No, this is the Strike Valley in Capitol Reef. Picture is taken from the Strike Valley overlook in Upper Muley Twist canyon. Take good binoculars. It's pretty impressive in person.

Love that sticker, CD license plates !
I worked at the US Embassy in Mali for 2 years and had the truck with me over there so we had CD plates and never took them off when we got back to the US in North Carolina we are only required to have rear plates so we kept the CD on the front.
I don't know if this is a common problem but I can tell you that these two Harbor Freight jewels don't work well together. Landcruiser to the rescue once again.

Sounds like you could join the staff of HF engineers.
...the mother of necessity. My brother was always my ballast when we plucked engines. And dad said he wasn't good for anything.

They wouldn't pay him nearly enough.
After a fun afternoon and some shooting we had a sweet sunset. A buddy of mine (black tacoma in the vid I posted earlier) is an incredible photographer. I hung around with him while he was taking sunset pictures and became his impromptu model 
Did you happen to work there in 2012?
Bought another thing to throw money at...
Next step. 4 pin trailer pigtail!!
Towed it across the island with no lights. There were also no wires on the trailer to the lights so that's a wee issue too.
Also. New wheel bearings, I have think they've been lubricated exclusively with salt water for the last 20 years.
Weighs a whopping 256 lbs. Thnik I need airbags and a second tranny cooler? Ha.

No I left in 2011
Ah, ok. That was a good time to leave, I think. The first 6 months of 2012 were pretty interesting in Bamako.
Yeah was an interesting time for sure.
Made .250 - .375 adjustments to my bump stops and shock spacers since going to J springs looking for a little more articulation. My goal is to hit the one tire up 32" and all others on the ground so far my present set up is good at 30.5"

I was curious from one of your previous post where you mentioned shock spacers. This is exactly what I had pictured in my mind.Made adjustments to my bump stops and shock spacers since going to J springs looking for a little more articulation.

No cool mods to offer as I've been in training on and off for the last month but Monday's are part of my "weekend" so I'm counting today's milestone. While driving around getting essentials for the nor'easter headed our way, i.e. beer & chips, I noticed my odometer at exactly 170K. Not a world record by any stretch, but a PR for any vehicle I've ever owned. Hope to put the next 170K on myself or at a minimum within the family.
Also cleaned out the rear slider window tracks when I noticed some water inside both after blowing off winter gunk at the car wash. I learned that having the windows closed greatly increases the likelihood the inside stays dry.
