    If you are going on leg 1 or 2, I'll have a couple of fly rods with me so you can give it a shot. Just gotta buy a WY out of state license.

    Out of state licenses are expensive, but I could probably swing one for a couple days. I will be on leg 2 at the least.

    That is a good idea. I would just as soon learn on the water where there is at least a chance if fooling something into biting :)

    Go for it. Lots of places to fish on this trip.

    Just bring a lisence. You could maybe get away with it for leg One. No way for leg two. Patrolled heavily for fishing.

    Nah ill pass still :p

    13k is a tough place to walk haha

    :cool:

    Shoshone is supposed to be awesome fishing the rangers told us. Decent at Christina. Shoshone will be the place.

    Maybe ill get my dad to bring the inflatable boat thing we have for that leg...

    Ill try and bring the boat..maybe..

    Fuck yea. Fly tossing is the shit. Though I'm not that good at it haha

    :woot:

    Bad ass man!! Great to have you along :D

    Means we can do a cool CVT photo in leg one haha should have 5 maybe 6 tents.

    And are you set on driving up Morrison??

    I'll have 2 of my packrafts with me, so when we get to any of the lakes all of you are more than welcome to use them to get out on the lake and paddle.

    I doubt I'll be driving up Morrison. I'm not entirely sure I will make to Red Lodge for Lisa's departure either. I may just wind up hooking up with you guys somewhere on the trail to Goose lake. There are a few other lakes off of that trail that I want to hike to and fish. I'll solidify plans as it gets closer and let you know for sure.

    from the videos of it, it looks about the same...... just going up instead of down. we shall see.

    i wasn't really too worried about it but it just makes me feel better about rocks flipping up. wasn't a great feeling when i did that without skids. now when i hear the scraping sound i smile instead of cringe

    You have a diff skid?? That's what I was praying I wish I had when I was in lander..which I did..just..not installed haha

    And interesting..the turns are the same huh?? Looks worse for turning on Morrison but height is worse in blackbear...


    Guess we will find out :D

    Hey Jason. You gonna bring the box rocket rack? Or your new one?? Seen a few with their tents up over the topper and they don't like it...so curious as to what you'll run.

    no diff skid :eek: i still want to build one but it's been put on the back burner in leu of the trailer right now (kinda backwards when you think about it but oh well)

    well, some of the turns look similar but then again.... videos/ pictures can be deceptive little bastards. (ex- z-turn on moab rim is way different in person)

    Pic NEVER show the reality haha so deceptive..haha

    And hmmmm...well..if you want real security I'd highly recommend that. That's what I was dragging a TON last year. I was wanting Jon's 35s more then ever lol

    Belly was fine. But the LCAs and diff and front skid took a beating. Lots of scars there now.




    Also I'd like to ask everyone that is attending to ask if you have working CBs??

    :pray:

    Well that's good. Long as it's close to last time. Still a good mile or so. Should be fine.

    Co is the only place where having 2+ miles range will be nice.
