    Is This My Bad?

    I have a tent with poles that I could set up and give the appearance that somebody is sleeping in the tent. Tent is a worn out backpacking tent with a broken zipper. I put it in the truck so I could place it to show site occupied. If it was stolen no great loss.

    A new tool for western trip planning - fire watch live cameras

    Thanks for the link. I have been using it for many years but just recently it appears they did a revamp on the web page and it looks pretty nice now. And yes I did get mesmerized and spent too much time looking around.

    Forum Update - We're back! Ask your questions here.

    So my question would be... In the old software you were able to be in "Trucks" and could click on the icon for like FWC and you could mark read all post within. It seems you have to be inside the directory and then mark all post read. I want to be looking at the directory list and just mark...

    WTW format

    I have been using a similar format on a forestry chainsaw forum, so it was easy for the switch. What I do like is the way to post images. It is super easy now and I don'[t have to email images from the phone to myself and down size them to post here. Last trip I had many cool images along the...

    Anybody running minimal or no power in their camper?

    Ice chest... many years ago used a Colman ice chest always buying ice. The biggest problem was when there was too much water and we were fourwheeling. The contents were totally mixed up and water soaked. Once the eggs broke up and the bread was soggy ready for French toast. We really liked it...

    Have I lost my mind?

    Sounds like a great time getting to know your camper. I will say that it is known that at some point you may have a leak up front behind the mattress. It happened to me and others. The amber running lights on the front will leak water past the seal when driving into the rain. You can take...

    Battery Voltage question

    I have thought going lithium, but the two agm have been serving our need well. With 480 watts of solar recharge has been doing well. Thought of seeing if two larger agm would fit in the space. Cost is a factor for the lithium along with needing to change out the ACR relay to DC to DC adding...

    Dead Bolt Door Lock- Schlage Replacement?

    Years back at a campground in Yellowstone one May day. We found the campground quiet and not too many people and snow on the ground. My gal and I went for a walk. There was two men working on a door of a huge older motorhome. Later we returned and the two men were still working on the door...

    Battery Voltage question

    +Craig's post... 9 years is great! Resting voltage is fine but getting it to 100 percent and have it rest then put some load on it will give you a idea. Agree that if you are questing them now, then for peace and ease of mind replacing them now when you have the time might be more pleasant...

    Battery Voltage question

    Might be. If you can bring them up to 100 percent, disconnect all loads and see what the resting voltage is. Put a load on it and see how fast the volts go down. All this is easy after you get the battery fully charged take it to a place locally to get it load tested. How old are those battery?

    Teton Pass Road Landslide

    They built it once when nothing was there. Just soil, man hours and money to make it happen. Learn as to why it failed and build it better with a larger factor of safety.
