COOL! Did you see the latest AZ Hwys mag? They cover that very topic. I took the Humphreys trail. I think it took about 7 hrs RT (slow pace). I can email my GPS file if you want it (or you can DL one from HikeAZ). Let me know when you do Humphreys in case I can meet up with you (if u don't...

Ahhhh, we know what you mean! I was blown away by the place as well. Hey, that is a nice catch on the fish! Mark, I really like your truck and everything you are doing with it. Keep up the good work! :beer:

This is a great thread - very fun stuff. Nice work on those rear springs, the flex looks fantastic.:beer: I hear ya on the stock wheels. I really like them too. Let us know what you think of those shocks. We'll be watching for the updates on the Baja GPS and the other goodies :lurk:

Oh yea, I should also add that this trip could be a perfect excuse for anyone who is planning on getting a VHF 2-meter radio to get on the ball and get a license and get one installed. Al uses one and it is definitely the preferred method of comm's when on a trip with him. [Technical...

Al is the man. Doc, I wouldn't pass up that offer if I were you! :D (or anyone else who has always wanted to go). :campfire:

Oh man, that bobtail looks cool! I'm diggin it :cool: Fun thread KC

Ahhhh.... MEXICO! :sunny: Mark, you just made my morning. Love the list, the commentary and the pics. I'm soaking it up like a sponge... great for satisfying my cabin-fever between trips :D I love the bumper and the tank! :bowdown: Cool to see you have no fear of making holes in your...

Here's a test. Have someone half a tree-saver strap around your thigh and then give it a good tug with the winch. Note the results. Now have them wrap a 2" strap around your thigh several times and have a good tug with the winch. Compare results. :) (...waiting to see if someone will...

I have seen them used in the horiz. position. Vertical mounting is preferable because it keeps a void between the liquid CO2 and the regulator for gas to occupy, thereby more efficient (and probably safer, with less freeze-up of the valve assy.) http://www.powertank.com/faqs#question12

Another good piece Jonathan. :) FWIW, Arizona covers 73 million acres. There are only 1.2 million acres of inventoried roadless areas here.

Excellent report KC! Glad you had such a worthwhile trip home. That is too cool. I'll second that for sure. Fantastic pics!

HUH? (head pops up out of nowhere with big eyes)

Congrats! Great mod. I'm not quite sure I know what you mean by this. Can you elaborate?

Brian, you may also want to check the underside of your bed rails. I know on the Tacomas, there are oval holes stamped in the sheetmetal where the inner and outer skins of the bedsides are seamed together. This occurs on the underside of the bed rails. Dust will get in through these holes if...

That is fantastic. Nice to hear from someone who has gone the distance!

:o

ExplorOz just published a nice little article on inverters. Keep in mind they cite the use of 240v (for the most part, we use 120v here) but the info is the same otherwise. I have a little 175w inverter in my truck but it rarely gets used. I just don't have any gadgets that require 120v except...

Mark, thanks for the leg work and pics! Great stuff! BX, I just got home from a 5 day adventure and the fever has not left my body. I hear ya man!!

Another shot from Moab along the Colorado river...

Bill! Holy cow! I can't believe you went through all of that and did the full loop with that many blisters, nausea, and not enough water. You are one tuff dude. Yea, what I had said was that when at the trailhead, if you look at the billboard sign showing the trail, you would see the colorado...
