    If anyone is looking for a good little car we are selling my fiance's rav4: https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/6182508145.html

    It's not perfect but with a little bit of work it would be a great first car/ commuter. I drove it for several weeks after I flopped the runner and it wasn't bad at all.

    You're still married. :notsure:
    In my experience that's how most marital compromises work.

    What's happening? Sunday I'm free and I think I'm actually going to Vedauwoo Monday so that would work well.

    Also need some trail clearing on farwell, which could be run just before Ellis. Directed Tim there, but he couldn't get through.

    Just a couple things
    I guess this is where the EAF chainsaw comes into play. But I will say, this should be an answer to those who say theyd rather have a hand saw, because they work just as well, than a chainsaw to clear trails.

    You want to cut through that 24" diameter tree, and then the one behind it, and then the twelve others you find further down the trail with a hand saw? I'll watch.

    I don't go anywhere here anymore without my chainsaw. All the trails look like this in the spring. If you wait for the FS to clear them, you won't ever wheel them. Also twice now I've gone down an out and back trail, and had a tree in the road on the way out. You need a saw up here with how the beetle kill is falling.

    If you must carry a hand saw, you could get something like this:

    I've heard excellent things about Silky. I have a little fiskars I carry in the pack when I don't have the chainsaw on the motorcycle, and it's a workout to cut anything bigger than a few inch diameter, but does get you though in a pinch.

    Stuff and junk and things...

    Pfft! Milwaukee brushless sawzall with 9.0 batteries for life! (maybe)

    So 300 yards before the pic @Squeaky Penguin posted a quad cut just enough for him to fit. I cut it with the sawzall and drug it back to get buy and make it to camp last night. Cue Brett with a pic from the day before!

    Works great. Have used it a ton for BC ski trails in the spring.

    Would take the whole season to clear it enough to wheel a few miles. :(
