  1. Was wondering if anyone has tried one of those Coleman Stove Top drip coffee makers and what they thought of it? Chris
  2. A bunch of used to take a Spring Break camping trip up there every year. Awesome place. Thanks for the pics.
  3. Thanks. I wouldn't mind a report on your new paddle set up when you have had a chance to try them out. Been thinking about the same set up or a set of Doonz.
  4. Thanks. I already changed over the stock headlights to HIDs. Wanted to add these as well. Seems like you can never have enough light. Here is a pic of the piece i welded in for the mount. I then cut a hole in my hard top and trimmed it with door edge guard.
  5. Put some new HIDs on the RZR yesterday. They should definitely should help "show the way".
  6. Well after @25 years I finally made it back out to Dumont last weekend. WOW. A lot of changes compared to the early 80's. The RZR S did better in the sand than I thought it would. Got me thinking how much of a difference paddles would make. The dunes haven't changed all of that much except for Comp. Don't recall it having a bowl at the base and being whooped out at all. Trash. This was kind of depressing. Trash everywhere. I spent about an hour on Sun. morning picking stuff up around my camp and had 1/2 a big trash bag full. Anybody know what that R-44 (helicopter) was taking pictures of? Here are a few pics I took.
  7. They look comfy, but I would put a hole in those things in nothing flat!
  8. Anybody heading to Dumont this weekend? Gotta work Xmas and maybe New Years. Need to break the RZR in on the sand.
  9. Here are a few pics I came across the other day while cleaning out some stuff. Thought someone might like em'. This guy was jumping the finger dunes. Taken in the Spring of 84 I think. My old truck, buggy and ATC. Good times!
  10. MSRP $13,999. Got em to throw in about $1,500 in accessories and a few other items.
  11. Thanks. $300 seems to be the average after a quick search. Found a set of instructions and it looks like fun (not).
  12. My girlfriend would tell you that I am hard headed enough . I am planning on wearing one anyway. Thanks, Chris
  13. New belts already on order. They should come standard in my opinion. With all the liability stickers stuck on this thing, you would think it would. Thanks, Chris
  14. I am planning on getting one for my next "big" pucrchase. Any idea what the UMP costs? Thanks
  15. Pulled the trigger this week on a 2010 RZR S. This thing is a blast. Took it out to Bitter Springs for a few hours this morn. Can't wait to see how it does in the dunes.
  16. Although I don't actually work in the Vegas area, I commute to San Fran once a week. Being a pilot for Virgin America I get to ride on any other airline out there. The passenger loads coming in and out of Vegas are almost always way up there. I frequently get the last seat or ride up front. People are still coming to Vegas, guess they are just not spending as much when they get here. Additionally, our passenger loads have been way up system wide all summer wherever we go. On the other hand, one Brother-in-law in SoCal is a Custom Cabinet maker and he is down to part time. The other Brother-in-law ran several crews for a stucco contractor and he is the last man standing. Hopefully things will start to turn around for all soon. Chris

    BEER!

    Sam's Boston Lager Killians Lineys MGD Miller Lite Too many others to list. While on the subject, any recs. for a good Micro Brew place in Henderson/Vegas? Chris
  18. Good guess on the direction. We were going from NY to LA. Got a shortcut that put us right over the top of the dunes.
  19. As promised, Coral Pink from 36,000'. Pretty neat looking area. Can't wait to get moved to Henderson in May and start aquiring toys again. Chris
  20. The restricted area runs just south of Dumont. Basically runs along I-15. Most of the areas in CA and NV run from the ground to 60,000'. Being a Sat., the airspace wasn't hot and they let us cut the corner.
  21. Yes it was. I am a pilot for Virgin America. Do the LA - NY trip a lot. Usually we fly to far south of Dumont to get any decent pics. Gotta a shortcut from ATC which allowed me to take that one. Want to get one of Coral Pink next.
  22. Here is one I took the day before of Kelso? Sure is a tease!
  23. Looks like clean-up was a success. Hope to get out there next year. Snapped this yesterday on my way from LA to NY.
  24. There is a product called Aero Krill (sp) that is a good pernetrating oil or liquid wrench. Might try putting some heat to them too with a propane torch. Put anti-sieze on them when you re-install. Been using it for years on boat trailer wheels and never have a problem getting them off. Chris
