    BFG 285/75R16 & 265/75R16 1 each wanted

    Thanks to some alignment issues, I have two vehicles in need of one replacement tire each. Run BFG All-Terrain T/As on everything, but need a 265/75R16 load range E for the truck, and a 285/75R16 (also E) for the Montero. Rest of the tires on both vehicles are 50-75% of tread.

    Knee Surgery, Anyone?

    My daughter has had knee surgery twice by Dr Charles Beck in South Jordan. Would highly recommend him. First was ACL, second meniscus tears on the opposite knee. If you were my patient, I would certainly recommend being seen at this point. Likely they will recommend an MRI, but a lot of knee...

    trip report: Hudson Bay Quest Dog Sled Race

    Greens most common, but have been able to see a few reds mixed in. Unfortunately the best show this year happened while I was stuck on the train and missed it. Some great pics here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.677145972394061.1073741837.181325115309485&type=3 Photos by one of...

    trip report: Hudson Bay Quest Dog Sled Race

    I have only been to the Iditarod for their trail vet training course and to help with pre-race exams on the dogs. On my to-do list, and would be a fun way to see a lot of central Alaska. I have found the dogs seem to perform best in the window of -10F to about 0. But even in the -30F range...

    trip report: Hudson Bay Quest Dog Sled Race

    Head trail vet and member of race organizing committee. I think over my years at the race dog sled is about the only mode of transportation available in the area I have not used in my duties (done old Bombardier snow coach, snowmobile, passenger and freight trains, trucks on the train track...

    trip report: Hudson Bay Quest Dog Sled Race

    About 3pm Sunday the weather changed: Breezy and 40F became 5F and 60 MPH winds in matter of couple hours. By late evening temp fell further to -5. No real complaints, as we were in town by then. Most the rest the time until leaving Tuesday temps stayed below zero, with windchills even...

    trip report: Hudson Bay Quest Dog Sled Race

    Only a couple dogs required treatment, and one musher was forced for health reasons to end the race at the check point. Early Sunday morning (3am) we loaded the dogs and some supplies on the freight train, then waited for a ride out via truck on the tracks later that day. Passing the site of...

    trip report: Hudson Bay Quest Dog Sled Race

    Once the teams where on the trail, we had a few hours until we caught the train that night, so we toured a local hydroelectric dam. It is really cool how in the middle of it they let us get. Can't see any US plants doing that anymore! Loaded committee members, handlers (the important folks...

    trip report: Hudson Bay Quest Dog Sled Race

    Recently returned from my annual trip north (it is great to go somewhere that refers to Minnesota as "down south".) Race started in Gillam, Manitoba. We were welcomed by beautiful March weather: -8F. Prerace health checks on the dogs the next day would have been ideal for the race...

    Tractor advice needed

    Different thought: Pay to have the manure hauled and pens dragged. We have debated the purchase of a tractor versus paying someone to do the work. With 6 horses we hand pick the pen daily (30-40 minute job) then have the manure hauled away about every 2-3 months and have the pen dragged 3-4...
