    Too many to list, and I've probably forgotten a bunch.
    Normally, I agree. But anyone who would go up that ravine to do Stupid Shit is going to be one of the most physically fit, mentally strong 'idiots' I've ever seen. I suppose they exist, but I've never come across one.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Well…I’m racing in one week for Ultra4. We doing race car prep shit this weekend.

    If any of you degenerates want to point at me and laugh about all the terrible mistakes I made in my life, now is the time. Beer and BBQ provided. Starting late Saturday morning. Side message me if ya feel froggy.

    So I pulled the lat/lon out of that post after thinking about it more. I still think the odds of any mouth breather heading up there and ruining stuff are 0.0%, but I understand the sentiment.

    Now I'm gonna ask - anyone here know of any hike-in mines they want to share via PM? Anything you can drive/ride to is picked over/shot up and that pretty much ruins the experience. The one I saw last week had most of the relics intact (and left behind by us, mind you). I'd love to get to one with an old ore cart still intact on the track - bonus if it's an old wooden one.

    This last one, someone got the anvil out of there (can't imagine the effort required), but a lot of the old hand tools were still there next to the old forge, waiting to be repaired (mostly chipped and broken single jacks). Just left in place, waiting to be heated up and reworked into useful tools.

    I kinda want to try rope as a traction device. I bet it works well, but doesn't last very long.

    Im out in Spanish springs and recently found out the dirt work they have been doing across the street is for apartments. How many apartments do we really need here. Just venting but, my view will now be into peoples apartments. :mad:

    That sucks man. I agree, every available slot, as thick as they can fit them. I understand maximizing return but I wish there was a quality of life filter applied.

    Happening out here too. County commissioners just rezoned a bunch of land for apartments. "wE NeEd cHeApEr HoUsInG", but in the same breath they say it's going to be "nice, upscale, $1200+ a month, so it's not bad.":censored:

    "Excellent condition"

    Don't low ball him brah, he knows what he has!

    Shit, that thing has more miles and scratches than my 2010. And my interior is immaculate. No driver side piss stains or anything. I'll be posting mine today for $45k. Comes with a leaky CV boot and noisy AF steering rack. :headbang:
