Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

I have a PreRunner and still make it out to a few trips a year. Most spots are accessible, harder trails are day trips, but the camp spots are generally easy to get to.

Just get out, meet dudes, give back to the community and you’ll be fine. Don’t let the bigger builds intimidate you. It’s a community, you get what you give. Everyone starts somewhere. It’s how you handle yourself that can isolate you.

 

this pic cracks me up.....lmao. i couldn't get out of it to pee from the looks of it..

 

Lmaoooo

“Hey bugs in the night.. please bite what you see fit”

 

Can’t do it. @Bentrodder put me in something like that once and wouldn’t let me out. Traumatized me for life.

 

It just looks like a bear burrito...i would freak when i couldn't move my arms...

 

Really good. Very hoppy/juicy and not overly bitter.

A friend of mine has been singing praise for this brewery for years and I finally tried some. I’m a fan!

 

last garage sale haul...80 bucks for all of it. And a xl dog crate.

 

I have a pair of these. Mine are silver. They seem pretty well made. Thinking about getting another pair.

Hmm, added to my list of stuff to buy. Can always use those.

 

Then why do i see it in your tent only when @Bentrodder is around. Hmmm. “Just in case” my ass.

 

Looking at this. Not sure how I feel about the entire tent actually being a mesh wall with a topper over the whole thing.

anyone have experience with tents like that?

 

Thats most of rei's tent. I slept in a nasty rain in a campdome 4 in October last year with the rain fly. Warm and dry. Son slept in a campdome 2.5 same thing, warm and dry. But i will recommend get the footprint.

 

newb to this so sorry for a stupid question but why is the footprint recommended?

Is it just a tarp to go in the ground under the tent?

 

If it was cold out you’d learn to like it real quick. Ive woken up deer hunting wishing I had a sleeping bag like that.

 

Holy shit. I’d kill myself in a -20F bag. I have a -5F and it’s almost useless even in the winter... so freaking hot!

My wife likes it though.

 

Its matched to tent, keeps the floor from getting messed up and separates you from ground a lil. Like insulation. Main thing, you wont poke holes in your floor

 

Yes. It’s fits the tent though usually so it weighs less then a full tarp. Saves wear and tear on the tent.

 

im a body heater bro I’m right there with you.

Give me some good blankets and I’m good to go.

 

Beat me to it!
