Sad chit ..only got a inch of snow here...my 800 rmk is pizzed off !
Nice pics Tikka.




Last Tuesday we put about 30-40 miles on the SxS while doing the annual range monitoring check on our BLM lease.



Windy and cold, had the heater on full blast most of the day, even the dingo was being a puzzy!

Yep, Im' pretty sure I hate you. You did kinda offer me a cot space in your garage once & I've since seen pics of your garage.

Be vewwy vewwy careful what you offer. Got beer?

All kidding aside, great pics as usual.

More awesome. Thanks Tikk

This pic......had my 10-18mm wide angle lens on.....instead of my 75-300mm

Jumped these horses on a flat...they were headed for water about 2 miles north in this big open canyon

The trail they were is well used.....really a healthy looking bunch too......

Just a hint of location....north of Capitol Reef Park.....Cathedral Valley area....big & empty country..seldom traveled

Pic 2......Butch may have slept here under this alcove.....

pic 3......Henry Mtn's on skyline......they jut up from the desert floor to 11500'...awesome range !
