I ran a combine in two fields that sound like the one you were in only east of Ft Hall Idaho on reservation land. Went up miles of narrow winding path in 2nd range because the hydro couldn’t pull it in hi range. Went around a bend and a mamma moose took off into the trees with her calf.
Got to the field and had the ‘privilege’ of making the first round around the field where the end of the header was hanging over a 300’ sheer drop off. The second field was right up there but less eventful but got to watch a mama moose and her calf walk across the field. I don’t know what the elevation was, it was 5000 feet at the bottom of the mountain before we went up to the field but when I kicked in the separator the combine Engine about killed and poured out black smoke till the turbo spooled up. Quite an experience for an Iowa flatlander. Wish I could do it again sometime. I don’t know why they farm that 7 bpa wheat land but it was a neat experience.
