    The Other Black Rifle...

    The Other Black Rifle… I have a confession to make…please don’t heap scorn upon me…I don’t own a semi-auto rifle. Gasp…I know… that’s pretty lame but there it is. Thought about picking one up, shot quite a few but in the end I was like…meh. As putting game on the table is my prime reason for...

    Complete Overland Journal Set for Trade or Barter..

    After having subscribed to the Overland Journal from the start I have just received the last issue of my subscription. Now it's time to clear their spot on the library shelf. Instead of putting them out to pasture I thought somebody here on the Portal might want them. They have no monetary...

    Thinking about upgrading the Mouser

    I've been thinking about doing an upgrade on our LJ, the Grey Mouser. He’d been a bonny rig over the last four years, but I’d like to address a few nagging issues that have developed over the years. Bear in mind that this Jeep is not intended to be hardcore trail machine, but instead a...

    Tell me about Native Watercraft hybrid boats?

    I've started looking for a single seat boat. Something I could throw on the rack easily and go puddle about for an afternoon or go do an overnight trip. Don't need anything fancy, I just want an occasional use boat. We have a couple of great canoes but they're not really one man friendly. I...

    A new rack for my LJ

    I've been wanting a rack. Just something I could throw a stepladder on for work or to throw a canoe on top for a days paddle. I didn't need one for an RTT or to haul tons of gear. For two people the Mouser (our Jeep) has plenty of room inside and when it's the whole gang we press the Tundra...

    2010 Elk Renedezvous: Of Elk and Nuclear Reactors.

    Some ExPo meets are all about traversing deep into the backwoods to get away from civilization. Some are adventure trips where canoes, hiking or spelunking are the draw, some are just friendly get togethers to BS with friends. This one is all about the critters… The end of summer and...

    1st Gen Tundra/T-100 bed dimensions

    I'm just wondering how similar the 1st generation Tundra bed dimensions are compared to that of a T-100. From a distance they look pretty close, but not having messed with a T, I'm just guessing. The reason I'm wondering is 'cause I'm in the middle of dealing on a nice T for my daughter's...

    Cape Lookout 2009: TundraBirds Go!

    Last fall was a mad house. Between the rotten weather and the “mission creep” on consecutive log home jobs I was falling behind schedule. The Expo East crew had planned a trip to Cape Lookout on the Core Banks of North Carolina, but when the dust settled, all but one had to pull out. Me...
