Hope he gets going again, at least its some beautiful country to break down in and likely comfortable and cool. I had a harley break down in arizona while touring w my dad. Got to sit on side of road in 100° temps for a couple hours, no shade, no breeze. It was quite unpleasant

Jake's Garage in W. Yellowstone got them fixed up. They made it to Glacier N. P. the day after the repairs and are continuing a fantastic family road trip/vacation.

Luckily, the weather was great. He said it was a little cool at nite, but dry camping was not an issue with propane heat and refrigerator.

Thanks again for all the help and offers! I am proud to be a part of this community!!!

good news

Glad to hear he is up and running, not too many places in West to get things fixed.(Put my archery elk camp in 10 miles north of there every year)

A little "cool" is an understatement. That storm that blew in Monday and Tuesday this week had the mountains all white with snow again, and lows in the upper 20's in West Jellystone.

I'm headed to Yellowstone in 2 weeks with my truck - glad to have a shop recommendation in the park. And thanks for the weather report - I will bring a small generator to charge my camper battery to keep the camper warm - to keep my wife happy.
