I've got Equalizers on there and it keeps it pretty level. In the picture near Flaming Gorge, the rear end of the truck is sitting in a hole and it makes it look like it's squatting. I could adjust the hitch a bit more but as it is, if I punch it off the line, the rear end breaks loose when the turbo kicks in so I leave it where it's at.

But of course!


None of these have the truck in them but you all seem to be enjoying what I've got to share so here is some more!
Colorado River, Lee's Ferry.


Bryce, UT


On the way up to Dunraven Pass, Yellowstone.


Other side of Dunraven Pass


Lower Falls, Yellowstone


Tatankas


I think this one was on the north end of Yellowstone looking towards Montana.


The money shot.


Flaming Gorge area.

Wow, pick any of them to hang on the wall, or all of them..!
Like the molting sheep, and that poor starving grizzly hasn't eaten in months.

Hey! My granddaughter lives in Rock Springs! They sure do get a bad rap down there. Oh well, I love living in Wyoming.

I concur! Nice pics indeed. I've seen most of the same sites and animals myself, but, somehow they look better from your point of view.

Sorry for the bad wrap. It seems without fail that we always get snowed in with roads closed and the wind & sideways snow howling in Rock Springs & then they jack the hotel prices up. Rolled a truck on black ice just outside of Rock Springs one winter. Spent a lot of time in Gillette on Uncles ranch growing up, love Wyoming, in the summer time...

I was just hacking on ya buddy. Rock Springs and Gillette have always been viewed pretty much the same; Boom towns. A lot of oil, gas, methane, coal, uranium, etc. businesses. They come and go and so do the people. I'm a lifer. My dad was old school oilfield. I did it for 6 years and have been coal mining for over 27 years.

I know what ya mean about the price gougers tho.

A lot of money made and come & gone for sure. My cousin held out to the money grubbers for many years and finally won the battle, he won't say but I think they wrote him a big one.
Mining is a good gig, but a tough one. A moment of silence to the boys that went down in the Colorado mine this weekend... Carbon Monoxide, not right, too much safety equipment for that to happen, IMO.

Painting of my Cousin in Gillette, Wy. This oil is to be entered in the Cheyenne Frontier Days. The artist, Pamela Earleywine, won 1st in oil painting last year (and you saw it 1st, right here on FTE)
