Just got back from Sequoia and King's Canyon. Now THAT is an area that blends national park, forest, monument, state, and God knows what else land. One second you think youbare in a national park, the next you are on a dirt road heading through a gate into an area that looks like you might be...
This seems as good a place to ask as any.
I have an OME lift kit and UCA's for an '07 FJ that need installing, but I just don't have the space to lift the truck high enough in my garage to do the job. Can anyone recommend a trustworthy shop in the San diego area?
If it is the overlanding...
Everything I have been to josbua tree at least one day has been ruined by wind. There just isn't any shelter from it on trails. You might get lucky with a sheltered camp site in Indian cove.
If it is warm enough it might not be so bad, but when it is in the 50's or less, it pretty much just sucks.
I think a big part of the problem is the' "Just get out there and do it!" attitude.
Being outdoors in wild and sensitive areas is not something that you just do without a whole bunch of knowledge and understanding first. Campgrounds where the rangers are tasked with cleaning up after people and...
There should be a bounty system.
Take pictures of people in these camps and provide to managing agency. If they don't clean up after themselves, they end up fined and banned from public lands. The person that turned them in gets half the fine.
There is zero excuse for the fools acting like...
And by source locally, they don't mean to strip desert washes bare of downed wood that took decades or centuries to accumulate so that you can have a fire for an hour.
LNT still applies despite what youtubers trying to show off chainsaws and feel cool on camera would have you believe.
I ordered two tan and two drab to have some for travel, some for prep.
They sent three tan and only one drab. When I sent an email to see what I needed to do they just decided to send another green one and told me to do whatever I wanted with the fifth (third tan) water can.
Not a bad deal.
Correct.
And I brought up LNT for perspective on why it is not only you that deals with the consequences of inadequate preparation. LNT is not about the individual, it is.about everyone that comes after.
A bear learning that jeeps have easy food in them is a danger to the bear, and everyone...
Running 285/70 r17 in E rating on an FJC, and I am very satisfied with on and offroad performance so far. I did not take much of a gas milage hit if any going from Goodyear mud terrains in 265/70 r17 to the KO2 and full budbuilt skids. Still doing 20-22 mpg regularly save for short trips with...
I am not treating anyone like an idiot. I was simply pointing out that people leaving regular coolers under soft tops are not doing their due diligence in regards to LNT. If people were not saying that sort of behavior is acceptable and laughing about it, nothing would have needed to have been...
The solution is to use bear proof containers or appropriate hanging techniques as dictated by whatever agency has authority over the land being used. I don't know of any fridges that are bear proof, so the solution is a bearproof cooler.
Apologies for not spelling it out more thoroughly...
One thing that many seem to be disregarding is LNT.
Just putting food in non-bear proof containers and hoping nothing happens is irresponsible and disregarding LNT principles. If a bear gets your cooler, you have failed in upholding the basic tenants of LNT.
Anything worth doing is worth doing...
