a fearful population is easily controlled and manipulated. There was a case of a driver from VT that was pulled out of his car and attacked in Portland, apparently because he was from VT. VT is even more fearful of Covid and restrictive than Maine is. Now, the New Yorkers and Mass plates, I can...

you must be a unicorn! From Mass, knows how to use a map and compass. Mind blown. Whenever I see Mass hikers in the Whites, "I see dead people" goes through my thoughts. I know its unfair, but usually the deaths in the Whites are people from Massachusetts. Only place I foresee needing a compass...

I bought some from Amazon, it was a bit cheaper and I could buy more than one can. My GF hasn't been buying my single serve packets I llke to take hiking, so I bought 24 from Amazon. so $68 spent on Spam.

This is the pan. I love it.

I'll check and see if they are still there. The five foot long, wood and gut stringed snowshoes my grandfather used to smuggle booze over the border during prohibition are still hanging up there, so I don't know why the frypans wouldn't be, lol.

I like that idea. Maybe I can incorporate something like this: Was the BN crest for my National Guard unit back in the 80's and 90's. The unit was formed in 1917, each fleur de lis is representative of the battles the unit fought in WW1. The background is white representing the history as the...

I put a CFX3 75dz in my back seat. It fits, but takes up too much room and negates me being able to get at the stuff stored behind the seat. I'm toying with the idea of taking the seat out, but I think I'll put that off until I get my GoFastCamper next year.

There is a free bus service on MDI that ends columbus day weekend, or whatever that holiday is called now. In the Summer, its standing room only. My GF and I got a tour of MDI from one of the drivers on the last weekend a few years ago and we were the only ones on the bus. It was nice, for a...

Plan on Snow in Maine from middle of October to at least May1st. NMW is a working forest, privately owned by timber companies that allow recreational use of their property, for a fee. I've only been up there to camp once. The campsite we stayed at on Lake Umbazookus lake we shared with an older...

As someone who camps all Winter in Maine, I've never felt the need to heat a tent. 1. Eat before bed. Go to bed warm. 2. Get a good quality sleeping bag, or quilt. Manufacturers temp ratings are survival ratings, not comfort ratings. If a sleeping bag is rated for 30 degrees F, you'll be lucky...

headed through Crawford Notch a few weeks ago

I was a 31C assigned to 1/43 ADA at FT Bliss '86 to '88. That's not what WE called ADA. Its not fit for polite society

I run my fridge from the 12v plug. It won't run the battery down because the truck disconnects all power after 30 minutes. That results in other problems that are only partially resolved with a goalzero yeti 200x. It's a work in progress.

I re-measured the bed. From the bottom of the bed next to the cab, to the edge of the bed at the tailgate is 61". Unfortunately, the "headboard" of the bed is angled inward, towards the tailgate. There are structural ribs that protrude even farther into the bed. If the measurement is taken from...

2020 supercrew. By my tape measure, it's 58.5. I think 60" is a marketing rounding error. Like 965GB=1TB

I need 58.5 " to fit in my Ranger. Who decided 60" was the right size? They should be flogged about the head and shoulders! I have a Dometic CFX 75 and I would need to mount that to the passenger side so the power and display is on the side I want to open my cooler doors from. Do you plan on...

+1 Still the best burger I've ever eaten was at Caratunk B&B on the Appalachian trail. Something about hiking 150 miles adds spice to everything.

I set the freezer side to 0 and the fridge side to 35. I've found I need a bigger external battery to keep the food cool all night. 18aH isn't cutting it.

I really hate links that try to install browser extension I don't need or want

Barely a bridge, but the I-beam stringers looked ok. It was just a tad soft in a few places.
