental we love that you have enjoyed the last 5 years of hikes.  We hope that we can earn your trust with a smile.  We can be reached for dental questions and consultation at 928-778-4110.
