This trial is on my bucket list. Thanks for sharing your adventure on it.

The last week of July I could probably meet up someplace, but the first 3/4 of the month I have testing at work and can't get free. Late July is the perfect time to explore the Ouray area.

Any chance you guys will have some extra parts on hand at the Expo? I'd love to pick up another 12V cord.

What time frame are you going to be out here? And welcome to OB from another newbie to the site.

There is not much likely to be open in the Ouray area this early in the year. There was not as much snow fall as normal this past winter, so a few trails are opening already though. Check out Switzerland of America's site for the most up to date trail info for Ouray. If you SLC is just the...

Competition is always good. A companion app on a phone or tablet will be needed to really compete with inReach however. Being able to use the phone/tablet to not only text but also to leverage their larger screen for map/nav purposes is a huge plus to the inReach. The Spot X pricing is much...

I'm a canon guy and the setup below is one of the best you can have for astrophotography: Canon 6D Rokinon 24mm f1.4 Follow those links for an indepth review for each of them in regards to Milky Way photos. The site they are on has tons and tons of good info on shooting the MW as well as...

I've already got one of your CFX50s and am pretty happy with it. Good luck at the Expo.

Comanche National Grassland, south of La Junta, has some pretty dark skies for astrophotoraphy. Not much else out there... well, some dinosaur tracks if you are interested in that sort of thing. Its a long way for the mountains though.

Well, thanks for the update.

Yeah, I'm sure there will be too much snow for that. My mom has a place there in Westcliffe, so I've gone up Hermit a couple of times. There are a few places to camp going up, but nothing really close to the lake that I recall.

So you are looking for areas along the Front Range? North or South?

Cool, thanks. I need to set aside some time watch your videos at home. Work blocks YouTube and my internet at home is stupid slow :(

Did you ever get your ZR2?

How is the ZR2 doing?

Death Valley would be hard to beat. We just finished a week out there, you can see and read about in my trip report if you like. The Mojave Road would also be a great trip, it's on my list as well.

I use the inReach paired with my Android phone. A tablet is on the wish list, but not at the top as of yet.

Don't use magnets. As Arailt said, sand/dirt will work its way under it and scratch the paint even worse. You could buy vinyl in bulk and cover the sides of your rig in that each time you go out. The cost of both time and money would add up though. Ultimately, what are you saving your paint...

It would really help to know what area you are looking at.

I'll try and set some time aside to watch this at home.
