Haven't done a long trip with them yet, that will come in March/April but initial impression is that new they are quieter than my AT/3's were when they were getting close to worn out.

2020, he was just re-elected in this last cycle... I am torn. A part of me thinks that I should boycott Utah and spend time exploring the desert landscapes of CA, NV, NM, CO AZ and OR. Yet I think about the small businesses in Escalante, Hanksville, Bluff and other small towns that are...

Just received a propane campfire from www.quikfire.com seems to be a well made unit and the legs fold in making it more compact for transport than other alternatives out there. I've also confirmed that propane campfires of this type are OK for both the White Rim and Tuweep, both are upcoming...

Yeah and Emerald Expositions that owns Outdoor Retailer also owns Interbike and had been looking at moving it to Utah but that is now off the table..

Today there was a conference call between many Outdoor Industry Leaders and Gov. Hebert. I'm not always a big fan of the OIA (Outdoor Industry Association) but here is their release following that call, sounds like the powers that be in Utah won't budge. Though the effort to shrink GSENM...

Benchmark definitely has a Utah Atlas

Currently live in an apartment for a reason, snow removal consists of brushing off the truck.

For anyone who might be attending the town hall tonight Jeremy Collins has put some posters out on a dropbox account.

The OR show isn't what it used to be. Most of the larger companies are showing their lines to key accounts well in advance of the show, in fact pre-season orders are frequently due to these companies before the show dates for best pricing. Where the show is important is for smaller companies...

Just got back from the shoe store. Even though they're the same size as the AT/3's they're replacing they look a lot bigger. Sent from my SM-G920V using Wander The West mobile app

OK, scratch Lokhart Basin/Hurrah Pass. Beef Basin going south will probably be doable as long as it doesn't get wet. Cathedral Valley should be accessible depending on the level of the Fremont River. Much of The Swell would be accessible as would much of GSENM. Having not rented a 4WD from a...

Fred- If you're renting a 4WD what kind of vehicle are you getting? That will influence the suggestions a bit. One option you might want to consider is to traverse south from Moab through Lockhart Basin to 211. Then you could do the Beef Basin trip. If you look at Cathedral Valley then you...

Vic- Sorry for the confusion. In this case by taking Beef Basin Rd up I meant in elevation rather than north. It does indeed run Through Elk Mountain Rd, not Elk Ridge Rd. I had forgotten about the little bit on 275 that you drive from 95 because it's a very short stretch. That's what I get...

Some great spots above The Needles in the new Bears Ears NM. Take the Beef Basin Rd. up from 211 and there is quite a bit of exploring to do. You can then exit to the south between the Ears and come out on 95 via Elk Ridge Rd. Cathedral Valley is a pretty drive and i didn't think it was...

Kootenay (Crowsnest) Pass BC. Some great skiing on both sides of the road.

Quit 17 years ago, shortly after Cayusette was born. Used to go back and forth between chewing and smoking depending on the environment, guiding rivers chewing was pretty well accepted at the time... Anyways, one of the things that helped was the SilkQuit Meter tracks numner of days and...

Looking for site recommendations for Lake Mohave or elsewhere along the Black Canyon, probably on the Nevada side though if there is something stellar on the Arizona side I'd think about it. Would like to be along the water, this will be in mid-March. TIA, Bob

I'm just as concerned about HR 622 and HJ 46. The assault on public lands continues. Whether or not we all agree on exactly how those lands should be protected with roads or roadless areas we SHOULD all be able to agree that they need to be protected and remain accessible in some way to all.

There is currently a bill in the Utah House that wants to ask Congress to reduce the size of GSENM by 50% http://le.utah.gov/~2017/bills/static/HCR012.html. It doesn't hold any power overall but this is the kind of thing that is making the outdoor industry consider moving their Outdoor Retailer...

Fixed it for you :-) Idaho uses helicopters to do some of their control. Snow science is pretty interesting stuff.

I'm also using approximately 1X AH (200W flat mount on the roof, 210AH) and am usually fully charged by early afternoon.

park- beautiful photo!

Happy with my Grandby. I do a lot of driving on the tarmac to get where I want to be, really hard to avoid that. Part of the decision will be based on what kind of truck it is going to go on. I've had my camper in the Escalante out towards Egypt, on the Burr trail and many other places and...

Didn't see a post about this anyplace so... In honor of its 150th anniversary Canada is giving out free admission to its national parks this year. The pass can be ordered from http://www.commandesparcs-parksorders.ca/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/parksb2c. Leave yourself plenty of time, I...

Roll the dice!
