    I needs to be tighter to eliminate some shakes but all in all I'm satisfied with a 20 min project from stuff I had laying around the house. How does Gavin have his shovel mounted on the rails anyone know? That could be handy for some off to the side views. Tomorrow I'll post some screen shots from today's test run.

    I mounted the shovel with Quick Fists http://www.cabelas.com/jacks-tools-quick-fist-piece-rubber-clamp-3.shtml

    Not sure if they would work for a GoPro. I think the suction cup mount will be your best bet for a nice stable shot. My father law has his mounted on his Rhino using the suction cup mount and it holds very well! He takes it everywhere and it has never failed.

    I gave in Sunday afternoon and completely cleaned my truck while it was pouring down rain. I removed the front skid plate as it was caked with the mud. As for the frame I used a pressure washer and literally layed under the truck and fired away! Hahaha! Got some funny looks from the neighbors...

    I think Big Meadows would be a nice area. There are plenty of trails directly near the campsite including the Sandpit and Hume Lake is less than 10 miles away. Plus we can check out the Buck Rock Lookout.

    Swwet, time for some trail footy. You can try sports chalet for suction cups since they sell the contour hd there.

    I need to do this...with safety glasses of course.

    Been to Hume lake a couple of times. But I don't think there is any good fishing spot unless I missed something. But the last time my family camp there we had to leave in the middle of the night because a bear was thrashing the trash bin and we only had tents while others there had trailers. Really scary after I sober up. LoL.

    Here was the trophy fish of the day :D

    j/k man...I don't fish much but I've heard the streams leading into Hume are good fishing spots.

    i will show you guys where to fish in hume lake, it's right where the stream comes in to the lake, i have fished there alot and have always caught good sized trout, as for bid meadows, this time of year there is a stream that runs right behind the campground, last year when i was hunting in september i caught about 10 fish in one afternoon, i think we should do maybe a weekend trip, maybe one night...

    I even tried fishing up in heather lake I believe it's called that. It's was like a 3 mile hike up. Got nothing there not even a bite. Hell, hikers were looking at us like bunch of wierdos. I was fishing at Hume lake but it was right where the church camp is.

    Beefcake, you need to hook me up with directions!

    it's not that hard, but i've always fished at hume where the creek runs into it, right by sandy cove, it's really easy to get to when ten mile is open, but since the time of year it is closed due to snow so you'll have to go around the back way, but you should still be able to get there, i can also show you where they stock the fish at hume...

    ok so i got the new tailights on, i opted against the third brake light for not, because it has led lights in it and has to be hard wired in, it is not plug and play like the tails, im not sure how i feel about these yet, looking for a second opinion... let me know what you think
