Heck I throw over half my shots away I do get some keepers though. I went Nikon but there are so many good cameras out there now it really is more about getting out to use them That's why I'm looking at a truck and camper combo!

That's the slippery slope I started down. Got a camera and re-realized I liked it, hmmm, I need to go to more interesting places, a truck, a camper, now for the time to use them

Here's our camp at Dalton Wells on Sunday night. There was another Hallmark up the road a bit (Chevy / K2) that had an amazing view of Arches NP from their spot.

It was !

Not bad, less than 3 hours from driveway to camp fully set up. Saw less than 3 or 4 vehicles in the whole area the first 2 days. I think in a normal year this would have been a little early in the season for this area but with such a small snowpack, it was clear until we got up one of the trails a little ways at about 4600'. A lower trail we were on was littered with a lot of downed trees still, FS and volunteer groups haven't gotten out for trail work yet.

There is something totally wrong about a lifted Porche.

There is something totally wrong about a lifted Porche.

Reminds me of this Volvo XC70 concept from 2005. I heard that they showed the car awhile and then destroyed it much to the distress of many who wanted it.

Not sure of the make on this one but pretty intriguing design. I screen grabbed this off of facebook or some other random internet location as it seemed pretty classic.

Doesn't seem very practical -- too tall to fit through fast-food drive-ups.

Maybe this is a prop from the new Mad Max movie???

Nice spot 8900' elevation 2 hours from driveway to falling off fat tire bike. I thought riding a bike after not riding for 30 years would be easy. Oh no falling down is easy, riding bike over uneven terrain is not. I also realized how fast you get out of shape.

Bill - this Porsche belongs to a friend's brother. He says, "it's a 1965, with the 3L motor from about 1978. 2-3 barrel carbs. Long wheel base kit, roll cage, mud tires...was converted to off road in the mid-80's by a local Porsche shop owner."


I showed him this pic not knowing it was his brother, and he asked where I got it from...and I didn't remember the thread (or even which forum) and couldn't find the link! Glad I stumbled back onto it!

If you liked the Porsche. How about a Studebaker?

Death Valley 2014 Talc Mine at Warm Springs.

I love to see rigs like this one. This is literally out-of-the-box thinking, isn't it?

It's on the Norfolk (VA) craigslist today... http://norfolk.craigslist.org/rvs/5060097537.html
(pics look better there but the ad may go down at any time)

Toyota 4-wheel drive pick up/camper conversion. Carry-All weekdays. Getta-Way weekends. Used mostly for mountain camping but would make an excellent surfer vehicle. The cap is from a seventies model full-size Chevy Blazer, which adds considerable room when sleeping inside. Very securely attached with 2x6 timbers and 5/8ths bolts through the bed frame. "Wings" of cedar shingle fold down on both sides for tables and work bench. Legendary R-22 four cylinder engine. Mileage is about 200,000, but runs like new--I'd estimate at least another 100,000 miles with minimal maintenance. Trailer hitch. A/C works great. Radio, too. $3850 OBO

My Palomino makes a surprise appearance in the Reno newspaper. Just finished a week of photography and support for a group of hikers bringing attention to the migration/connection corridor between the Hart Mtn and Charles Sheldon Wildlife Refuges. We had a journalist from the Reno paper for the first day of the hike.

Hopefully this link gets you to the article in their outdoors section.
