    Peax Solace 15 sleeping bag Review forthcoming

    The good folks at Peax and Rokslide have provided me with a Solace 15 bag to review. https://www.peaxequipment.com/products/solace-15-sleeping-bag Received the bag today, so a just a few casual observations. I put it on my scales (two different scales) and get 2 lbs 5 oz for the weight (the...

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    Yeah I do all that, also change the MT fluid and plugs, but @ 30k (oil at 5k probably overkill too as it's syn)—I think I'll skip plugs next time they always look good. I've got a new serpentine belt, but haven't gotten around to changing it- looks like more of pita than other trucks.

    Small Backpack for hiking

    The SO Merlin is pretty small and only weighs 12 oz. Spectra fabric so you get basically a waterproof pack as well. https://seekoutside.com/merlin-daypack-talon/

    Seek Outside Silverton 2300 internal sheet daypack

    Yeah definitely in the same niche- decent sized daypack with an internal frame, but can also be attached to a hauler frame. At some point I'll probably get my hands on one and can compare/contrast the two.

    14 miles mountain biking with my wife (gave Tiny Elvis the day off :D)- going to be sore tomorrow—biking definitely hits the muscles a little differently and my a$$ will be sore for sure!

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    It does- they added a leaf to the rear springs and said they'd keep an eye on the frame, so far it's fine. Montana is a no salt state in the winter, so guessing that helps.

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    Is the 4Runner going to the 4cyl/turbo as well? I like the looks of the 4Runner, but having a bed definitely comes in handy. When I got my 12 there wasn’t a white double cab MT in the country, had to order it. Sad to see vehicles go away from MTs-I’ve never owned an automatic (had a couple as...

    Stone Glacier Tokeen 2600 day pack review (forth coming)

    I haven't tried one out, but have handled one in their store. The Kiowa has more external organization and more volume overall. The Kiowa has a more substantial belt and iirc, the shoulder strap are a little more heavily padded as well. Larger volume too. The Tokeen is lighter with the more...

    wolf management debate

    If you have a ballot initiative (like a lot of states have) in regards to wildlife, I'd want as many as those folks in the middle that I could muster on my (our) side

    5 miles (700') with my wife and Tiny Elvis- 60 degrees, felt like 80- Spring isn't even over and I'm ready for Fall—Tiny Elvis too! :)

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    Not this year definitely, but possibly a year maybe two (2025/26). We're going to be doing a fair bit of traveling in the relatively near future, just the peace of mind with a new vehicle over one that will be 13-14 years old.

    Ooops- mine is the 4.0 then (2012), not crazy torquey, but pretty good-especially with the 6 speed MT

    How does your job prepare you for the mountain?

    40+ years ago I was a sawyer in Northwest Montana, did this for 4-5 years (paying for college). Carrying a chainsaw up and down mountains everyday whips you into pretty good shape. When hunting season rolled around, elk/deer hunting wasn't very hard—well except for packing quarters out on...
