Hey Vogold, where did you go camping? That looks like a cinder cone in the background in one of your pictures. I am so happy to see that you and Mike are ironing out your issues and are actually able to get out camping. still waiting to get my Beastie back from Canada. I finally finished...

Mike, A couple things I've found out about the Wag Bags; first, don't leave them in hot, sunny locations. The "plastic" they are made up of is set up to decompose quicky. I believe it is a corn starch composite. Thus pretty environmental. Second, if stored too long the power becomes solid. It...

Look like they are mil spec! I'm going to check into them. Thank you for this info. Dale

nice pics! My smaller windows are much more flush with the sides. Rock deflectors sound like a good idea with your setups. perhaps mud flaps too?

Mike, Nanc and I are really impressed with the way you are modifying the trailer to match you needs. That kitchen setup is great. I was leery of your foldout table but now that we can see it I wouldn’t mind having one myself. Nanc also likes the hanging utensil holder and the paper towel rack...

Excuse my ignorance but do you have a pic of the splinded lug nuts?

Well, damn it, can't get out camping. So have been listening to some tunes. This version of "Not Fade Away" by Buddy Holly is one of my favorites. Kinda shows my age too! Doesn't have much to do with camping other than is exudes the same feeling of joy I get from hitting a new trail or walking...

Welcome aboard Daisy22!

Good ideas Mike. I had Mark install a Max Coupler before I picked Beastie up. id like to have a rear bumper like yours. The added 12” would make it work for me.

Yes, I made sure that all the wheels and tires were the same on the 4Runner and Beastie. I keep a special socket in the glovebox that will fit.

I almost hate to give this area any publicity. The Riggins, ID, area is remote and beautiful. I want to get back here, to this site, set up Beastie for a multiday camp, and go fly fishing. I look at that burnt stump of a pine tree and wonder; was the snow load so high some winter past that the...

This late spring time is typically when we set out to see some new country. Not this year. But some time soon. Where does the time go? Check out Nancy Griffith singing "Who knows where the time goes?" on YouTube. 10,000 Maniacs does a pretty good job with this song too. Judy Collins, Rufus...

"The world is not in your books and maps...it's out there...you'll have a story of your own to tell when you come back." - Galdalf the Grey to Bilbo Baggins in the book "The Hobbit" by J.R.R. Tolkein. A good read. My buddy Geoff's 60 series LC in southeastern Utah a few years ago.

Do any of you have a proper weight of your trailer loaded? This is one of the first things I plan on doing when I get Beastie back home.

This sitting around is getting to me. Trying to contact Mark to see how much and how quickly I can get Beastie shipped down here. I can't go and get it, but a "commercial" company can bring it down to me.

I have mentioned this a couple of times in the past, but it's true; the Yaak area in northwest Montana is one of my favorite spots to visit, although I only get there infrequently. This vastly improved upon pre-Beastie photo was taken over a decade ago. Hensley Hill is a wonderful spot to view...
