    If you add moth balls, make sure it's Naphthalene and not 1,4 dichlorobenzine. The paradichlorobenzine with create hydrochloric acid. You might just buy some toluene at the paint store and add this instead. I know some guys add acetone to clean CATS up. They still a special additive to do this. The classic insurance is a big risk because of you are in violation and have a claim they will deny it.

    I didn't think they had electricity back then judging by the photos in the deli inside the Tonto basin market

    Stewart mountain is Canyon lake. I think the little diversion dam must have been for irrigation or something

    I figured but to me a spillway is at the main dam

    Salt river above Roosevelt question

    Wait, there's a spillway above Roosevelt or are you talking about the diversion dam?
  11. I was camped by Peña Blanca lake on a late hunt one year. Glassed up a bunch of soldiers walking on the US side with AKs. As they got closer we slipped out. We saw BP unload motorcycles with agents oh then wearing balaclava. Later that night we heard a bunch of automatic gunfire. BP. Told us we didn't need to move camp. Probably 1988 or 89
  12. I hiked into the Colorado River one time at Jackass creek. There were several condors there. They stood within 6 feet of me and spread their wings and sunned. They hung around the whole week

    Dehydrated food

    I have a freeze drier. I freeze dry deer steaks and add them to freeze dried meals HC African peanut stew is amazing with a black tail or coues steak crumbled in

    Tires

    This makes no sense The wheels that come on a half ton are not rated for the 3000+ pounds that a load range E tire can take. They hold up better in the rocks but you don't need to run 80 psi Your wheel bearings and springs can't take 6000# either. I run Es on both of my F150s but I have never inflated above 50 psi. I can't imagine how rough it would ride.

    Muzzle brake ?

    I wouldn't put one in the lever gun. The other gun is a judgement call but be prepared to wear ear muffs when shooting it. No suppressors allowed in Canada

    New World Record Elk out of Washington.

    It was not a Governor tag. Just a raffle tag. He killed it on Dec 31st, last day of his hunt. Got permission to recover it on New years day. He lied to people and told them he was deer hunting but we all do that. He also claims that the land owner never asked for a trespass fee. All done by voice mail.

    Dream Hunt?

    I built a new rifle just for this hunt. A double square bridge mauser chambered in 9.3x62. Bullet of choice was 286 grain partitions and 200 grain Federal hard cast polymer coated 10mms. Here's the one 10mm bullet I fired

    Dream Hunt?

    For me it's always been a 31 day horseback hunt in the Yukon for grizzly, stone sheep and caribou. I got to do my other dream hunt, a Brown bear on Kodiak last May and killed a Booner on my first day of a DIY hunt.

    It's probably proportional. A 375 bull will only be 340 etc
