    The batteries are very well sealed. I highly doubt they would be compromised. The rest of the vehicle is basically one giant computer though. Ever drop you smart phone in the water? Yeah.

    Miss the old sign...only a matter of time until this is defaced by humans who need their ego stroked. I am happy to see that it clearly states no OHV past the sign.

    I've never understood the sign thing. Especially close to any sort of road.

    I noticed (new to me) graffiti on signs and structures at north and south passes on this last trip. Took photos but no need to post them up. Big bummer...some people really suck.

    Well, no feds broke down my door, so my last trip went OK.

    Poor DV, I want to go there now but. I'm not THAT stupid.
    But what the hell would I do? A shovel is hardly the help they need.

    So what shall we do? I'd say clear your calendar for late october,, say around the 22nd we will meet at PS campground and plan from there.

    Time for a TW meet

    I wish. I'm likely going to be stuck working 10-on 2-off in Humboldt for most of the month, unfortunately. Planning on doing a 395 trip the first weekend of November, though, so at least there's that.
