Nice! I still can't get into the forest anywhere, there's still about 3-4 feet of snow blocking all the access roads!

Todd your scenery probably better than mine, but the day I took the pics it was clear enough to see the mountains in Mexico. Even with the telephoto and the doubler they still came out hazy. Takes a north wind to clear the sky of dust enough to see them well. You can see how dry it is with all the brown between the sotol plants

I'd offer ya some warm temps, but it's Chamber of Commerce weather right now and I don't want to share.

I'll trade you some temps to melt the snow for some rain though. :D

Heed: Thank you and I hope I never need chains down here.

Nice pictures, Andy. Can you provide a closeup of your gasoline tank set up? After now driving my 712 Bloodbox for 1500 kilometer I realize it gets about the same milage as a Unimog 404, with 2/3 fill capacity, and wher I am going in Oktiber all gas counts.

Thanks in advance, Karl

I will get a picture of it, but I am pretty sure it is not what you think it is. The 712 has just the regular Pinz 20 liter tank. What you are seeing is the regular gas can holder with another gas can on top of it that is the source of fuel for the heater.

I will do what I can to get pics of the twin can holder for you, but it might be several days. Stay tuned. :D
