    Expedition Utah Quarterly Trail Ride: Transcontinental Railroad Documentation Project

    Looks like I'm out for the camping portion, but I'll be there at 8:00AM Saturday. I assume this is an all-day event and we need to provide our own food and drink.

    General Tech Wrangler Rubicon stock slider extension

    Why do you always figure out the easy way to do it after you do it the hard way. So I was cleaning up the disaster left in my shop when I looked at a large piece of cardboard that I needed to put someplace. I could have built up the entire slider extension and left the 'legs' over long then cut...

    General Tech Wrangler Rubicon stock slider extension

    Thanks guys, now it's time to go knock some paint off.. This project also settled the question I've had lately about whether or not to get some flux core wire. It was not possible to get the flap disk in to clean all of the powder coat off for welding the bracing on the mounting brackets and a...

    General Tech Wrangler Rubicon stock slider extension

    I have been wanting to do this for some time now. The stock sliders on my Rubicon are much to close to the body for comfort so I extended them with some 1x2 1/8" wall tube in a fashion similar to the Mopar "Enhanced" rails. I also lopped an inch off the back in preparation for 35's some day...

    Any fossil hunters on here?

    I thought it would be fun to take the kids to look for Trilobites. I've found info that there are beds in the Wellsville Mountains but the directions are pretty vague. Anyone have some specific directions they could provide? Thanks -Eric

    best albums of 2012 so far?

    Austin was/is an amazing place for music. At the time, he was just one of many really good bands that played the area. I saw SRV and Double Trouble maybe 10-15 times in various clubs during the early 80's. He typically played 3 50-60min sets, one of them all Hendrix covers. He opened every...

    Well that was a bit scary (skyline drive, no really, skyline drive)

    Since this was along the ridge, not much continued down. Down was definitely the scariest though, back end wanted to swap places with the front. Funny you mention snow. Just prior to the rain I was commenting that I'd love to do this drive with 4" of new snow. I may have to retract that...

    Well that was a bit scary (skyline drive, no really, skyline drive)

    This got really crazy starting in the vicinity of where the power lines cross and on into the vicinity of the spot where you weave between the big boulders. The road up to skyline from Spring City is nicely improved, with real road base, plus it was dry.

    Well that was a bit scary (skyline drive, no really, skyline drive)

    So my wife and I decided to beat the heat today. Let's go drive along skyline drive I say, it's beautiful and this really easy dirt road (my wife does Not like to wheel). We started onto skyline drive from Hw 6. Easy going, stunning scenery, cool temps. We did the stretch from 6 to 31 with a...
