Well, I didn't notice it too much, except the really, really steep hill climb to get to the chisos basin. I had to drop all the way down to 1st and 2nd gears. Also, dropped from about 16 mpg's to about 11 mpg's :eek: . That's a lot of dough to spend on gas for getting to and from such a...

Welcome to Expedition Portal. Glad to see another Texan join up. Let me know if you have any questions about BBNP. Good luck on your adventures throughout Central TX. Cheers, TD

Only saw 2 bluebonnets the whole time we were there. Not enough rainfall. Maybe a couple weeks later might help your chances. Items to see: Balanced Rock Santa Elena Canyon Boquillas Canyon East side of Chisos Mountains (Juniper Canyon, Pine Canyon, Glenn Springs Roads are all good places)...

Beretta A391 XTREMA2 SYNTHETIC But, the shortest barrel you can get is 26" May I ask what the purpose of the gun will be? Waterfowl hunting? Other types of hunting (you mentioned slugs), or home defense (trying to figure out the desire to have such a short barrel). Good luck in your search.

I'm in for 2 Martyn, Put me down for 2. Email sent. Thanks for the great find! TD

Mike, I really wish I could help you. I've been in the same boat too for a while now. I have an F5 with the 20mm f/2.8 and really miss that combo. I still have it, but I like shooting digital. The Nikon 12-24 will cost you a lot of coin and will leave you wanting more. It's not a great build...

Yes, it was quite a trip. I'm pretty bummed that I'm already back home. It flew by so fast.

I hadn't forgotten that hill climb. In fact, I remembered that time when I ran that trail this time. I'm just glad we got through it ok.

Part II: Rio Grande

Part II 3rd day: Fresno camp/ Mariscal Mine. The remains from this mine are pretty well preserved considering the conditions. Mining of mercury was carried out until the mine was closed in 1943. Fresno camp is wide open and offers views of all the surrounding mountains. Fresno camp: N29°06.028'...

Road conditions were excellent. The park apparently re-grades the roads towards the beginning of each year depending on conditions and rainfall. This didn’t provide much by way of challenges, but it did allow us to cover a lot of terrain and see more of the park. 1st day: Nugent Mountain. Easy...

My preference would be to lock it since it might be cool to reference later

Thanks, and you're right; I do. Where's the xmas tree smiley when you need it? Regarding the thread move. That's okay; I'll start a new one.

That's an understatement, but on target for sure. Thanks for all the support Nic.

Sounds like you need to re-wire the junction box to put the yellow wire (left turn) in the proper place. The center pin is for backup lights. It doesn't sound, based on your list of connections at the top of the thread, that you have a connection for backup lights. So, assuming all other...

Sometimes it's the little things that make you happy So, last night I was working 'til 1am getting stuff ready for the BBNP trip tomorrow. I installed a 12" hitch extender so that I can open the rear door to my truck. I got 3 of the silent hitch pins from Mario. As soon as I noticed that...

Thanks for the compliments. So far I'm very pleased with the purchase. Yes, those are matching wheels and tires.

Are you kidding? Sure it's far, but it's not like I'm never coming to Utah, due to the distance. It's worth it, and it'd be great to have you on the trip. You don't even have to call in sick, just call in disinterested.:p Regarding the pics, I posted a few in the driveway. I'll follow-up...

Yeah Wil, just tell 'em you've got the plague again. It could happen.

Not that I didn't consider that too!
