I learned the hard way how to fix that s***.

 

[rkymtnflyfisher]

More to come.

As usual, the more you dig, the more you find.

 

[TheHardWay]

She-it, Bro, you're a welder - you got this!

I’d just pack it with some Ramen and Bondo and spray it green.

Yalls killin' me with this kinda thing.

Nice fish, though. That IS a well-fed West Slope. Glad someone got a Summer

 

[rkymtnflyfisher]

Good enough for now.


I sanded, wire wheeled down to se bare metal, shot some rust converter around in the areas I could not clean, primed, lathered some body filler in a small hole, primed again, and again.

I'll probably top coat with something simple from a rattle can soon.

The rear seat came out today and a box went in its place.


Just in time to load it full of gear for tomorrow.

I'm going fishing at a special place, crystal clear water, cutthroat that eat dries, and no roads.

That's a gorgeous valley.

Sucks as a retirement location though

Yeah, tell all the old folks moving here to retire that!

You mean some of them aren’t moving to Florida? I would have never guessed.

Did you you get snow out this last system, looks like it stayed in the higher elevations.

Nothing on the valley floor that stuck around, I'd say the snow level is 4,500-5,000 ft right now, valley floor is around 3,500-3,800. I did hear from some guys antelope hunting a valley or two over that woke up with 8" of fresh powder at their camp, definitely at a higher elevation.

10-4, my place is south of West at 6,050 and we picked up about 4" on the ground, a couple of places nearby saw quite a bit more.
