Yikes! Glad it wasn't worse. Yeah, I vote for old and not bold, too.

Frank, yes I found (and posted) those moths last year, too. Thanks. WS, I like it: Montana Seasoning it is. Thanks. Rico, Thanks, it is a beautiful area. Glad you enjoyed the report.

There is an old saying in our family “Better late than never.” I believe this applies here. There is a new adventure posted on Bosque Bill's Backroads travel & camping blog. This was a short trip and is only a single post. I hope you enjoy it. Lagunitas, Carson National Forest, NM - June 2024...

I have a smaller truck, a Tacoma, but Bilsteins made a big improvement in body stability, though my issue was more with rocking than rolling. I also have E-rated tires with pressure set for the load (determined using CAT scales.)

I bought a 2013 Fleet new and ordered it with the roof solar plug (but not the rear and no factory solar panels.) The wires looked similar to yours, but can't check as several years later I installed my own solar system and my memory is not perfect. Those were the only extra wires in the...

Wandering Sagebrush, AWG_Pics, and Occidental: thanks for reading my post and taking the time to comment here.

It’s taken me more than a month to get it together, but here is a new adventure posted on Bosque Bill's Backroads travel & camping blog. It’s in three parts to make it a bit more manageable and there are even more photos than usual. I hope you enjoy reading and looking! Part 1 - Cedar Mesa...

Yeah, sounds like it's not priming. Don't run the pump too long at one go lest it overheat. This happened to me semi-regularly years ago and just kept trying until it worked. You might try filling your water tank to the absolute max so the pump doesn't have to work as hard. Also, always open...

I never found the old search to work that well for me. I generally used that big search engine and added "site:wanderthewest.com" to the search terms. Not the answer you were looking for, I realize.

I've been running the Bilstein 5100s for a bit over 10 years on my 2013 Tacoma. It is unlifted and stock. I gather that series won't fit on your '93, but it's a vote for the brand, nonetheless.

Apparently the options for automatically following the content I create didn't transfer over to the new software. You have to go to Your Account/Settings/Preferences/Content Options to set how you want to handle follows or what I guess is now called "watch." A small surprise, but I can handle...

Thanks to the support team for quickly getting back to me with the info to allow me to log back into the forum. I didn't understand the difference between "hidden username" and "display name"—though it makes sense in retrospect. Also a bit of operator error when I tried to use the wrong email...

There is a new adventure posted on Bosque Bill's Backroads travel & camping blog. I took my first camping trip of the season earlier this month—just a short one, to Cosmic Campground in New Mexico, a new location for me with lots of wildflowers. Of course, I’ve included lots of photos of those...

Agreed. Very cool. I did look up the Barrier fabric you used and Seattle Fabrics does say that it uses a "breathable film", so hopefully that will help with moisture issues. I like your concept of having the original windows velcro to your new liner. This is a project I keep thinking I should...

I applied white gaffer tape to the inside as a temporary patch... many years ago. Still holding up and showing no wear.

Rob, ski, Vic, Taku, Frank, Occidental, AWG, Sagebrush, JWL, Thanks for taking the time to comment. Bill

Free, Frank, ski, Ronin, Taku, Thanks for your generous comments. Bill

I included this note at the end of my last trip report, but realize you might not have seen that. This little story presents the problem and the solution. Maybe it will help you sometime. As cold as it was Monday morning I thought it prudent to check the level in my active propane tank as I...

The final chapter in my October adventure is ready for your reading pleasure. Autumn in Dolores Canyon, Colorado - Bosque Bill's Backroads travel & camping blog. https://bosquebill.blogspot.com/2023/11/autumn-in-dolores-canyon-colorado.html Remember, click on any photo for a larger version.

JWL, Sagebrush, AWG, Occidentalist, Frank, Taku, Vic, and Ski, Thanks for taking the time to leave such nice comments. Bill

Oops, I did it again. In my last trip report I claimed to have split my last trip into two parts. Well, I’m now splitting the last part in two. I promise there will only be three parts now to the trip report. The last part, coming soon, will cover Dolores Canyon in Colorado. Autumn in the...

Taku, ski, oregon, JWL, and Smoke, thanks for taking the time to comment. Cabresto Lake is certainly more convenient to get to than all the way in to the top of Rio Chiquito if you're time limited. Bill

My thanks to ski, Sagebrush, AWG, Frank, JWL, dr, Oregon, and Occidental for your comments. I appreciate learning your thoughts and reactions. ​I've processed the photos from the rest of the trip and written the rough draft. Hopefully I'll get that published real soon. Bill

I’ve decided to once again split my last trip into two separate posts as they are so different. This post concentrates on the eclipse and my time leading up to the event. My next post will cover my journey through the Abajo Mountains of Utah and Dolores Canyon of Colorado. This portion will...

Thanks: Wandering, Frank, and Vic. Glad you enjoyed the post. I appreciate your comments. Bill
