![]() Rafter J provided us with every single thing we could hope for in a basecamp and we don’t think you could find a better place to stay. When visiting such iconic and heavily touristed sites like Mount Rushmore, travelers often have to make concessions about their accommodations. Rafter J Bar Ranch is a very special campground, and we won’t forget our amazing stay there. But we were there towards the end of the season, and often inventory can be low at that time across the industry. The campground is good sized with over 150 sites and several cabins. And speaking of the camp store, Jeremy felt that it could have been better stocked with some basic necessities. Rafter J Bar Ranch While exploring Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills, the Rafter J Bar Ranch served as a great base camp. Cell service was fine throughout the campground, but WiFi is only available in the camp store area. We made our reservations over the phone, and the customer service was helpful and friendly. We spent a lot of time decompressing there after days of site seeing, and it was a just a lovely spot. It was a gas fire pit, so we could simply turn it on whenever we pleased and warm up in the chilly late afternoons and evenings. And our very favorite amenity might have been the beautiful community fire pit. Get Contact details, financial insights, industry benchmarks, competitors from. Our family had just come from roughing it in Custer State Park, so we particularly enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub. Find up to date company insights for Rafter J Bar Ranch. Lower Ranch Camp was quite a bit away from the highway and had nice access to amenities, but the sites seemed less spacious and a bit unlevel in certain spots. If you have bikes, or you don’t care about the pool and hot tub, The Island and Ranch Camp are so beautiful and peaceful. So again, you’re going to have to think about your personal camping preferences when booking at Rafter J. Note that satellite TV is available in this section only. I’m glad we didn’t stay in that area, though, since it has the least wooded and scenic feel of all the camps. If you have a big rig and love pull thrus and full hook ups, Main Camp might be your jam. We were a bit concerned about this when we arrived, but road noise did not bother us at all. The downside to these four camps is that they are the closest to the highway. ![]() Other ‘camps’ that are within close walking distance of these amenities include Main Camp, Base Camp, and Cabin Camp. Since we were not traveling with our bikes, we wanted to be close to the pool, playground, and camp store area. We chose to stay in Line Camp (on site 263) based on advice from our intrepid campground reporter, Kerri Cox. There is quite a range of amenities and scenery for each camp, and the best campsite will range dramatically for different visitors.

![]() In theory, that is in practice, as soon as I discovered I could put sunglasses on my blob, they were wearing them for the rest of the game. Lacking a mouth, your protagonist expresses their own joy (or terror) through their eyes, in a suitably adorable fashion. All are solvable with a little effort, though the real reward is seeing the sheer relief on the faces of the inhabitants who, thanks to your help, are one step closer to freedom. One moment you’ll be squeezing through holes, tripping switches in the correct order another you’ll be shoving a giant green worm around in an effort to return him to his mother. ![]() Pikuniku’s puzzles are pleasingly varied and amusingly bizarre. The game’s subdued soundtrack further adds to its chill factor as you, employing your blob’s only real means of attack, kick acorns into the river for no reason other than to hear the noise it makes or swing across the landscape in search of golden coins and other hidden treats. Assuming, that is, you actually get round to aiding them, since just roaming around the (relatively) open world is a joy in itself. Pikuniku‘s world, while relatively small, is packed with all manner of endearing inhabitants who are relying on you to save them from the evil Mr Sunshine and his resource-harvesting robots. Instead, the best way to enjoy Pikuniku is to lean into its absurdity, rather than asking why a pine cone can be used as an explosive device, or how a single strand of spider-thread can support the weight of your blobby protagonist. Pikuniku is an absolute delight to behold and a lot of fun with it, but it’s about as deep as a paddling pool. Yes, Pikuniku is a silly game – although its store page seems oddly unwilling to embrace this, claiming that you’ll “uncover a deep state conspiracy, and start a fun little revolution in this delightful dystopian adventure”. I’ve also discovered that you can get into a nightclub nude as long as you’re wearing sunglasses, and that you should never trust a blancmange who offers you free money. That’s one of the many valuable life lessons I’ve learnt from Pikuniku, a puzzle-exploration adventure which channels Katamari Damacy’s surreal aesthetic.

