Steve, thanks for the invite to 'What do I REALLY need??'
Had to leave the conf call early and left a sign-off msg in the chat.
Good that we were able to reconnect again - also hoping for COVID travel restrictions to be relaxed soon.
The Northwest Region group gave a lot of good information...
Steve, We are looking forward to calling in and catching up!
Mentioned your name and DSR immediately said Lolo! Still talk of the trip. Do not know if we passed on that a ranger recognised us in Winchester ID. He mentioned that several days behind our group a fellow did it in a Model T. Biggest...
Competed in our second winter endurance rally north of the Arctic Circle. This years route was 5120 miles one way. We shipped 'Otis' back to Seattle from Anchorage this past March. Those with Jeeps might know of some of the competitors - Mel Wade of EVO, Ray Currie of Currie Enterprises, Dave...
The Dodge Cummins parked next to us snapped their serpentine belt. Plug-ins were not available this -36F night and we none of us wanted to keep our engines running.

Had a Miti Montero, now this. Have done several BDR routes, SW Vancouver Island, Big Bend, Magruder Corridor & Lolo Hwy - etc
Also do off-road endurance rally like the ALCAN 5000 Rally - 5500 miles in winter going north of the Arctic Circle to Coldfoot. Only got down to -36F. ALCAN video at...
Expanding on why we selected Stihl MSA 200 C-BQ with 14" bar and Lithium-Ion battery.
Our rig is a diesel - did not want to carry petrol just for the saw.
Living in the Northwest with a large timber industry asked around for favorite brands. While many mentioned Stihl topped the others from...
We decided on a Stihl MSA 200 C-BQ with 14" bar and Lithium-Ion battery.
Had a fair sized tree blow down this winter. Battery life worked well as after cutting, then stacking & clean-up got quite a lot of work done on a charge.
As the bar is very easy to remove w/o tools looking to store the...
We plan to be there as early as possible Thursday. Need to do a pre-run for Friday's Sugarloaf Mtn trail ride. Renting a Basecamp Adventure trailer to see if we like this way to travel. We usually tent camp.

We have spent quite a bit of time in the Big Bend. Looking forward to getting back there. There are several articles at the link from our last trip to the 'Great State'

Driving a diesel I do not want to carry a can of gasoline just for the saw. Also, would be limited to cutting by the amount of gas on hand. Looking into battery powered saws - with extra batteries and an inverter to re-charge them. Thinking this would be a lot cleaner, safer way to go...
Are y'all coming to the Northwest Overland Rally next weekend - this will be our fourth year - would be nice to have another Cayenne join the fun: http://www.nwoverlandrally.com/
