Got a hotel room in Magdalena for the Friday. We'll be getting pizza and beers at the Golden Spur Saloon the night before.
Probably heading up Mt. Withington on Saturday to camp and then riding bikes Sunday and heading back on Monday.
Piece of crap Toyota front DS ujoint only lasted 335xxx miles on Beastie. Pffft, they need to do better :rofl:
Nothing catastrophic happened, just noticed the looseness while I was doing something else down there.

Welcome Joe. I spent the night at Cebolla mesa between Questa and Taos last sat night. I had to look up Mesa de Cuba and see where it is. Looks like I've driven by the area multiple times, but now I need to hike that area. Thanks for bringing...
You can get on top of the mesa via a Forest Service road north of Cuba, a southward turn onto dirt after the hwy 96 turnoff if you're heading north, right around when the road turns due west. Lots of petrified wood precipitates from the layers...
We oughta come up with a place to camp as a group. Water canyon FS CG isn't too far away, and of course the Gila is nearby. I'm open to ideas!
The tickets are free so grab them up!
Last night. Third night of lights, and so far the best.
Salmon Glacier.
The Bus. Best halibut fish and chips ever.
Arctic Ocean at Tuk. End of the Dempster Highway.
I'm still up here, and won't be home for awhile. I thought I would toss out a tease until I get home.
Bucket List:
1. See the Northern Lights!!!!!! Realistically, this is bucket list boxes 1-100.✅️
2. Dip my toes in the Arctic Ocean. Bucket...
I grabbed two free tickets.

Ever wanted to experience the magnitude of the Very Large Array in-person? Now's your chance!
Please join us at the VLA Fall Open House for a free day of tours and talks on...
Slightly out of where you wanted, but Sichler's farm does roasting, it's just south of Lomas & San Mateo. I prefer their chile, but I like it hot. Also, you can find the fruit basket down on 4th Street, just South of Osuna. They are pretty...
After Ali helped me with the rear springs he educated me on coil spring suspensions. He had two suggestions. First, get skids on the trailing arms. Second, correct the angle on the track bar. As much as I give this fella crap for spending other...
Beefing it up. Was going to order King springs, but thought I'd try this first. I also have an error code for "Abnormal Oil Pressure for Pump" that I need to trace. I've known about that for a while, but I can't ignore it anymore. We bought a...
On a whim I headed down south New Mexico to explore that part of the state that I often neglect. The Enchanted Rockies Trail system is a large network of trails connected to make one beautiful loop around our state, and it starts way down south...
On my two shake down runs in Billy I noticed the camper caused a lot of wind noise. Mostly at the back window. I started looking at options, everything from some kind of deflector on the camper, to a roof rack with a deflector.
From my research...
You don't have to convince us of our anti-Jeep snobbery. We own it. I have some older 4Runners that might be on the 'auction' block soon. I've got 3 of them and planning on downsizing with kids getting married, going off to college. Plus, I'm...
