When we camp with a large group, we find a secluded place for one large and deep latrine hole. Just fill in a shovel of dirt when you've finished your business. For privacy, tie a bandana on a bush to show the latrine is occupied.

Thanks for another dose of your good medicine.

Thanks for the very enjoyable trip report!

There's a nice article in Truck Camper Magazine about clickrf8 http://www.truckcampermagazine.com/camper-lifestyle/pop-up-rocks-to-the-blues

Dang, Richard. The bike racks may help to ID it if they try to sell it. Even if they remove them, there should still be marks left. I hope it gets found and the thief caught!

And our local weather guy just informed us that the next three months are expected to be colder and wetter than normal. Yes! Let's hope that means a good snowpack for the Sacramento Mts. The remnants of Odile have stuck around and it's been warm and wet for the last week. It hasn't felt like...

Can't beat that. Nice trip report, as always. Sorry it ended with the sight of smoke near home. That's an uncomfortable feeling.

Yes! Milt is back with more Goodness!

Yes, I use broadcastify for my area as well.

Thanks for the trip report! I always enjoy reading about your travels. That's some nice country (except for the poison ivy).

Welcome to the forum, bigbluemountain, and congrats on ordering your ATC! There are some threads on steps if you search around on the forum. I guess what steps you will like will depend on your particular needs. I have collapsible aluminum scissor steps and like them, because my dog can use...

Hope you are able to finish up the house sale soon so you can enjoy Washington together. Look forward to more trip reports!

Since we currently can't construct a collider with the kind of energy needed and it's a possible (not certain) outcome, I'll relax. . If our Universe really is a metastable (local minimum) vacuum, why haven't natural high-energy events like very energetic cosmic rays already caused a vacuum...

Starting to drop into the 40's at night in the Sacramento Mts., too. But the sure sign that autumn is approaching is the Huntsman spiders are starting to move indoors. Mice will be next.

WeatherBug shows lightning proximity.

If anyone ever does get told they can't camp at a certain site in a pop-up, please ask if it would make a difference if you just keep the top down at night. I'm curious as to what the rule-enforcers would say about that... Agree with all the above comments. The only thing I can add is that when...

After having hiked a little through Europe over the years, I appreciate the wonderful American Wilderness even more. One of our Greatest Ideas. Happy 50th, Wilderness! And you can buy some anniversary swag from New Mexico Wilderness Alliance. The hats are $20, but you can be sure the extra goes...

Awesome, CraggyMan. Would love to see more when you have the time.

It's still a long drive, but I think the CO dealer does some repair work. Don't know about the WY dealer. Might be worth calling them to find out.

Enjoyed the trip report. Good that you were able to find some quiet places on a holiday weekend.

Whatever it was made of, it was flammable. I saw it smoldering this morning on the ustream feed.

Welcome, betacat. Best of luck getting your rig when the time is right. Ski3pin does a great service to the community by posting the Craigslist sales. You may have already read that when you are ready to buy have your money in hand and be prepared to jump, because the good deals go within hours...

There's just a little wire that sticks out the edge of the folding panels. The connectors I used aren't very bulky and are taped to the back of the lift panels. I haven't noticed any stress on the lift panels or hinge, but I'll take a closer look and report back if I see anything to worry about.

Don't cave in, Ski! Sounds more like "peer-pressure review" to me :P But I'm liking both the article and the banter. And I'm wondering if simimike has been out my way lately shaving coyotes and calling in Chupacabra stories to the news outlets?

Thanks for the trip report, Craig. I enjoyed the read about an area I know little about. Glad you got to get away for a bit.
