    So I got all the door handles and mirrors off. But I think I messed up. I can't open my rear doors from the inside or outside right now.... This is no good...

    I've been out commercial fishing but am back and will be camping out on the Kasilof Saturday night. Doing a bit of dip netting with friends. I'll be the silver taco with the miss-matching blue topper... styling!

    Call the junkyards see if they have any. If not i know they can get one for about 100 bucks. But also check with kendall cuz the mirrors werent actually a bad price and the ones the recycling places order are aftermarket and not the same on the inside

    That's my plan, or I'll just order a replacement.

    That's where we were with quads which barely got through. I don't know exactly where we were at since it was my first time there but there was some deep water crossings.

    Thanks guys, I'll check that place out.

    We hiked the Crow Creek pass yesterday (not all of it, we only made it about 5 miles in, then turned around). It was an awesome hike! There were signs of a bear attack but it was a lot father up the trail than we went. We did see a really big black bear though. Fortunately, it was down in a valley and we were a couple hundred yards up a steep slope. We visited the Wildlife Refuge, it was nice but definitely touristy. It was cool to see all the animals we normally wouldn't be able to see up here. The wedding we were in town for was yesterday so I'm nursing a hangover today :)
