    Dunham Backpacking boots

    I bought these about a year ago based on an award Bacpacker magazine gave them. I searched low and high and finally found a pair online. I hiked in them maybe 10 miles, and they look absolutely like new. No bad smells, ********es or any wear on the soles. I am trying to get rid of some excess gear...

    Bargain Bridging Ladders

    I'm guessing there isn't a real need to go wider than 12", but maybe an extra 2" would be nice for a little more load capacity I'd guess. Are these practically the same as were posted in another thread, only these have no gritty surface? As posted by another member on here: "I have been...

    Bargain Bridging Ladders

    IS 2" as thick as they come? I'm guessing the weight of a 60 or 80 series LC is about the same as the front of your Envoy. Do you forsee problems seeing as they don't have an imbedded grit surface? For 100 bucks, they could be a very good addition to an off road kit.

    Dana Designs Backpack...signed by Dana.

    I have this pack in orange, bought it used as well. Honestly, it's the toughest pack I've ever had. It's completely bomber, and will haul a huge load without breaking a sweat. These are true expedition, big mountain packs. I do believe they have a lifetime warranty, but coul be wrong on...

    Trans Vermont Expedition (Nov.1 - Nov.5, 2007)

    That is an interesting read. Is anyone up for planning a group trip in the summer / fall on VT's class IV roads? I'd love to go back up there and get to see the roads less travelled.

    Vermont and The Adirondacks

    VT rivaled a few places out west IMO. My gf and I are deciding about possibly either moving to Jackson Hole, or somewhere in VT for the summer and maybe longer.

    Vermont and The Adirondacks

    I loved the Nittos in the snow. I'm sure it helps that they are practically brand new as well. I hit some deep stuff 3 feet plus just for fun and they pulled me right along. 6 plus hours of driving some days in completely snow covered roads and they never slipped once. I drove a lot faster...

    Trailer MPG and tendency to flip

    Thanks for chiming in Martyn, and thanks for the numbers MaddBaggins. Martyn, both of my kayaks weigh 60 lbs each. My RTT weighs about 125 (Magg Airland Med.) So, I'm guessing it wouldn't make any difference which one was on top. The thought of putting the kayaks underneath the RTT was so...

    Trailer MPG and tendency to flip

    Two quick separate questions here: How much does towing say an M416 trailer with a RTT mounted on it and loaded with camping goodies kill MPG? I would assume it can't be much worse than having the RTT on the roof, but I'm not sure. Just trying to stay out of single digits with my 80 series...

    Vermont and The Adirondacks

    Thanks for the comments everyone. KevinNY, I am going to try to get back there in the summer. I still have to try to make it to Man Of Kent with you. I had some ridiculously awesome beer there. It is definitely nice to not have to worry about insects, one thing I always like about cold...

    Vermont and The Adirondacks

    My girlfriend, dog and I finished up some VT and Adirondack Mountains exploring. We were out from 12/26 - 12/31. It was a little over 1000 miles round trip from SE PA. It turned out to be a good time overall, and I got the chance to test out some equipment. We camped in the Adirondacks at a...

    Question

    VT has class IV highways I think they are called. They are closed in the winter and the spring; mud season". There is a recent thread on here regarding a trip taken on these roads by an offroad club. I'd check out VT, NH, ME if I were staying in the NE. Coastal ME is also gorgeous, and...

    Question

    I was just up in VT and NY's Adirondacks. There are a lot of great things to see in the NE. Howvever, having also travelled out west, I don't think the NE can compare. There are way more natural wonders out west, and much more varied terrain. Of course it's a lot farther of a trip, but worth...

    Does anyone used engine pre-heaters?

    with one of these coolant heaters installed on the lower rad hose: will the heated coolant "flow" through the entire system? ie will it circulate, or just warm up a small section? I'm not sure how it would flow through without the waterpump running.
