Boy, we seem to be having a weather change over here on the east side -was hot last week, but they say rain and cool this week.-but also windy with red flag warning fire alerts! I just spent $1200 for the super tune up on my old truck and she is ready to roll. Heading out of Susanville and...

Me Too! Still plan to head south on Monday or Tuesday-unless go North to the Steens (old friend never been there and wants to see them)! Ted, the meat bees are out and about in force in the Lassen area, but the trees are coloring up! Didn't hear any wolves when I was out and about last week...

Happy-wedding anniversary guys-hope you have many more of them while you are out and about :P ! Smoke

It took me three times before it would let me in here to describe what happened to my post in the thread above-help Smoke

Hey-what happened to my post-it seems to have self edited or something-help!! Smoke

Just got back for what was supposed to be a quick trip to Crater Lake (the one in Lassen County north of Lassen Park-Butte Lake side) for a quick equipment check (truck makeover), then either the coast or south on 395. I had heard that there was no one there and it would be a good place for Bob...

Ya-another wallet guy here, always have a spare key(s) there! In addition, and I know i should not do it, but I have a spare keys stashed in various drawers, storage spaces and glove boxes in my rig and pop-up <_< Speaking of keys, one of my advises to any new pop-up owners is go buy some more...

Waiting!!! Smoke

Had the same pain too; luckily, I had down loaded a bunch of the data for allot of places I go into the old garmin. By the way have you bought your new printer yet so you can print using your Windows 10! Oh and you can buy a whole new set of discs to work in your new garmin, that may work in...

Your back-just in time to lighten up the day, but don't drink the water there-no mater what they say! Sure covered allot of ground on this one, but looked like a good enjoyable trip! Smoke

What do they say "shot" or "stabbed"!!!! Foy, you should be out here looking at neat rock formations in some place like the Smoke Creek Desert instead of waiting for a wall of water to hit!. In any event, the weather here is turning into a year round fire season-even when we do have a decent...

Wow-you guys be safe! All we got to worry about here. is high winds, above ave. heat, smoke and more fires and none -zero- zap-possibility of rain! Seems like Mother Nature is pissed at us this Fall! Smoke

Interesting trip-despite the people Craig! You are probably lucky Rielly didn't try to head up and investigate that coyote, those critters like to set up ambushes for nice fat civilized doggies. Years ago I was working in a canyon north of Susanville with my dog Wolfer (a former stray and one...

Boy got me again too! I also tried to post in reply on "advise needed" on the pop-up forum! Took me a while to do it-sort of put me in to "editor "or something, then posted and sent me that red not allowed to post. Eventually got it in! Smoke

Ya know, I'm of two minds on this! The time I spent before retirement and the time I spent after retirement. I spent a good part of my life working (BLM) and playing in the back country. I did lot's of hiking, walking, tent and truck camping back packing for that first part of my life and...

Sort of blew a planned trip for me-but got more irons in the fire-lot's of places to go! Smoke

Hey, Thanks Mark for the web site-just need to buy a sail boat now :huh: ! Boy the weather is strange here now! Less smoke, more clear days with warm nights and days above normal (high 80's low 90's). But a new fire near 120/395 junction just blocked a proposed trip down south. Wonder if...

Boy this site is fighting me today. Would not let me sign in, then could find Milt's and a few others pages. Got in but took several tries! Must be the smoke! Smoke

Good and interesting trip, know all about old truck problems, just spent $1200 to get A/C fixed-need it with all the smoke! Where to next? Smoke

Yep-burners out in force up here, wind is raising hell with some of their events. Smoke is starting to clear up here, but will spend the holiday stacking wood and doing yard work-then mid week take a trip somewhere when they all leave (ain't retirement grand- :P )!!! Smoke

Ya know, on your way down or back and if the smoke clears, you might check out Res "C" on the lava bench on the Modoc NF. It is known for it's great night shots of the sky and no nasty city lights. Easy access from 139 or 395 has a prim cg and not many people 'cept day fisherman. I camp...

Nice photos of more places I've never been-thanks! Smoke

Fire weather here again-lot's of wind and no rain! It would be nice if I could SEE any weather change here in the former warm and sunny high desert-to dang much very smelly smoke!! I think I can feel a little heat mid morning (after I turn off the heater-yes I turn the heater on when I get up...

Wow, bet that would be fun driving up to the Steens overlook (maybe overland) :D ! Smoke

Vic, while I'm still partial to Fall on my beloved eastern side of Sierra/Cascades interface with the NW Great Basin, I will never ever forget the Fall I spent as a young soldier at Fort Devins, Mass. If you want reds, yellows, and vivid fall colors, yep, New England is the place to be and...
