No, moving to Missoula MT. I'll be 8 hours away instead of 14. :fsj:

I would be honored if you drove 8 hours to join in on one of my trips. I just hope it would be worth it for you....

There is a trip planned for mid-June. 4 days and it is in closer to you, South central Idaho. http://forum.expeditionportal.com/threa ... 15-18-2017

I also started a facebook page to keep trips separate from my home page. https://www.facebook.com/SWIdahoOverlan ... page_panel

I hope to have my Jeep up and running again next month. It is a lot more fun to drive than my Durango.

Hope to see you soon. George.

It would be more than worth it, I don't know what my schedule will be but having someone else to explore with makes the drive worth it. I wont be set up till probably August though.

Sounds good. I should have some trips for after that too. We do a camp trip usually in late August-September. It is not a all day drive, but the drive in is interesting and keeps most people out. Fishing is good and there is a warm springs to get into that is world class...

If you like fishing and hanging out in warm springs it is a lot of fun. Mostly small mouth bass there, but at times you can not keep the hook in the water. Usually we leave on a Friday morning and return on Sunday. This year may be a 4 day trip though. Just that relaxing.

Looks like a fun day. Sad to hear on that same day a 20 year old kid died after a fall at Jump Creek, I was out hiking around there the weekend before. Hard to do Initial Point justice, such a breathtaking view from that plateau. Been a few years since I've visited it. How far from there was the ladder leading down into the cave? Those photos were great!

Thanks. The cave is about 3 miles away.

I am working on getting the wiring repaired on the Jeep now. I got some done today, but realized I missed ordering a brown 16 ga wire. Another week till I get that. Hope to get it back together next week or the week after.

Then I need to get a lift. I just put 33x10.5x15 tires and wheels on. Looks great, but I am afraid they will rub at flex.

Currently meeting up with one person in Boise, one in Hammett, and one in Glens Ferry. Anyone else is welcome to join in. Don't have to be driving a Jeep.
