    WY Mud Roads

    I always carry tire chains. For mud, they are especially applicable when you're in gumbo country, such as north central WY or the Missouri Breaks. I use them as my get out of jail free card. As mentioned above, some of the worst is thawed gumbo. It's terrible.

    Thoughts on Kuiu products (clothing)?

    ...rain gear and when I got themnI thought they would fail because how light they were. I abused them laying in snow and mud putting on tire chains getting off a mountain. Figured they would be trashed. They looked like a muddy mess. Cleaned them up and used them again and no leaks! Their...

    ...negative deer reports on this unit to be a little worried. If anyone has some advice for us I’d be appreciative. Current plan is to bring tire chains and enough propane to not freeze, stay mobile, get high and glass all day. Beyond that I’m open to suggestion :) looks like the weather has...

    Emergency Tire Chains

    Ran across this new product on Amazon, with no product reviews, what does everyone think about these chains? Here is what I see as a plus: very cheap if they work, easy to put on once you're stuck The negatives: Tough to tell if they are just cheap junk, straps are a weak point for sure, but...

    Without a lift, you'll only be able to put chains on the back which is better than not. Difference between D and E is minimal. E load are probably not necessary. Fuel Mileage will drop by around 2 mpg (possibly more at higher highway speeds) Definitely look at Tacoma World for since there...

    Fitting Chains on Front

    ...the tires about the same size. Should that gain me the clearance to use chains on the front? I’ve also thought about spacers to move the tires out. The sole purpose of this would be to accommodate chains not to look cool. Any thoughts on modifying my setup to fit real tire chains on the front?

    Wyoming Elk Area 7 -- Difficult access? Confused...

    As others have said, there is plenty of public land, but a lot of it is difficult or impossible to access. But there is plenty that is accessible as well. Definitely bring a shovel and tire chains and be prepared for some wind and hard snow drifts.

    Very similar but only one spare tire. I also keep (4) tire chains. Double sided axe Bow saw And bottle neck jack not a floor jack. Come-along, handyman jack, fuel & chainsaw depening on the trip.

    ...atv's parked near the wilderness boundary at the end, I'm not sure where people park their trucks. Just want to add make sure you have tire chains in case it rains if you decide to go on back that road. We got lucky and went in after it had dried out, but all the trucks back there were...

    I found this interview with Jason Hairston very interesting talking about the pros/cons of merino wool vs synthetics. What you mentioned about the synthetic-material drawing sweat away from your arms I think is explained in this clip

    Preventing Knife Cuts in the Field

    ...proof can lead to dumb decisions, but at least your fingers will not be cut so you can apply direct pressure halfway up to your elbow. Edit to add they are a little like tire chains, put the chains on before you are stuck, and put them on BEFORE you reach up inside the moose to get the lungs...

    Just go through the rim. Obviously you need one with a bit of an opening in it to pass the strap through. then when you get out of the mud. The strap cleans easy.....just pitch the 2x4

    Considering Lifting for Function v. Form

    Sweet, thanks for your experience. Yes, the 4" lift that does NOT use the upper control arms is tempting as, in general, I tend to trust stock parts for longevity. Tomorrow they're going to fit the 285/75/17 (33.9") and trim the fenders/bumper as needed to allow for tires and chains. They...
