So I made a ramp out of an old extension ladder. Spent an hour last night trying to get the Boxer dog to climb said ramp into the tent. I put pieces of chicken leading up the ramp. He only ate the ones he could reach without having to get on the ramp. He did slip a few inches while on the ramp...
Best advice I can give. Get that kid mobile as soon as possible. In other words, don't be the parents who keep their fragile new human locked up in a house for the first year of its life. Take it home from the hospital, give it a 2 hour nap at home, then toss it in the car and go somewhere. I am...
I have the M101 trailer pictured below. With the cap on it, I can travel with a lot of gear. I don't routinely haul trailers, so I don't know too much about how to distribute the cargo weight. I have been told to prevent a serious fish tail situation, its best not to have too much weight in the...
I am intrigued by the skottle. I have never seen one in person or cooked on one. Quick question:
Other than size/weight savings, what does the skottle give me, that a nice big frying pan and a Coleman stove do not?

The pic of you and your son at teakettle junction made me smile. You can tell that the two of you...
Wow man, great write up. Made me feel like I was there with you. A couple things:
The selfie of all three if you in the truck.....you may have been nervous on the switchbacks, but you could tell in the photo that the dog had all the confidence in the world you were going to make it through...
Nice build. Your top rack is well done.
I have an M101 as well. Lucky for me, the previous owner put an A.R.E. pick up truck cap on it. No way do I have the skill set to weld a rack like you have. Looks like you could park your truck on top of the rack if you wanted to. Actually seems strong...
