    Owen Springs Night Run

    Sure glad everyone made it through safely. Too bad about the Troopy though. Sounds like that was one heck of a storm.

    Jeep Liberty 12v Temp power.

    I pulled the trim where the cig lighter is and tapped into the line adding an inline fuse. I get no detectable noise on mine.

    best way to air down?

    I built a 4 tire at once air down/air up thingamabob. Some air hose, clip on chucks, a tire inflation handle with gauge from Harbor Freight, and a few air Ts and I was in business, Air down is simple. Takes less than a minute to connect all four tires. Then just pull the trigger with nothing...

    255/70 R16

    I am running this size in a General Grabber AT2. Tires are great. However, this is closer to a 30 inch than a 31. The 245/75/16 is actually a bit taller at closer to 30.5 inch albeit narrower. My next set will either be 245/75/16 or 235/85/16 (32 inch).

    Land Between the Lakes 7/14-7/15 2008

    Sure could be. There's tons of old cemeteries. The FS removed most of the structures that existed before it became a National Recreation area, but there are still some old cabins and some foundations back in the woods. Turkey Bay can be as easy or hard as you like trails to be.

    Land Between the Lakes 7/14-7/15 2008

    Great report. I love going to LBL. Especially in the fall when the leaves start to change. The best trip I had up there was in Oct. Those roads can be rough. I have seen mud holes with ruts deep enough to swallow a TJ on 35's.

    Ozarks Camping and Exploring July 2-4 2008

    Haw Creek Falls was pretty nice. Being the week of the fourth, there were some partying campers that made it a little less than ideal with their firecrackers. There is no running water other than the stream, so take your own. There was another campground we looked at named Long Pool. It was very...

    Ozarks Camping and Exploring July 2-4 2008

    My good friend LJ and I both decided we needed to get out of Memfrica for some R&R. We tentatively planned to go into the Ozarks and do some camping, explore some of the forest roads, and do a little hiking. We really didn't know where exactly we were going to end up so we stopped in Russelville...

    A little bit higher...

    Hey Scott, Congrats on the Franky. It is so much better than that spacer lift you had. Take a lot of pictures in Moab for those of us stuck back here in Memphis.

    Post Pic's of your Jeep

    Hey, I camped in that exact same location back in Sept. 2002. It was a bast with the rainstorm that came through with the rain going sideways, bikini topped TJ, and a lack of tent poles (accidentally left at the Farabees:oops:). I think that little tree has grown and inch since then. And here...

    LA(and AZ and SD too) ExPo Death Valley Trip

    Wow, what an experience. I don't envy the situation you were in, but it sounds like a great group to be with when something like that happens. I guess all the pressure from the heat and the stuck stat was more than the plastic tank could take. Are you going back with another OEM style or looking...

    Wilson Cellphone Booster

    Thanks for the insight. The PDF is from their CDMA based product so that may be why it speaks specifically about the CDMA. I am on a CDMA phone and network (Cellular South) now and so that's why I was looking at it. I may have to pick one up for when I am out in the sticks. In the city there are...

    Wilson Cellphone Booster

    Ahhh, the good old days of 3 watt analog bag phones using 850Mhz spectrum. ;) I admit to not knowing much about the amps and such. Grim, we are in a the same industry just in different roles. The company I work for creates the coverage maps used by many carriers amongst other things. Lately I've...

    Wilson Cellphone Booster

    Supposedly the Wilson unit adjusts power to not overload the site. Their website says this several times.

    Moab Draft RMP/EIS Comments

    Folks, Tomorrow is the last day to comment on this. Please let the BLM know that we the public want this land to be available for our type of recreation. I live in the east and I have no resource like Moab. The closest public lands National Forests have basically closed any and all roads that...
