Colorado B.S. Thread

• Thanks everyone! Several volunteers from the Loveland Mountaineers who are recovery experts have stepped up and are willing to be the leads on this. We will let everyone know if more assistance is needed. Thanks again for the responses!
  
  
  
  
  
  

 

I need a new job so bad im slowly bleeding money ... got cust svc experience and my degree is in parks and natural resource management if anyone knows anything. If i cant make something happen in the next couple of months im may have to go hide out at my buddys place in Kearny, NE till I can figure something out.

Determined not to go back to california at any cost, I was unemployed there for a year

(I am currently working but the pay and hours are terrible)

 

I saw the posts from matt glass, and stay the trail. One of them had said wench equipped 4x4s or i would have tried to help on sat.

ha ha ha i should really read the whole thread before posting!!!!

 

The JD2 Model 32 is the beefier version for 100 bucks more. This is the route I'm going and I think most people recommend this one anyway.

You can always upgrade to hydraulic at a later point too...

wish I could go just to watch the recovery and possibly learn a trick or two

 

Yah, I was going to vote for a JD model as well.

 

I need to find out one of my dad's friends still has his hydraulic pipe bender that he isn't using. May be a good thing to "Borrow" on a semi-permanent basis.

 

Just found out he got rid of the pipe bender, only still has a pipe notch cutter.

 

Meh. It was a nice thought anyways.

 

Its been awhile since ive been on here, How is everybody? I dont know if it has been discussed or if its okay to discuss but whats everyones opinion on the aurora theater remembrance invitation to the families of the deceased. If its not ok please ignore the question and i will gladly delete/fix my post.

Good point. Only reason I wanted more details was because if it was over the side or a full sized truck an 8000lb. winch may not do the trick. It would suck to go all the way up there to recover it only to be under equipped.

Check the City of Littleton site for jobs and also South Suburban parks and recreation sites. They contract all of the parks and open space work for Littleton, Centennial, and I believe possibly Highlands Ranch. I am willing to be they are preparing for Spring already.

What's up tacoless.

Notch cutter would be good too. Is he selling it? In regards to the tube bender I currently do not need one so I will leave it up to you "experts" to figure out which one to buy. If you need someone to pitch in to cover the final cost I could probably do that. Storing it could be with whomever needs it first.

 

Looks good man. I need to get up after Sunday I'm off for 8 days. I don't know how many days my wife works though. I need to get some turns in so I can get better at tele skiing.

 

Hey guys, Looking for a winch. I want a good one, but I don't have tons of money to spend, and I'm not sure what capacity of winch my bumper can handle (its custom made). I think anything less than 8k pounds isn't really useful for a truck, especially a limo like mine.
Been trying to watch CL and saw this one today, but I don't know what kind of winch this is, or if the price is good
