    Hope this isn't a repost... got it in an email, thought it was pretty funny... :rofl: "Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter...

    Ford Super Duty

    My tow rig is a 2002 Ford F350 Superduty with the V-10. I have looked online (When I bought this truck, it did not come with a owners manual) to try and figure out what kind of oil is recommended from the manufacturer, and can't find anything definitive. I have done everything short of...

    Churchill Trail, Alaska 2009

    The Dave Churchill Memorial trail goes from the Willow side of Hatcher Pass, over the pass, to Baldi Mt. (Or Wet Gulch Trail). This is typically a winter route for snowmachiners, but if the weather is right, you can hit this trail in the rigs. Much of the trail is swamp, and there are a couple...

    Buffalo Mine, Alaska 2009

    Buffalo Mine is about 60 miles outside of Anchorage, right before the town of Sutton. This trail is short but sweet. There are lots of good hill climbs, good mud sections when wet, and plenty of black bears (One of the heaviest bear baited areas in the state). We run this trail pretty...

    The "Connector", Alaska 2009

    This trail is not for the faint of heart. This trail is one of the most difficult in our area (South Central/Mat-Su Valley). This trail is a swamp/mud/winch fest to say the least. Think of it as an endurance test for your winch. This is a trail we just recently started to develop, that connect...

    Knik Glacier/Valley, Alaska 2009

    Knik is probably one of the most popular recreating areas in the state. It's about 45 miles north of Anchorage, and although it has a reputation for being quite mild terrain wise, it can also cost you your life. This area is a glacier runoff area (Knik River is the main body of water), and the...

    Boulder Creek, Alaska 2009

    Boulder Creek is a fairly heavily traveled trail about 100 miles north of Anchorage. Because of its relatively easy traversing, milder built rigs and 4 wheelers/UTVs have an easier time getting back there. These are pictures from a recent trip we took during last years moose season. We did...

    Hicks Creek, Alaska 2009

    Hicks Creek trail is located about 120 miles North of Anchorage. It offers a wide variety of terrain, water crossings, hill climbs, and weather. These are pictures from a group of us that went out that way moose hunting last fall (September 2009). Here is a video compilation of the trip...

    Hello from Alaska!

    My names Tony. Not much (Any really) rock crawling where I'm from, but plenty of off-roading and OHV. Came across this site while looking for other 4x4 forums (As I frequent a few others), and this looked like a pretty good spot. Couple pictures of my rig... (Build thread if interested)
