    Researching used

    I am currently researching the used popup market. Have been for about 2 weeks now and have a couple of questions. :lol: I think more like 400 questions! I have a 98 Grandby on a 99 F250. I don't know if a pop up is the thing for you considering your use, a hardside just has to be a better...

    FWC Motorcycle hunter

    Another nice looking bike you found there. I was suckered in by how clean is seems. It is a 91, I think it has 600 miles on it! @ 200 #'s it will be easy to tote around.

    FWC Motorcycle hunter

    My FWC has become my tool for running off and buying mototcycles I don't really need :) . My last was a 76 Suzuki 750 I ran to Oklahoma for, I'll turn a profit on that one, which I quickly spent on this one, head out tomorrow for it, was going that way anyway. This is a 91, nice and clean...

    Use That Surplus Furnace Heat

    :lol: It does spit out quite a few BTU's! I used to stick stuff by the outlet until I ripped it out and put in a Wave. Good energy use.

    Heading Northeast, Labrador

    If you are in Thompson Falls around noonish stop by the Little Bear for lunch and/or ice cream. Good slow food. South side of the street on the east end of the main part of town. Going to the Sun in Glacier due to open 7-13. Thanks for the gastronomic tip! My plans from Thompson Falls are...

    Pop-Up Campers and "Critters"

    A magpie had came in and was perched on the counter pecking at the egg shells I left in the sink from cooking dinner. I was able to shoo it out with a towel. It wasn't easily motivated to leave. :lol: Magpies are cool birds, smart! I guess there are close relatives of Ravens. My dogs still...

    Pop-Up Campers and "Critters"

    I was out on the Outer Mountain Loop in Big Bend, just a tarp and some Gorp, and the little buggers must have been hungry. Waking up in the middle of the night with them chowing on my grub. Stuck it in my bag and they still wanted to get it to it :lol:

    Charging house battery

    Solar can be pretty simple and you get some charging even with clouds. A simple 7amp charge controller is good for 105 watts of solar and costs about $20 on Amazon. A 60w panel for $160...

    Idaho and Montana July 2011

    I'll be at Thompson Falls the 21st and 22nd and then heading South to Riggins ID. and Hell's Canyon on the 23rd. Don't know if paths will cross, I'm always looking out for FWC's and all pop up truck campers.

    Today's news! YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Wyo. — A man out on a hike with his wife in Yellowstone National Park's backcountry was killed by a female grizzly bear after the couple apparently surprised the bear and its cubs Wednesday, park officials said. The attack was the first fatal bear...

    Hell's Canyon, then NV, Ruby Mtns?

    Cool, Google Earth has some good shots of the area. This trip wasn't what I was planning but is sounding pretty good. Hell's Canyon and the Ruby areas are new too me and look great. They call Hwy 50 the loneliest road so what do you call the road that runs South from Ruby to Ely?? Must be...

    Hell's Canyon, then NV, Ruby Mtns?

    Hi Barko - We just returned from the maritimes (New Brunswick, PEI and Nova Scotia), great area. Regarding the Ruby Mts., if you have never been there, they are not to be missed . . . . awesome!! If you have been there you know what I mean. Have a great trip! - Richard Last year did...

    San Juan Mountains

    I 2 amp charged them all night and still low this am, increased to a 10 amp charge. I have a hydrometer, may check them. I suspect a bad battery might be making the charge controller goofy as well??? When I added the battery I just used one that I had for a trolling motor and the other was...

    Hell's Canyon, then NV, Ruby Mtns?

    My trip to the Maritimes is delayed but I still am making a run to Thompson Falls Montana and looking at the map it seems like Hell's Canyon, ID would be a good area to explore on the way back from there. Maybe like some good spots from Riggins but I have never been in that area. After that I...

    Happy Independence Day

    There will be fireworks tonight, of course! Happy birthday USA! I was somewhat pleasantly surprised by how few fireworks were blasted near here. Legally they couldn't be totally banned although it is obvious that use could lead to a disaster here. I enjoy fireworks but after the fires we...

    Pop-Up Campers and "Critters"

    During my May Utah trip, while I was camped in Capitol Reef N.P. a mouse came in my open turnbuckle-access sliding-port. And??? Did it become part of the stew or do you now have Hanta Virus?

    Bags Or Springs

    don't mess around with the bags...save yourself the trouble and just get the springs. National or Deaver or others can hook you up just fine. Nothing to break or inflate. I guess I should admit I still do have my bags but I only use them for load leveling and ride perfection but they are...
