    it is free, it adds a little button to every thing you look at on Amazon to say, This is $32.12 cheap from the seller. Sometimes the switch is worth it, sometimes it isn't. It looks at shipping, taxes, and actual item price to show you. They say something about cash back when you shop certain sites, but I never looked into that.

    On some sites, like black rifle coffee it will try every coupon code is has heard to try and get you the best deal.

    You can also have it track items in your wishlist, so if the price drops on one, you get an email. This feature is dangerous. But they did a flash sale on a blackstone grill and saved almost 50% because of the alert.

    You would definetly need the biggest one for those. I think it would work pretty good. I use the hornady solution and mix it 4/1 or 6/1 but you don't have to buy their expensive stuff. There is other cheaper cleaners you can use. I just cannot think of them off the top of my head right now. Will check what other people have used if I have some time at work today.

    Was thinking about camping out of state last week of June, since fire restrictions, but at this point if I’m going to drive 700 miles, might as well just fly up to my aunts lake house at Donner Lake. Would rather go to June Lake, but pretty sure I can get a free flight too, so just have to rent a car for a few days

    Don't have any experience on the North Rim, heading there in late August.
    I was in Zion last month and stayed at the Watchman campground that is inside the park. It was ok as it is an established campground and had easy access to the trails and shuttle. I did the scenic UT9 drive both ways through the park and it was worth the drive since I have never been there. Also took Kolob terrace road up to Lava point and did some hiking. That was far the best hiking as I saw very few people. The drive is scenic and there are trails along the way. Cool lookout point at Lava point with picnic tables for a nice lunch if you want. There was not a lot of parking up there but the campground was closed at the time so not many people headed that way.
    Took the back way home through Hurricane and 89A and made many stops for pics. I also stopped at Lee's Ferry which was cool. That was the first time up in that area for me, have been in Moab mtn biking but never further west. Zion was amazing and planning on heading back in the near future and will add Bryce Canyon to the trip.

    So I did this trip 2 years ago on memorial day weekend and due to fire restrictions I'm repeating this year. Depending on your activity needs will dictate itinerary.

    This year were going to do either whawheep point or locust. Locust is located at a midpoint on the north rim trail; if you're into mtb'ing it's a good location. Point sublime doesn't have any type of activities so if you're just looking to hangout it's a good spot but it's also a known spot.

    This year we haven't decided if we're mtb'ing or hiking yet so keeping our options open.

    Either way, make sure you stop at Jacobs lake and pick up a pie and a bunch of cookies, trust me on this.

    House rock valley road is another cool area which you can take back and then cruise through Vermillion cliffs area. If you're into hiking make sure to check out White Pocket, it's the backside of the wave with similar formations but no permit lottery. If you want to continue up house rock valley Rd, it will connect back to 89 but it's about 2-3 hrs on a caliche Rd (don't attempt if theres any chance of rain).

    If you want to go farther north, there's cotton wood canyon Rd, it's the back way into cannondale->Bryce canyon. Really cool red Rock formations and there's a couple of cool sites along the way. If you're a hiker, check out hackberry canyon. If not then just take your time working your way up to southern Utah (I think you're technically in Grand staircase for a good part of this drive). Road is also caliche so don't attempt when wet or rain in the forecast.

    Any other questions just give me a pm

    Tldr: pick your activities and the itinerary will follow

    No, it was pretty easy actually. I'm not a carpenter or woodworker by any stretch of the imagination. Just built a base out of 2x4s needed a little more to level it out with the notch that was cut out for the floor. Added a 1/4 inch piece of ply wood to level and then topped it with a 1/4 inch piece of Burch plywood. So sturdy now. I used a mieter saw and a skill saw. Screwed it all together with some metal brackets on the 2x4s.
