    Wanted: Flip Pac

    We are 'bb'. Isn't that a kick? Talk about Goldilocks! We just returned from a three-week trip into Canada. Fifty percent of our 'team' decided that climbing up into bunks is no longer fun, and since 'she' ( I won't mention names.) represents nearly ninety percent of the voting power on the...

    The Great Roadway Bazaar

    I remember Andy Grider saying after competing in the "Romaniacs" competition that it is an "interesting" country. He especially liked some of the rural scenery. Allen R

    The Great Roadway Bazaar

    That's great, Scott. Just like tracking the Dakar Rally. :rally_guys: I've bookmarked it with "Scott on Spot". Have a great time! Allen R

    Chet, you once posted an offer to provide a fellow Expo member with information about Vancouver Island. Diana (my wife) and I plan to depart from home around 8/2, head west to the coast, work our way up to Port Angeles, ferry across to Victoria, spend a couple of nights there, then up to Port...

    Fishing the San Juan: Pagosa

    Good show on the San Juan. That is nice water. Glad to see you had a successful trip. It's great to see others enjoying fly-fishing, especially newcomers. I had fabulous day, Wednesday, taking a friend (fly-fishing-newbie) out on to Silver Ck and the Big Wood. The day was perfect and we each...

    CL Missoula, MT -- FlipPac for Dakota

    Still no photos yet. Been too busy, but the camper has received use. Deschutes River, Big Wood River, Middle Fork of the Salmon, and more. I noticed some hairline cracks in the gelcoat on the roof so had the whole camper painted. Looks nice. (Take my word for it...no pix yet.) Visitors coming...

    Brought home the used FlipPac...

    I've been checking over the one we brought back from Montana. I don't see any problems at the hinge area. Is there something specfic I should look for? There's a bit of rust on the exposed shaft where the crank handle fits, but that seems normal. There is a fair amount of sealant at the point...

    Rat in the engine compartment...lots of damage $$$

    In the absence of a garage or a killer-cat, try leaving your hood open a bit. Naturally, you'll want to prevent any strong wind from sending your bonnet back into your windscreen, but having the open space prevents our Snake River Plain packrats from making nests in the engine compartment. This...

    Hey Jan, Many thanks for the contact and offer. We've traveled the Baja Peninsula so much (since 1967) that we've begun to look for other places to go. Our trip to Namibia a few years ago really inspired us. We just returned from Boise discussing tentative plans for a return to Namibia; also...

    CL Missoula, MT -- FlipPac for Dakota

    Nope, only six, and... ...absolutely spot on. I used some pieces of ½-inch plywood, although I forgot to take go4aryd's good advice and check them after twenty minutes. The 60-mph winds, sideways snow, and folks in the ditches distracted me. It wasn't until about two hours later that I...

    Vehicle Rod Rack

    I'm assuming that by "roof not an option" you mean the exterior roof. I didn't buy a 'product' as such. In our Excursion, Suburbans, Cherokee, and Volvos I suspended clothes rods from the stock hooks near the roof. The clothes rods are encapsulated in foam insulation tubes, and I wound an...

    CL Missoula, MT -- FlipPac for Dakota

    I spoke with "D" at FRP on Friday. She assured me that the plastic tips of the struts would be mailed to me that afternoon. In the spirit of good faith, I sent a check to cover the parts and S/H right after I spoke with her, so we'll see. Anyway, as soon as I receive those, I'll open the tent...

    Anyone using a lead acid battery in their AT?

    Hey Terry, Sorry, I can't be of any help with your battery problem. We had a Lifeline in our Horizon and I had two Interstates in the Conqueror...not to mention the FIVE Interstates in the ATRV. All had been connected to charge-maintenance units when in storage. No problems with any except two...

    CL Missoula, MT -- FlipPac for Dakota

    It was a good experience. The seller is a fine fellow, and he did not misrepresent the unit. It is, indeed, as he described it. I received a 'heads-up' from a friend, who also reads ExpoPortal frequently, who told me the Flip-Pac in Missoula was back on CL and with a lower price. Judging from...

    CL Missoula, MT -- FlipPac for Dakota

    Yep, guilty as charged. It'll do me nicely on my little forays into wild trout country. Allen R (The trip back yesterday over Chief Joseph Pass-Hwy 93-was a bit of an adventure in itself. 60 mph crosswinds between Missoula and Hamilton; blizzard-type conditions near the summit; and jack-knifed...

    Tying flys

    Really great, Kellymoe. Wow! Eight years old. He'll be getting orders soon. You have a fantastic experience ahead of you, and that is when your son releases the first fish he hooks on his own fly. Allen R
