dont forget to train for the downhill part of the trip. often those muscles are not as well trained and can give out on you. when you are already a little tired and hauling a loaded pack, it is easy to trip and hurt yourself. personally, if this is the first long, heavy pack trip you have done...

i cut mine for the exact same reasons a few years ago. i found on onlinemetalsdotcom a section of tubing that had the same ID and the OD of the leg tubing and bonded them to the upper rack, after fishmouthing the tubing so it would "sit" on the rack still attached to the truck. then i ran...

#1: i spent about 100 bucks to build the set-up for my tent. #2: i slept outside in utah in august and i will sleep outside in new mexico this year in january. i am not a delicate little flower and i dont need to be advised to stay home and watch the discovery channel. you dont want to sleep on...

it was like 9 feet i think... and because it was pretty thin in profile, there was no extra noise and gas mileage was not really any sh1ttier than it already is... i liked it in sandy conditions because up high, there was a lot less sand blowing into the tent. also, that was moab in august so...

i have the tjm on my truck and while i have not hit anything with it going faster than an offroad crawl, i have always felt good about the product. in fact, in looking at the deer strike photos, i still feel pretty good about it. if that guy hit the deer at 75 miles per hour, then that was a...

ahhh, well...you know how it is. if you support the president and your loved one dies, you are a hero. if you do not support the president, then you should shut up, sit down, stop being a collectivist communist coddling crybaby and understand that freedom is not free. coulter has always had a...
