Direct free upload is the way I like to go. Is Sierra a program that permits you to do that?

:idea: :P

LOVE your signature!! I'm sure hopin' for that! :angel:

Thx, rvwandering. It's ez for me to walk away, but so many kind people have helped me on this forum, and it's such a great info source I had to clarify the situation. As always, thanks to all you mods who make this forum possible for all of us.

Thank you for your apology. It just felt a bit harsh to hear another forum member wish I got busted for something. I tend to be overly sensitive, and considered leaving the forum due to that comment. It seems we can educate each other in a kinder way, through education rather than wishing...

My comment was: when everyone else was gone, I privately asked the instructor re off trail riding. I did not say anything about sneaking off when no one was around and would not see me. I wanted to know more about the mtn biking situation, as I am not currently a mtn biker, but have interest...

Yes, Spiff, I read topo maps and see designated Wilderness Areas, which are off limits for special reasons. As a person who's lived in the mtn west 46 years I tend to call our remaining open tracts of land the wilderness. I see that term cannot be used here, or it will be misunderstood...

I am not speaking about designated wilderness areas that are off limits to camping and other activities. I'm speaking about large tracts of land that are open for vehicle camping and hiking. BLM posted mtn bike signs for designated trails through this particular land tract. Clearly BLM...

Maybe reread my post, which read: Will check with friends at BLM and National Forest re this issue. Good to know regulations.

Interesting. I see mtn bike riders on BLM land often. No one patrols that vast wilderness. Van campers are permitted within regulated areas, but mtn bikers are not  :huh: Will talk to friends at local BLM and National Forest re this issue. REI instructor's presentation showed a mtn bike...

After taking a Mountain Biking class at REI I asked the instructor a lot of questions. Told him I often hike solo off trail in wilderness areas. And that it would be fun to do the same with a mountain bike, for days at a time. Takes a special bike to do that. In the old days bikes had baskets...

I've always been 100 per cent normal, but I just read all 46 pages of this thread, backwards, p 46-1. My back and eyeballs are the ones telling me I ain't right. Ouch, off to bed!! Hope I can see and sit up straight tomorrow. :dodgy:

Thx for posting that important info! Will revisit info when body and brain recover from my move.

Speaking of barter (or personal use) Amazon sells "coin wipes" in bags up to 500 per baggy. For facial or tp wipes. Takes up tiny amount of space for a lot of product. Anyone try these so far??? 35 bucks last time I looked. If they work well could be great barter item. Takes up a lot less space...

Good grief, each condom holds up to 2 gallons of water, what were they thinking??!! :P Looks like an interesting book.

Yes, tin can with char cloth, punk wood and ferro rod or bic, fast fire when needed. Remember bics are plastic, can leak. I carry mine in waterproof pill containers, for small and large bics. Plastic breaks, extra layer is safety measure against lighter fluid in backpack. Tin foil hats for...

Had NO idea roaches are fond of cardboard. What do they do, remove pieces and nest with it??? Does not seem edible, even by hungry annoying insects.

...

for those who love the expression tin foil hat...tin foil is recommended as a bug out item. many uses (other than hats :dodgy: ). heavy duty foil is the way to go.

tp & java top flash drives, imo. I remove all the cardboard tubes for my tp travel supply. then squash them flat to take up less space. some brands the tube is easier to remove than others. every inch of space counts in a minivan.
