    Hey I live in Denver area and I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post but I'm trying to figure out how to obtain some much needed recovery gear ie. Hilift jack, maxtracks for my rig. I'm doing solo trips into the Mts because I'm new to the area so I can really use the confidence just in case . I have a new never dropped leupold 3x9 scope I'm willing to part with for a trade. Hopping the community could steer me into the right direction. Any info, tips or help would be much appreciated.
    P. S. I am a plumber so my skills are also up for trade.

    However I wouldn't recommend solo trips where recovery would be needed, especially being new to the area. I think most here would agree.

    There's also this thread for Colorado Events to keep an eye on:

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/upcoming-colorado-events.187907/

    Various Colorado 4x4 pages on facebook as well to ask if anyone would tag along. Colorado ain't no joke when it comes to the number of trails and with a little bit of snow, the easiest trail becomes the most difficult, no matter your skill, you'll get stuck.

    If you are looking to buy new gear there are lots of vendors around town like toytec, 4wheel parts, RSG off-road, slee, etc. If you’re looking for used gear check out the Colorado trading post thread.

    I was thinking the water was running down the outside of the vent pipe, from the roof, and ending up on the floor. It's a dry vent. I was in the attic today and it's dry.
    I was on a roofing repair crew for a while and saw leaks do just exactly that. Water can drop on a pipe and follow it to the other side of the building before it leaves a mark, and lead you to think it's coming from another source.

    No idea where this water is coming from, it's clean, not fromunda sauce either.
    I check the side of the tub after showers and it's dry, no water running off the edge.
    :notsure:

    Have you checked the supply line for the toilet? Make sure it’s not slowly leaking?

    yep, that was in the pics yesterday. Thought for sure that was gonna be the leak.
    All the moisture is under the linoleum and under the wall studs as well.
    The other side of the wall is the spare bedroom/office and it's bone dry.
    Area above the supply line is dry, nothing on the pipe.
    I used my shop vac yesterday and sucked a fair amount out until it no longer seeped, and this morning I could press on the linoleum and it it was back. :notsure:
    There isn't even any condensation on the toilet or anywhere else. The space that's wet is just under a square foot and doesn't seem to be spreading. It's just wet.

    Wonder if the supply line sprays the underside of floor from a tiny crack when under pressure from the moving water after a flush ?

    Maybe don’t use that toilet or tub for 48 hours to see if the wetness goes away?

    the supply line would be under city water pressure all the time.
    I have left the wall open on the other side for the time being, to see what happens.

    Now that the sun is cresting over the horizon a bit earlier, it makes it near blinding when driving east in the morning. Then once on 225 when it finally turns north, I have to turn east again haha

    Hasn't young Brett been recently practicing his heavy equipment skills? Bet he could find that leak licky-split if you let him loose on your place with a bulldozer! :D

    I think that was @teamhypoxia.
    Not opposed to leveling the place and fixing it right.

    Haven't decided if I want to move away from where I'm at or not. Commute isn't bad and I like the area. Plus it's pretty central for places I go
