    My Journey

    Lander, Wyoming is pretty much at the southern end of the Wind River Mountain Range.....so the plan now was to circle around the southern end of the mountain.....and rather than take the main highway around the mountain, we chose the Loop Road.....which actually crosses the southern end of the...

    ITTOG.....well, it figures that I didn't get the joke. I rarely look at other posts anymore (except for tacototheworld of course).....there's just too much hate & arguing for me on XP anymore. I pretty much lost interest in XP a few years ago, maybe more.....sadly.....plus, I'm not an...

    My Journey

    We continued to see deer up here but surprisingly we never spotted a single elk..... And we continued to cross more of the crystal clear mountain streams..... Oddly, it seems to me, that out here in the middle of nowhere were a multitude of plaques that were placed at or near Union...

    My Journey

    Once again, we stopped often.....we stopped to rid ourselves of the confines of that beat up, old Jeep.....and to walk along the forest service roads.....our attempt to make these tiny adventures into what I really wanted.....a hike into the wild mountains & the dense forest...

    Ace.....nope..... Jupiter58.....thanks..... Ghostdancer.....I'd be interested in your story unless you're staying at Marriotts, wearing golf shirts, ironed slacks, and sneakers & sampling fine cuisines.....I like my dirtbags..... ITTOG / PNWY.....I'm not getting the underground...

    My Journey

    PNWY.....my dogs hate them as do I.....I like hunters just fine but hunting is just not my thing..... There were three distinct activities going on in this region that seemed (no, actually it did) to change with elevation.....down low were the hunters.....there were lots of them...

    My Journey

    Next, we backtracked, and headed north, once again passing through Teton National Park and at Moran Junction, we turned east-southeast along Highway 26.....the plan now was to explore the Wind River Mountain Range..... We met a local lady somewhere close to Dunoir, Wyoming that told us about...

    My Journey

    It was only the need to explore more places that finally got us to move on..... We made one last trip in the Jeep to the summit of Shadow Mountain (8,252') .....I didn't bother to take summit pictures here since we drove to the summit, so technically speaking, it really wasn't a true...

    My Journey

    Ghostdancer.....I too remember hanging out in the Keys back in the 70's and I recall loving it back then. I had hitchhiked down the east coast, and the Keys were my last stop in the U.S. before flying on to Caracas, Venezuela.....those were those days my friend..... I'm curious now.....what...

    SmOkyXPLR.....I guess it should be a concern, but not a fear. Thousands of people are out hiking in bear country every day, and obviously most aren't attacked by bears. Like they say, just "be bear aware"..... Riversdad.....I purchased a new phone Spring of 2023 (Samsung Galaxy 22S+). I...

    PNWY / Arjan.....it's a double edge sword for sure. This trip may be short lived.....I'm still not certain. The hip surgeon wouldn't clear me for travel as he said I needed at least another month or more of home recovery. I went without their blessings. I'm now paying a price. I long for my life...

    My Journey

    We spent the late afternoon and evening here taking longs walks along the forest service roads..... .....and just relaxing and enjoying everything that Mother Nature had to offer..... That night was cold.....my neighbor said that it was 28 degrees that following morning..... We took...

    My Journey

    .....and proceeded to the..... .....where the scenery just continued to be sensational.....a place where you almost feel alone.....but not quiet there yet..... I swear the dogs love the travel & adventure just as much as I do. I'm beginning to think that they missed travel & adventure...

    My Journey

    Ace.....to answer your question, yes & no. The woman that I gave Bridger to is the perfect companion for Bridger. She's a retired national park ranger, loves the outdoors, loves dogs having once owned four Golden Retrievers, and now is dealing with a major life changing health condition. When I...

    Ace.....makes sense.....hoping that I'll never need them..... mekcanix.....Rosie looks like a great dog.....I love the rescues ! I love them so much, I gave Bridger to a friend of mine. My friend watched the dogs during my last surgery and she fell in love with Bridger.....she took her home...

    Northern Lite 610 for 1/2 Ton PU

    I had warranty work done on my Northern Lite a few years ago, and while I was waiting, they took me on a tour of their plant. I agree, it's pretty cool to see these campers manufacturered and assembled.

    halseyt.....well, you never know. As Ace can attest to, often I can be a difficult guy to track down. But if our paths cross, I'd love to have coffee or share a campsite with you. This year I'm thinking of traveling more to the east than I typically do, possibly hanging out in Wyoming (Wind...
