September POTM - FJ55TLC

[fj55tlc]

Heading out to the South Dakota Pig Party.

Talked the dear wife into coming along this year.

Made it into Wyoming in good time for a heavy 48 year old truck.

She's enjoying the drive so far.

Historic downtown Torrington, Wyoming.

Been there a long time ago in another life. Doesn’t look like much has changed.
See you tomorrow.

We had a great time at the Pig Party 2021. Here are some highlights:

Here we are at Crazy Horse.

Reno Gulch Road.

Thomson Canyon Road.

Campsite for the first night in the Black Hills just across the border into Wyoming so that we could have a campfire.

We stopped at some salt mines. That was interesting and fun. Almost needed 4wd.

Top of Castle Peak where the use to be a fire lookout station.

 

[fj55tlc]

We split off and went exploring on our own on our way home.

We went to the Vinegar Hill Cemetery at the historic mining town of Galena, South Dakota.

We stopped in Deadwood, South Dakota for awhile. Parked right in downtown at the visitors center. Fit right in.

Stopped at Devil's Tower on our way.

I have liked how Gordobe has ammo cans mounted on his front bumper. So I mounted my ammo can to my swing away. It's tight but fits very well.

I figured it was time to replace the clutch master and slave, so I did. Pedal feel is way better. I used this so I don't offend Jmack:

Want pictures as soon as you use that rear winch!

 

[fj55tlc]

I should. I usually don't remember to have a camera going when those situations arise.

i want to do similar with my rear swing out.. ive got an ammo can for all my recovery gear and makes sense to have it out and accessible..

I see one of you pickup that free trailer you passed by at 1:05. Good score, haha.

 

[fj55tlc]

That belongs to our trail leader. Pretty slick camping set up.

Took the guys from work adventuring. Doing what the cruiser does best.
