    CDN M101 in Vegas

    The lights are a Big Agnes LED set I picked up at REI. Temps were in the 60s during the day and dropped into the low 50s at night.

    CDN M101 in Vegas

    Camping in the desert in the summer is brutal, but winter camping can be amazing. Headed south of Nelson NV for another weekender. Took a friend with us who was set up in a tent that was a little too small for the cot she borrowed from us. Camp kitchen is a priority for our trips and it’s...

    Hi-Lift: How many people NOT running them?

    I’ve had a Hi-Lift since I got my first Jeep in 2000. It rarely gets used but has been useful. When I got my trailer I mounted it on the side and is always with me on camping trips

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Renewed the registration on my CDN M101 trailer. Thankfully I have an option to renew for 3 years at a pop.

    CDN M101 in Vegas

    I replaced the rear springs with heavier springs which has helped. I also load the trailer so the weight is more balanced. Empty, most of the weight on the trailer is to the front with the tongue box, battery and propane tank.

    We are headed out on Friday for a weekend trip to our spot just south of Nelson NV. Hooked up the trailer and headed out to pick up some firewood for the trip and replenish my stock at home for the fire pit.

    Military Field Desk Jeep JK Cargo Drawer System

    That’s a great repurposing of a useful piece of gear. Makes a great chuckbox and camp kitchen.

    Out fishing with my boy

    My son left in September 2016 for the Army and I miss him every day. As a single dad I made sure I took advantage of every opportunity to spend time together and am so thankful for all the great memories. Be there!

    CDN M101 in Vegas

    Chances are very slim. I doubt there would be enough velocity on anythything you’d kick up from the road to puncture the tank. Having taken my fair share of tanks out to shoot, anything did puncture the tank would simply vent the contents without exploding. The only way I have gotten one to...

    CDN M101 in Vegas

    Installed propane tank. I utilized one pre-drilled hole from where the “handle bar” had been mounted and drilled three more. It’s a little lower than I would’ve liked but doesn’t extend lower than the frame rails and I didn’t have to remove the right front tie-down.

    Smiles per gallon vs. miles per gallon. I’ll take my 15 mpg Jeep over a Prius any day.