Nothing was off-limits when they put their masks on. It came to a point where they would do anything he asked. Bullying, vandalism, and theft were essentially their weekend plans. ![]() He lined up nights of debauchery and rampage, testing their limits. Frank saw it as an opportunity to shape their lack of experience into something powerful. Their time together was the perfect break from the boring conformity of their small, insignificant everyday lives. They would hang out at an abandoned lodge up Mount Ormond. He met the impulsive Joey, who liked to show off, and the shy, naïve Susie, who was Julie's best friend. Frank attended the parties she threw where everyone was younger than him and easily impressed, which he liked. Frank did everything he could to get into another adoptive family, but he changed his mind when he caught the attention of Julie, a beautiful girl who was convinced that she deserved better than a life in Ormond, and Frank, as an outsider, was her ticket out. Ormond was a small, stale place a remote town of six thousand inhabitants where grey winters drag on for most of the year. Clive was too busy trading cheques from Family Services for drinks at the bar. It would be the longest time they'd spend together. They'd been on the road for seven hours before reaching a small bungalow in Ormond. His last move had been three years prior when his last foster dad, Clive Andrews, had picked him up from the adoption centre. No matter how many times he'd lashed out, threw tantrums and got into fights, they'd kept moving him to new, unfamiliar houses. At six years old, he'd been taken away from Calgary to start a circuit of foster homes. Yet Frank was a man of potential, who could light up a room despite his bleak childhood. He'd stopped attending school after being kicked out of the basketball team for shoving a referee into the stands. ![]() The Sunny Family Cult ( Sunny Family Cult series/ Crypt TV)įrank Morrison was nineteen and had little to show for it.Alex DeLarge and his Droogs ( A Clockwork Orange). It's become my favorite running music of all time.)) that goes with that. In short, the author tracks down some of the music that may or may not have inspired Paul Simon's seminole album. What I thought was a slightly corny, throw-away tune turned out to have a much more interesting history! Right up my musically-leaning, liberal arts alley - the original melting-pot, world-fusion tune! Long, long, long before Paul Simon's Graceland and the interesting and slightly-similar story ((If you love Graceland as I do you owe it to yourself to read this post and listen to the audio at Hectic City. As of 2006 Linda's heirs have reached a settlement with the distribution company that licensed the rights of the derived tunes to Disney. Years later the song's popularity would be resurrected yet again with The Lion King. Sadly, Solomon died shortly after in 1962, having received little compensation beyond an initial check from Seeger. Remarkably there were about six versions of that song recorded before The Tokens recorded the one my mother and many generations most likely remember in 1961: That version still lacks the words you're probably familiar with, but it's a wonderful marriage of the original melodies and an American folksy feeling. He must've liked it because he adapted a version of the song for his group The Weavers and retitled it Wimoweh - a not unreasonable mishearing by American-English ears for what turns out to have been uyimbube ((Uyimbube! All this time! It's Zulu for "You are a lion" but wimoweh is just. This song became a hit in South Africa and found its way over to the United States around 1949 where it was noticed by Pete Seeger. It's unclear to me if that improvisation is captured here - presumably it is - but you can listen to the 1939 recording with Solomon Linda and the Evenings Birds:Īround 2:22 you hear him improvise a melody that sounds much more familiar to modern audiences. Per this wonderful writeup from Rolling Stone, it was during the third take that Solomon improvised the line In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight. In fact, the words and melodies on top of the familiar "wimoweh" background vocals were largely improvised. Originally the tune was called Mbube - Zulu for "lion" - and featured no words in English. At Hellerman's suggestion, 5 the group took its name from a play by Gerhart Hauptmann, Die Weber ( The Weavers 1892), a powerful work depicting the uprising of the Silesian weavers in 1844 which contains the lines, 'I'll stand it no more, come what may'. It turns out the origins of the song go all the way back to 1939 and that it was written by a South African Zulu musician named Solomon Linda. The Weavers were formed in November 1948 by Hays, Seeger, Ronnie Gilbert, and Fred Hellerman. What I thought was pseudo-world music, faux-African pastiche from the very early 1960s demonstrating possibly dubious taste turned out to be much more interesting! I thought it was