    Oh, if I may suggest putting a sign at the entrance and the turn off for area bfe? I know I blew past it coming there (and about 10 times that week) and especially in the dark when arriving I had no clue if I was going the right way.

    Thinking about spare parts now. I saved a screenshot of my list on rock auto, is this a pretty reasonable minimum stock of parts?

    I dont have any clue why...but it seemed like at least once a day the whole week driving to camp i blew right past it once i topped the hill, said oh fuck, and flipped around and came back.
    once you know where it is its no problem, but for the first time, at night, and my directions were " go down the dirt road on your left till you see it". it is not right off the main road, you have to drive a little while to actually get to camp, before i climbde the last hill I was sure i was going down the wrong road till space ship adam came around the corner and led me back.

    also if you are arriving at night, dont take the wrong line into camp or you might destroy your truck before you even start lol.

    True. I almost went straight down on the rocks until I realized there was a road leading down on the left side to the lower parking lot.
