A buddy & I were camped out @ Teddy Roosevelt NP. The next morning I woke up and looked over at my friends tent, only to see a large bison sniffing his tent. Thankfully, he didn’t like what he smelled and left.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

With a year to travel, it would be a shame if they didn’t hit both coasts and the middle.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

One thing to keep in mind since you have a year, many of the places are different experiences depending on the season. Yosemite seems like four different parks, depending on the season. Alaska & the Canadian Rockies should be experienced in at least two different seasons as well. You may also...

Dog hair does get everywhere. I use an Orvis dog pad for the rear seat where my Bella used to love. I have a waterproof seat cover on the front passenger seat as well, but she never liked it much, as she’d much rather roam around in back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s going to be cold, but I’ll look for you, backside of BBT bank parking lot? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Decades ago, I took my 2WD 91 Chevy Blazer S10 deeper off road than many 4x4s venture. Don’t be afraid to take the 2WD off-road to explore, just be smart. Don’t go alone if you’re uncertain about the trucks ability, and some basic recovery gear is a must. If you have friends w/ winches, recovery...

Probably not cheaper initially, especially if you go the lithium route, but that’s definitely the better route from an overall perspective, ie, more portable, no noise, etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’d also coat the insides, especially if they’re not sealed box/tubes. Waxoyl/fluid film or something similar is good for this. My sliders are galvy coated, then painted. As such, it’s susceptible to paint chipping and monitoring gouges in the galvy coating is necessary. As sailor96...

LOL, np, ya’ll we’re out there early. I had to warm up inside of Katie’s. BTW, the Angry Pumpkin Defender is for sale Didn’t even notice my friend’s rig parked next to it, even w/ the Union Jack spread across the windscreen. Amazed by how many MD people braved the early subzero temps for C&C...

Turnout may be lighter due to cold. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Should be a good turnout tomorrow, as the weather should be good compared to the last two weeks. Did we ever establish a rendezvous? The parking lot @ the BBT bank branch is walking distance to Katie’s Coffee Shop. Another option might be to reply to this thread when you arrive? Sent from my...

Kent-I’m so sorry for your loss, I know what you’re going through. I’m glad to hear you’re ready to rescue another. Our fur babies live on in our hearts and memories, and sometimes seem to appear again in another fur baby. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
