  1. Yes. Bring it. Man so different from my last time there.  Now all the good free camping is just up the road where I used to go 4x4ing in my Honda Accord to find firewood. And the “campground “ is closed (not sure if shutdown related). 

  2. It’s a bit more fiddlly than the inreach (I have a Mini2).  Others thing about the mini2 is it has insane battery life, versus a phone (unless you go airplane mode, etc).  I also wonder how much longer the satellite messaging will be free…I’m betting it will at some point cost extra.

     

    that said if I already had not paid for the garmin I probably wouldn’t at this point. And I’m probably not getting good value for my money given how many times a year I am truly out of cell service. But for now I still pay for the Garmin service. 
     

    it won’t be long till there won’t be such a thing as “off the grid”  or “out of cell service “ … the death of that freedom

  3. On a road trip in Idaho and Montana and came across this hat in a thrift store in a little town in Montana when I stopped in to get some steak knifes.  Got this and three steak knifes for $2.  Thank you Steve and RIP.IMG_1279.jpeg.d1298781ebaab3e6f04d0ee0e0bf9974.jpeg

  4. Unfortunately NWAlpine is calling it quits.  Not sure what the plan is there, but taking the advert down.

    If you like their stuff (quality, made in a America) then get in on their going out of business sale here:

    All the best to all....

  5. Now you’re on to something.  Fire all the statisticians, force the team to give the US government 20% ownership of the team, make it so you can only buy tickets to the games with Trumpcoins. Deport any player with a batting average under .200.

    Hey there! I know this trip was a few years ago, but any chance you'd be willing to share tracks or let me ask you some questions about your route? I would love to bring my pup up with me. Mostly curious if you diverted much from the standard approach. Thanks! 

    I don’t think I deviated much for the standard approach, if at all. 
    I think I may have the tracks, I believe I have my trip on Strava.

    Im glad I did it, but I was super worried about Kiba going up and coming down. Perhaps only for a short section, but it was stressful. I’m definitely by far not the only person to take my dog up there, and after this I got Kiba a proper climbing harness.  Just fyi.  But happy to share whatever I got.
