    Any Mtn Bikers on RME?

    Man, I keep trying to blame my bike, but in all honesty, I'm 40lbs overweight, old, and lazy.

    Chimney question

    I would imagine the winds in Alpine are just as chaotic as they are on my side of South Mountain. If there are two flues to the top and both are the correct size (most flue tiles I've seen are 8x8(64sq in) and a typical stove insert uses 6" round (19 sq in), you may need a windproof chimney...

    it can actually be a hindrance sometimes when not in 4wd. While climbing Cougar pass heading for Stateline from the WahWahs (I think it's cougar, DAA chime in here) with maybe 6-8% grades and gravel road I thought I was having engine problems. When I'd give it some gas the engine would build...

    Chimney question

    an absolute must to make a stove insert work correctly is to have an appropriate sized pipe go all the way to the top of the brick chimney. Been there and finally figured it out. It doesn't need to be double walled if inside a brick chimney, but most installers don't do it at all because you...

    Little Cottonwood Canyon Pictograph

    I could have done that but was trying to keep the rest of the colors reasonable. The dstretch stuff really really shows the shapes well though

    My new 2019 Ford F250 6.2 Gasser review/info...

    Newer half-tons max out over 11K (13.2 k for the right package w/3.5 ecoboost), but you'd definitely be the dog wagged by the tail.

    Any Mtn Bikers on RME?

    I did my maiden voyage with a new North Shore 4 place rack this past weekend with a trip to gooseberry mesa. I had zero issues with it (even when Ashton hit 100 passing a jerk camping in the left lane :) ).

    Work screw ups...

    While in high school I worked in a Western Auto warehouse. 1.2 million sq ft of rows of pallet racks. Once I heard a crash. A forklift driver knocked a leg out from under one of the racks which caused a chain reaction and the whole row collapsed. It fell toward the lift and took out...
