Yes trouble can find you down there, but my experience in 2017 was great. I have also flown down to cabo a few times, and no problems. That being said, i can understand folks being more comfortable in a group. w

We are planning on a 3-4 week baja Feb trip. Have several ideas if anyone wants to meet up. w

The Rig(s) look great! I just looked out at mine and realized how badly i need to do mine. Yikes! w

Hi, If you want to go the hitchgate route, let me know. I have one that just sits around my garage. w

I spend most of the year north of west yellowstone, if you guys are coming this way let me know. I can give you my cell. Might have some spots for you guys to check out.

I drive bigger/heavier trucks, but the all around best 1 tire i have found for all conditions is the cooper st maxx. I have them siped and they work well enough in snow, ice, mud, sand and rock. Not the best at anything by no means, but the best all around. I have a hard time getting them in...

Vic, Could you send me a pm?

Great Trip/Report! Love that area, was there in late April and will have a couple of days free down there in Oct. Thanks for sharing.

Maybe a bit different setup, mine is bolted to my flatbed. Has been off the truck twice in 5 years. Mostly i just un-bolt it, put big pins in the holes to help with realignment and raise it a few inches to inspect and air out. w

So, need to bump this again, anyone on here looking for a wilco hitchgate, mine is the offset model. Kicked it again unloading yesterday. New around 1500.00 will sell for 500.00 Need it gone, my toes are killing me. w

Casa, i know that there was a recent meeting in cooke city discussing keeping chief joseph open all year. A friend lives there and says it has been an ongoing battle for years. The closed stretch in the winter is about 8 miles, and runs through some serious avalanche terrain. i suspect that it...

Being so close, (40 milesish) from west, and a nice drive to the north entrance, this is pretty disheartening. Was planning a trip throught gardner, through the lamar valley, beartooth pass, hellroaring and back down chief joseph to cody this weekend. Nope. I personally know a lot of people that...

Crazy, i live in Big Sky and we have had rock/land slides. High water in Gallatin Canyon, bridges out in Paradise Valley and now all entrances closed. Plus, still raining and a winter storm watch for tonight. Nuts.

Hi Murban, I was in your shoes up until a month ago. The advice stated here is solid. Vic is an amazingly helpful guy. i was not wanting to do the work that i needed. KP, another member owns a company in Reno. I reached out to him, had my entire system redone and could not be more pleased. I...

I always carry two full size spares. Had a trip ruined once, only carrying one spare. No proper air compressor, no patch/plug kit etc. Fast forward to my 2019 trip on the dempster and to dead horse. Brand new, f rated tire speared by a four inch rock. Will try to find the phone that has the...

I have been to the store in Oregon, and have purchased online. I find them to be first rate and good to deal with.

Hi, Welcome to one of the best rabbit holes on the internet! ATC are awesome to work with, great guys. The weight will add up quick, a good friend was in a similar situation with his taco. They settled on a compromise between a shell and full build out. I always say upgrade springs/suspension...

I have a solar setup, 320 watts, and two agms, Batteries being replaced with two lithiums in may. As well as some upgraded hardware. I also have two portable batteries that in the past have powered the second fridge, or portable electronics. Once i go lithium, i will only carry the portable for...

Hard to say without knowing what you like to do. We did it in 2019, and if i were to go back i would take 5-7 days. I would want to travel slower, and spend more time exploring the area. Because of weather, and the fact that a week earlier we had driven to TUK, we pushed a fair bit. Overall, i...

Have a great trip.

Congrats, Welcome to the ATC family.

Have wanted another Jeep since i sold mine in '90. Not sure what i will do with it build wise. Thinking that it will be used more for day trips and quick over-nighters. Mainly, to be used where the bigger rig doesn't fit.

Try to minimize trash, we do have a trasaroo, mostly for coastal areas and the desert for recyclables. Don't like to smell the beer/wine soup after a few days. Trash goes into (usually) grocery bags, then these into a contractor bag. I would say i use our t-roo about half of our trips.

goinoregon, PM sent, don't want to hijack thread further. Occidental, loved this. Many memories. I am pretty sure we stayed on the same beach, south of Loretto. Beautiful. Going to be a long wait.

Don't know why i didn't mention this, but i am flying to Cabo tomorrow. Tequilla and the sea for a week. Would prefer to drive again though. Trying to get a few folks to join us (loosely) next time.
