Amerykański podręcznik obozowania w dziczy z początków XX wieku. Fragment dotyczący znoszenia niewygód:
Probably no men endure more hardships than do those whose professions call them out of doors. But they are unavoidable hardships. The cowboy travels with a tin cup and a slicker; the *cruiser* with a twentypound pack ; the prospector with a half blanket and a sack of pilot bread—when he has to. But on round-up, when the chuck wagon goes along, the cow-puncher has his "roll"; on drive with the wangan the *cruiser* sends his ample "turkey"; and the prospector with a burro train takes plenty to keep him comfortable.
Pomocy, bo w necie wyskakują mi same krążowniki i radiowozy. No i o co chodzi z tym "indykiem"???

According to the U.S. Forest Service, timber cruising “is the process of measuring forest stands to determine stand characteristics, such as average tree sizes, volume, and quality. The primary purpose of cruising is to obtain a volume estimation to appraise and prepare timber sales.”

timber cruiser
A timber cruiser was employed to survey the land available to log and estimate the amount of desirable timber available for the lumber company. Once the land had been cruised, lumber companies made bids to purchase either the land or the rights to cut the timber from it. A timber cruiser could have been self-employed, an employee of a single lumber company, or employed by multiple companies. Cruisers worked year-round, often embarking alone on extended cruising trips that spanned weeks or even months. In doing so, they fulfilled a crucial role in the lumber industry, and left a legacy of unique characters and stories.