enjoyable and reminded me what a nice, simple song it was. My mom sent me a link the other day to Jimmy Fallon and Billy Joel performing a two-man rendition of The Lion Sleeps tonight on the Tonight Show: The surprising history behind The Lion Sleeps Tonight Nidhogg is the cause of the world�s troubles and misery, the eagle is the world�s high ideals and joy and Ratatosk is the tension between the two. Everything that happens in Yggdrasill is reflected in the human world. ![]() If the eagle spoke any negativity toward the great serpent, which happened just as often, Ratatosk would run down Yggdrasill to tell Nidhogg of it. The squirrel Ratatosk runs up the tree to tell the eagle of every curse or insult Nidhogg utters about the eagle. The eagle sits atop the World Tree and has knowledge in many things. Murderers, adulterers, and oath breakers are forced to wade through those rivers.Ī loathing is felt between Nidhogg and a nameless eagle that lived at the very top of Yggdrasill. The hall is made of serpents whose heads blow venom, forming rivers that run the length of the hall. On Nastrond is a great hall of evil whose doors face north. Nastrond is one section of Niflheim where those that did not die heroic deaths go. Nidhogg lies upon Nastrond, the corpse shore. Every day the Norns draw water from Urd�s Well and take sand that lies around it, which they pour over the World Tree to heal it, undoing all of the damage done to it by its inhabitants including Nidhogg. There are four deer, Dainn, Dvalinn, Duneyrr, and Durathror, who eat the leaves and gnaw on the branches of the tree. He is not the only creature that eats away at Yggdrasill. He hopes to chew through the root causing the World Tree to fall and bring about the end of the world. Nidhogg is a monstrous serpent that relentlessly gnaws on the deepest root of Yggdrasill. Above the spring lies the dragon Nidhogg, the dread biter. Hvergelmir, the wellspring of cold and the source of all cold rivers, is located here. The third root leads Niflheim, where Hel rules the Underworld. Mimir�s Well, that contains all the wisdom in the world, is under this root guarded by Mimir. The second root goes to Jotunheim, the land of frost giants and trolls. Urd�s Well, where the Norns live, is under this root. The first root goes to the home of the gods, Asgard, where they go every day to hold court. Its branches extend up into the heavens and it is supported beneath the earth by three roots. ![]() N Norse mythology, there is an immense ash tree called Yggdrasill.

When humans began to settle in the land, the dragons offered them much knowledge, allowing them to prosper and advance, eventually creating a powerful city known as Thabes. His sister, Mila, blessed the lands to allow prosperity for the dragons, earning the title of King's Grail. He served Naga, the ruler of the Dragon tribes and the strongest of the Divine Dragons, protecting her with his military might, earning the title of Kingshield along with her favor. Thousands of years ago, Duma was born in the Divine Dragon tribe of Archanea. However, his own degeneration led this mindset to be warped into him wishing to "slay Mila" instead.Īs Duma continued to degenerate, he began to desire nothing but power and conquest, as he attempted to get Emperor Rudolf to make preparations to conquer Zofia for years. According to Fernand in his final moments, Duma had become nothing more than an incarnation of the lust for power due to his madness. Regardless, he seemed to hold a sense of care for mankind in his rule over Valentia, which caused him to argue with his sister, as he saw Mila as naive and foolish to believe that a life without misery was a happy one, forcing them to part ways.ĭespite all that happened, Duma does hold love for his sister, as he never once used the Falchion against her, with his desire to seal Mila with Falchion only being done out of love, so that she would not succumb to degeneration like he would. However, he fears their potential, ordering the city of Thabes destroyed after seeing the progress of its inhabitants. His single remaining eye glows red.Ī proud dragon that held firm beliefs, Duma was once loyal to Naga, serving as the leader of her army, but after his banishment, he developed such a deep hatred for her that he ordered humans to construct a tower to face Archanea, the land Naga ruled.īelieving that humans can only achieve happiness by struggling for it, since it helps them grow strong, Duma sees humanity as weak and needing to rely on gods. However, years of degeneration have caused Duma's body to slowly rot, exposing bones and destroying two eyes. He possesses two curved horns, three eyes, and a beard. He wears ivory, bronze, and gold armor along with a red cape.Īs a Divine Dragon, Duma is quadrupedal with two large wings. In the center of his forehead is a red jewel that represents his draconic third eye. As a Manakete, Duma appears as a muscular, green-haired man with the pointed ears typical of his species.
