you go girl, good on ya for following your muse, dreams and hopes. Sure to meet up again sometime on yonder mesa.

Good post Phil. I went to ca. doj site to see what kind of pistols are legal, and couldn't make heads or tales of it. x2 for pelican cases bolted or cabled to hard to remove steel. Only thing I feel safe entering ca. with, securely locked in locked area, are bolt or lever action rifles, and...

Yes indeed Welcome Pikabike. Though I am not very active here, it is indeed a wonderful site. Great folks, great-widespread info on how to enjoy the outdoors. I keep trying to spread my wings to the intermountain west. Getting the Shoshone lake / yellowstone area trip planned for july. Looking...

Sea kayaking has been " Our thing" for the last ten years. Started with a Pygmy than tried a easy rider. Now settled on sterling ice cap and illusion. Wife likes her ndk Romany. We enjoyed north and west coast Vancouver island, like the broughtons also. Nice to wheel on the Alaska ferry and...

" limiting off road abilities" For me this goes to the question or adage, "how much or how little do you want to push the rig you have to get home in"? I wanted 4 wheel for sand or snow, and to get off the county road a bit. But I have to get back out too, and frequently travel with no other...

I hoped to try an oru last fall, but couldn't find anybody or any store in the seattle area that carried the 16". I called and emailed them and they basically said, I had to buy one direct or come to the bay area. They look like a great idea, so may yet have to go down there and try one. Or I...

I have the same annoying "sway". Was hoping the airbags would cut it out. They help, but going over a bump or swale, can sure feel it. Maybe i'll have to try the stable loads or different shocks

no problems or notice any difference in ride. Driven about 3000 miles in last 4 weeks, from 0 feet elevation, to 10000 colorado passes.

Very nice Lighthawk! very nice. Also look forward to following your build. I am have a few regrets/second thoughts going with the silverado/northstar instead of the mercedes. Especially with the non functioning top on the northstar and zero customer service. Happyjac: we just saw a 2 wheel drive...

Hey Steve and Sage: We passed thru a week or two ago after the v.o.g. rally. There were a dozen trucks and boat trailers parked just west of the dirty devil, in a big boat launch parking lot. Looked like a fine place to leave a rig to us. Cant compare it to hite, as we didnt bother to drive down...

Right on Marc. Super efficient and well laid out rig. Sent from my iPhone using Wander The West

Seems like ideal rig. Better ground clearance than class b and 4x. No soft side to put up and down. Pass thru to truck Sent from my iPhone using Wander The West

thanks Sage. That is a great one all the way around, and from all angles

Glacier area sounds good. A non - crowed spot might be tough, but doable. Wonderful baked goods always a bonus!!

Hi folks. We are w.t.w outside of Chaco canyon after the valley of the gods gathering. Been having problems raising the north stars roof for a week now, getting no help from north star inc. We need to find a good rv dealer who works on palominos ( they use the same motors n.s. Does.,, choke,,)...

Great folks. Great food. Great views. Thanks to hoyden and cayuse for all the work planning and arranging. Sent from my iPhone using Wander The West

All the best riding it out Clikerf8. Hope to meet you on the next one. Finally out of the rain here, between s.l.c. and capital reef. Hard to decide what to see in time allowed, with so much to see. But heading up to fish lake tomorrow, capital reef Tuesday/ Wednesday, than v.o.g. Thursday...

Early w.t.w.ers from the Utah state capital dome! Sent from my iPhone using Wander The West

Definitely get one! Beautiful trailer, looks a bit like the old classic buses in Glacier

North Cascades should be pretty color now with the vine and big leaf maples! We are going to high ball to Salt lake on 84, {going thru Seattle at 3 in the morning}, than put the brakes on. and mosey south thru Capitol reef and Canyonlands from about the 15th to the 19th. Vog about the 20th. No...

I went thru the same process picking my chev 2500 hd a year ago. Just wanted a white wt, but didn't like the 4x shifter on the floor, and wanted a CD player. Just those 2 options kicked it up to the next level, an " lt " I believe. Both lt and wt can come with all different options and layouts...

Thanks for chasing that down Cayuse. We'all pickup some wood too. S.w./ mex potluck sounds great. Bosque, we're up for anything. After driving out Saturday might be nice to not move the rig/setup and hike sun. Our truck is only a 2 seater.

No reason it wouldn't work. Use, maybe, 1"plastic hose with a valve and or connector on each end, to drain or hook up to camper when loading on to truck. May have to use some kind of flexible water bag to get up into the space. Just gave me an idea how to get my blocks up in there. Was trying...

I freed up almost all my back seat storage by moving stuff there . And up under all the space on the Silverado , between the inner and outer wall of the pickup bed. I used some old kayaking dry bags to put tools, air compressor, recovery gear,etc ,etc inside the pickup bed. ( we' ll see how...

Appreciate your great words and pictures Frank. Amazing variety of critters you saw in Denali. That's it,! we're going to take the summer of '18, to drive up and back.
