just to clarify and throw my pals under the bus...I showed up late that night. no stop for me in gwood. I'll be sure to call out when I'm through again. Also, I couldn't hit any CConnection repeaters.

Wow Shawn, just wow.. great pictures. Yeah you too Perry... looks like a great time for sure, jealous.

 

[CardinalFJ60]

cold...yeah...

most nights were in the teens. most noticable at camp with snowcover (obviously)...but everyone was prepared and made nice fires.

this is my setup. made a flip out platform - worked quite well.

Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing. Question? What kind of heater is that your using in your rig?

 

[CardinalFJ60]

northern tool special

it's a knockoff of the mr. buddy heater. on low it kicked out too much het that close to the headliner. I'd kick it on the morning and move it often. in 5min it was nice

Lets plan one!

Anyone else see the irony of a heater sitting on an electric cooler.

 

[CardinalFJ60]

Lol!

yes!! that IS funny. "cool, my batteries are still at 12.8 after 'runing the fridge' all night"

Awesome pics Shawn! Glad those flares worked out.

Sorry for the delay in posting pics. While downloading anti-virus software, I got a virus.
