    The Perfect Up North Property

    We built our place 18 yrs ago. We were always going up the north shore to camp in the summer and to sled in the winter. Luckily we could do most of the work ourselves but it was a lot of driving. Heading out every friday night with the camper hooked up and two kids under 5. My wifes job was to...

    Colorado springs

    Many years ago my wife and I made a huge circle of CO on our bike. I think we hit about every major pass. We even rented a jeep in Silverton and went up thru some of the real high passes, 13000+'. First I can't believe they let any idiot who shows up just take a jeep and do that and second, if...

    And I love the people that say when you're asking $1000 for something "will you take $500 cash?" No, but I'll take $800 in pebbles. What the heck do people think they are going to pay with?

    Its so hard to sort out the scammers who are misrepresenting what they are selling. My wife and I are looking for a 5th wheel so I'm watching multiple FB sites. And then I see our old camper up for sale, the one the insurance company totaled last year due to we had a storm destroy our awning one...

    Washout on Trail 3

    Going to have to do an Environmental Impact Study, have at least 3 public forums to discuss the study. Then have to agree to make barriers walls on both sides of the trails so the sounds doesn't disturb the silent sports crowd along with building 50 more miles of trail for hikers/skiers in...

    I didn't see any other sledders out. There were two trucks in the parking lot but all I saw was one hiker up on a forest road.

    Waterfall tour

    I did 52 miles Saturday. Could've done a lot more but it was just me out having fun. Saw some other trucks and trailers in the lot.

    Funny you say that. My son, who lives in Montana, called last night and he'd been riding yesterday up north of Anaconda. We talked baout how we both wished it had been may 1st over the weekend so we could say we rode in May. He said that at least he rode on April 31st and there weren't many...

    Waterfall tour

    We've been up to the cabin the last two weekends and have taken advantage of the melting snow to visit some waterfalls. We've hit Gooseberry, Baptism River, Cross River, Temperance River, and the Cascade river. The water has been running good and will just get better as it warms up this week.

    Had to run up to the cabin to do a little work on Saturday and decided I'd better bring the sled with me. It was looking a little bleak as I head up Hwy 61 up the shore but I knew there's be snow up top. Got about 50 miles in, mostly forest roads but also some of the NSST. Latest I've rode so...

    New truck

    I don't know if you could even still order one. When I picked mine up the dealer said they were unable to order anymore as Ford had cut off orders. I also know the company I work for buy's several thousand super duty cab/chassis models every year and the order window is closed for us also...

    New truck

    If you are referring to the Ford 6.2 I did not have that before moving to this truck. I did see a report on the difference between the two engines though and the 7.3 reaches its max torque rating at a lot lower RPM than the 6.2. In fact the 7.3 is putting out more torque at something like 1800...

    New truck

    That would be a sweet truck. I gave some thought to the tremor package but I barely get into my garage right now and taller tires would make it awfully tight. I told my wife as soon as we move, hopefully next year, the next place will need a taller garage door and then I'll throw on some 35's.

    New truck

    So my cabin is only about 80 miles from home and we have good snow here most of the time also so I enjoy a weekend spin around here also. We used to leave them up there most of the time but don’t have a garage so we just parked them behind the cabin. But then weekends got busier with kid events...

    New truck

    So just got home from the cabin pulling the 4 place enclosed trailer. What a difference. There’s no sway, no wiggle. The truck is pulling the trailer, not the trailer pushing the truck. Very stable and confidence boosting. Some of you may remember a post I had a few years back where we hit some...
