I have not been to that place

I’m sure he told you. We went from record drought to non stop rain. I’m in the Palmer/wasilla valley area. I hope you have a great trip and get to see some amazing things.

Update...I finally used the winch! Okay- not for the reason you'd expect, but to move a shed (10x12) in my backyard. If you don't have one, you have to get the pulley block. Between that and a tree...I back the truck into a crazy tight spot going down a steep hill and positioned the winch to...

Well you know Ronald is my older better looking brother. 😀

I ended up making the brush guard out of all metal and scrap. And made my own winch mount. The all metal holes will let me mount the Jack and shovels and stuff easily. I cut the stock 3/8” upright supports then flipped them backwards to rake back. I dropped the side wings by 2.5” and...

I think from what all I’ve read the snatch block is smart no matter what. better slow and out than not The instructions also talk about using a shock bundle. I need to figure out what that is and order one. I may get a much lighter winch to just hook to the rear hitch. As a back up that I...

Due to shipping, delays, and other issues - I'm back to play A - to have a bar built. It won't be as elaborate - but should do the job. Dropped the truck off this morning. I also picked up a winch for it so we can build out a mount. Went with a SuperWinch 10K - I know people argue for 12 K...

I never heard of them before. That’s a nice guard. Looks like shipping to a residential outside of the lower 48 will hurt. My local welder is making a design out of square tubing. We sat down and talked about it. Since nothing on the truck is round. He will try to mimic the hood lines in...

I am dropping the truck at a local welding shop and kicking in a large chunk of hard earned money to have the stock brush guard heavily modified. Will use square tubing. It will go up to tue lift hooks on the hood like the Predator grill guard. Should be able to bolt the Jack and other...

If you use your imagination and close your eyes it tastes like a blue slurpy slushy drink from the corner stop and rob. Actually it just tastes like refreshing God’s country.

By the way. The camera takes away the significance of the inclines. The ramp down on the glacier lake is so steep it is a serious pucker factor x10. The creek you will see is severe approach and depart angle all iced over. Looks easy Peasy in the video but severe in person.

Thanks guys. We got a lot of video. I was too busy today to edit. But the fellow that organized the ride made a great one. Link below. Now that we know how to get there I can go on my own. Will set up camp and spend the night. The Humvee was perfect. Didn’t skip a beat. Rubbed the right...

Excellent off road trail day. Made it to the Knik glacier. Parked the Humvee on the glacier and went exploring with the dogs.
