Richard, Very nice photos. Now I see why Californians are looking at South West Utah as an alternate location to live. Tim -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM] On Behalf Of Richard A Jones Sent: Friday, April 29, 2005 7:56 AM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Utah trip report & photos I met Bob Stevens last week for some mtn biking in the San Rafael Swell of Utah. http://jones.colorado.edu/jones/Utah05-2 Another wonderful Syncro trip, this time with that smug Westy feeling as it rained for 6-8 hours one night and morning. We stayed warm with my Carver and Bob's catalytic heater and our "ceilings." I took someone's idea of an insulated barrier at the roof hole to seal off the upper section under the pop-top and made a prototype out of a piece of fleece I had. Snaps around the front and sides and just tucks into the pads on the back. Even a single layer of fleece works fine--and when you forget it, you don't bust your head! Bob made a similar one, but with better fit along the sides. We highly recommend this idea and thanks to whoever came up with it and posted it last fall! Richard A Jones Boulder, Colorado |
