    Kelly Point Pictures

    Scott, there are no established campgrounds except Toroweep. All others are "find a nice spot and camp". It goes without saying that one uses already existing fire rings though. For a long winded answer, here goes. Twin Points: There is a great camp site at Oak Grove, actually if I recall it...

    Kelly Point Pictures

    We've always wanted to do the hike to the river at Whitmore, but it seems we are always there when it's blistering hot. We want to do the eastern half of the A S next time. I think there's trees over there with many roads to explore. Thanks again for posting.

    Nice pics and thanks. You show only the "nice" roads, but not the "real" road going into Kelly Point such as this: Thanks again, your pics brought back some very nice memories.

    Heat problems with mobile base unit? Yeasu 8800

    Thanks for the input. It got me to think maybe provide some perforations fore and aft of the space to get more air movement behind the bulkhead. Ahhh, we have a remote temp gauge for our fridge that if I bought another one and put the sending unit next to the radio, I could monitor the temps...

    Heat problems with mobile base unit? Yeasu 8800

    I have moved my base unit from under the drivers seat to a location above the rear wheel well. I am doing this as I will have a 17 gallon water storage tank about 6" away from the under seat position and if a major leak occurs, it would fry my dual band. It will be on the outside of the interior...

    Full Size (LARGE) Family Adventure Rig - Selection Question

    Here's a 03 Excursion. It is on a lot, stopped and looked. The doors were open so I hopped up and those are HUGH. Only bad thing is the 6" lift. Seems it could hold as many as you like. :) I have absolutly no (financial) interest in this vehicle. The saleman said it came from Arizona...

    Went to the FJ Cruiser. It has a VERY civilized ride both on and off pavement.

    How to stop side to side rocking?

    I can't help you, but I did have a 98 Tacoma 4 x 4 with just a canopy that did the same thing. Sometimes it was extremely unsafe at highway speeds on pavement. Seems like just uneven pavement started the rocking. It's one reason I got rid of it. I tried much stiffer springs in the rear and did...

    03 Ford Expedition 4 x4, Pahrump NV

    Yep, you're correct - that's how much I pay attention to those very large vehicles (that would be VLV's)

    03 Ford Expedition 4 x4, Pahrump NV

    Not mine and I have nothing to do with the sale of this. I saw this on a lot, stopped and was somewhat amazed. I remember a thread about someone with a family of 7 looking for a rig. This would be it. It was unlocked so I climbed in a took a look around. It's actually in very nice condition...

    SLO's SW Utah Adventure......

    Excellent start, looking forward to the "rest of the story". How about posting what you did for your below truck windbreak? Maybe post it elsewhere on the forum (only reason would be to not hijack your own thread), Fireside or Camping equipment? I have been on trips where others have the...

    Exp.Ut. Southern Utah Traverse, Sept 09'

    The comment highlighted above is a negative comment that is not necessary at all. There have been discussions about why people don't post trips as much as they use to. Your comment is one reason. Your opinion is your opinion and should not be used to denigrate a very fine post. Is the posting of...
