    Red River, Enchantment Circle New Mexico

    After playing around in the snow, we were hungry, our feet were getting wet and cold and with everything full of snow and not finding a good place to set the grill, we decided to go back down to the cabin to grill some steaks and celebrate my birthday. Like I said, it was a bit more challenging...

    Goose Lake Goose Lake. We'd been wanting to make it here for a while, after viewing lots of posts, pictures and videos about it; but being here it's something else...it's so impressive...pictures just don't do justice to this place. I guess is a matter of perspective, in the pictures these...

    San Lorenzo Canyon/Cibola NF, New Mexico

    Coleman Taos build

    I haven't tried towing with it yet, I've worked on properly bolting down the front aluminum toolbox last weekend, because the previous owner used sheet metal screws only. I hope to have time to try it this weekend.

    I'm glad it helps, I still have to try it in more extreme road conditions, I may have to make a longer arm on the TV side; I'll post the results when I do it. One thing I forgot to mention before, between the two joint brackets there are two 3/4"weld holes that were not shown in the pictures...
