Spike camp on the Kettle Crest with tiny pyramid prototype and 48 Willys.
Oct 23, 2018 at 11:40 am #3561014Couldn’t resist responding to your GD reference, but I assume your talking about the pyramid prototype. Any details?
Oct 23, 2018 at 11:40 am #3561015I like everything about this post.
Oct 23, 2018 at 3:19 pm #3561035My friend Dan (the 48 Willys owner) took this picture for me for the tarp but he caught the sunbeams and the jeep too. It was a grand day out. Hiked to an old lookout on Taylor Ridge of the Kettle Crest in WA. It had rained and high winds the night we slept and we awoke to the sunshine.
The mid was a rectangular 6×8′ and proved just enough coverage for the two of us. With higher winds and blowing snow, or taller people it would need more length. Hope to make some slightly longer in the coming months.
The Willys has an attachment for a disking unit for farmers.
Oct 23, 2018 at 6:03 pm #3561049so a Willys jumping like it was in 4wd and sunshine daydreams at the pyramids?
Oct 20, 2019 at 2:25 am #3614768Not a Willy, but my beloved (and expensive to maintain) 74 Landcruiser. Took that SOB all over, from CO winters to Logging trails. Miss that puppy and sad I sold it. Worth big $$ today.

love how the sun rays filter through just exactly perfectly onto the Willys and mini mid…very nice

Definitely “make happy any man alive”
