Research Glacial Lake Missoula and the ice age floods before you come, absolutely fascinating seeing some of the scale of the features it left. Here's a couple shots of Moses Coulee when I was coming back from a work trip on Highway 2 last winter.

I was north of Almira WA today working on a school bus. Eastern WA is beautiful in the spring. I snapped a picture of a very old barn, the bus supervisor with me said his family used to run cows out of it.

I'd be looking at eastern OR and WA for April. Should be decent weather and stuff will be green unlike summer. Some of the higer elevation backroads might be snowed in still but the main roads will be fine. If you like geology and lava you'll be in paradise.

I've seen that before but it's been awhile.

I've installed TruTracs in a few customer's rigs, they are probably the best all around non selectable lockers and work awesome in daily drivers. That picture of the Toyota 3 liter brings back memories, I made a lot of money doing head gaskets on those back in the day.

I just signed up. I'm only able to do part of it from WY to eastern OR.

Definitely have a plan b ready for summer. I'm here in N ID near the Canadian border and the closure keeps getting extended.

How did you get your wife to be ok with you having a hot chick share your sleeping bag? My wife uses me to cuddle up too and get warm when it's cold.

They sent me one for "free" with my paper map order.

A TJ is a new Jeep! I have some older Jeeps and Internationals. Here's a picture one of my M715s.

I got the paper maps and GPS for WY, ID, and the Pacific spur last week from Sam. The paper map says Yellowstone Park is 100 miles north of where the TAT crosses the ID/WY border. Still working on figuring out the GPS on Gaia as I'm new to it. Hopefully I can tag along for the WY, ID, and...

I'm over in Post Falls and have worked on 80s and 90s Toyota rigs quite a bit. As said check your grounds and also your power connections. Does your 4runner have a tach? Is it showing any RPM when cranking? Have you checked spark?

Bring a beanie and a set of warmer clothes just in case. It can snow any month of the year in Yellowstone and Glacier and will most likely be cooler than you are used too.

Like you I've used CB for years and that's what I have. I did get my ham license this year but don't have a radio.

On your rollcage are the windshield latches and window handles still accessible and functional? Got any close ups of how you ran the tubing by them?

Sweet, thanks for sharing. I'm over on the zone too and followed your build. Want to see some more close ups of your winch bumper. For hauling M715s on trailers try running a small ratchet strap across the front of the hood from frame rail to frame rail, it helps keep the hood very secure.

Got a question. Once you do get the gps tracks and the departure date set do you think you will have a better idea of when you will be doing certain portions of the TAT? I think 2021 will the year I start doing electronic maps and gps magic.

Every time I have driven the highline to and from work in ND I see the sign for Bearpaw and think how close they were to Canada and making it to freedom.

I just ordered the Pacific Spur, WY, and ID maps from Sam. I actually spent some time working down near Baggs WY the winter and spring of 2019 and have probably driven a small part of the TAT in a Ram 5500 service truck for work.

Yeah the drive out in the flatty would be long, if you do take it definitely try to take 2 lane highways. I'm definitely interested in the WY section and west if 2021 is better than 2020.
