Dead Man's Pass

You don't carry your own air tools?

That's some classic PackRat stuff right there. He's ready for anything. That's how he garnered his moniker.

I don't have a tire impact gun on here, but I do have a 1/2" and a 3/4" impact & lots of sockets. A couple other tools too, maybe.

Ha, yeah my little 1/4 threader but no air tools yet. Have connections and all but I think I can get away with electric for the majority of the tasks needed.

Currently the trailer is jacked up on one side so he can fanangle out the airbag correctly (maybe?). I'll be building my own mud flap at the TA Carlisle PA after this.

Looking forward to Lombardi's truck stop on 95 in Jersey tomorrow if anyone else is sliding in there for a 10! Maybe not a great place to hike like OP is doing today but I'll get a few good pics of the skyline or something.

Old school is right again. All part of the game, so find that silver lining whenever you can!

If you’re near 10 Mile River take advantage and go for a casual hike anyway because it’s so beautiful there. My Dad lives up there so we go hiking and kayaking pretty often. it’s so worth it.

Ugh your poor teeth and kidneys.

But good on you making your own adventure! Oregon is great this time of year. I'm in PA on side of road waiting for a tire and air bag replacement. Gotta make New York City tomorrow with only 6 hours on my 70.

Although a hike would make me all sweaty and nasty...I guess pros and cons to each situation.

Needed that bull on the way out!! It will be ok I don't drink sodas mostly tea and water occasionally bull on active days. Turned into a Bush whack mile 4 so didn't make river. Still fun though. It started sleeting on way out while sun was shining mountains micro climates are crazy.

Awesome!.

Thanks for sharing.

Ugh the techs impact wrench just FELL APART, killing me smalls...

Hope tomorrow is a better day for you Spaceman.

Thanks ! Can't wait to slide west again, back into some mountains and drier air like you're in.

Hope you get a chance to check out the dark sky tonight, debris of Haley's comet should be a good show all this week.

Pfffft no wonder, those c/p 1inch guns have always sucked since the 80's lol by the looks of it, hasn't been oiled in eons either.... My Ingersol Rand 1/2 impact will remove them logs easy. And almost torque em down to specs reinstalling em too.

I just got some my cheapo tools right now basic wrenches,screw drivers, pliers HAMMER, lol etc.... none of my Snap -On stuff ,,,,even though 1/4 drive sockets etc would be nice now n then. Deal with that maybe once assigned my tractor at new job soon....
