Ok...........Now can we chat a bit about that fire-ring in the background in the whiskey / cigar photo ??
I'm assuming that it's propane ??
(Edit) Homemade or store bought ??
Pros....Cons ????
A xx tank of gas will last about how long ??
Since you don't appear to be in a brushfire danger zone, do you use it because firewood is scarce or it's just more convenient ??

Thanx !!

More edit for speling.

Koko, that's not mine, it belongs to my friend Steve. Store bought and expensive - Campfire in a can. It does work significantly better than the several homemade and less expensive store bought versions I have been around though.

How long it lasts depends on how high you turn it up, but we used it three nights on this trip and it was still going.

Wood burning is not allowed in that particular national park, ever, anywhere. So something like that is the only way possible to have a campfire.

Other than situations like that, where it's the only way, I'd have no use for one, myself. But the other possible advantages include no smoke, no need to gather wood, instant on/off, no ashes (some places expect you to haul your ashes out with you).

I had no idea there was a demand for such a thing? When I noticed it in one of the above photos, I briefly thought to myself, that's an odd device to pack into the back country? A fake campfire! But, that's what we are up against if we really want to venture into pristine wilderness, and packing out your poop, goes without saying.

Good hunting. El Bee

edit: I was just thinking...at some point, people will be saying things like: "You mean people used to actually burn real wood in a campfire?"

Yeah, packing out your turds is getting to be required in more places every year.

Or, some places, like Grand Gulch, you don't have to pack out your turds, but they do expect you to pack out your used toilet paper.

I've found a properly sized piece of sandstone works just as well. And there are no regulations about leaving your shit scraper rock lay where you drop it. Really.

Nice pictures Dave. I see someone carries a battery powered impact. Never owned one but the mechanics that do like them. No air hoses to trip over, and can do most things we need an impact for.

Yup the impact is mine and I do like it a lot. Especially when changing a flat on the trail!

Much Thanx !!!
I rarely have a campfire anymore for a number of reasons, among them being camped in the middle of my hunting area and just too much hassle.
Then there's the whole liability thing in the event a spark would get away.........
I'll give this thing some thought.

As always, great pics!

Man, that one pic with the jeep right on the edge of the canyon wall, my wife would divorce me in a second if I drove that close to the edge and she was in the vehicle.

She has a serious fear of heights and gets nervous when we drive some of the canyon roads in this part of the world where the first bounce would be about 150 feet down.

Yes, or what are the odds, just as you drive along that the ridge has been festering for 3,000 years and needed only another couple tons of weight and vibration.... to break off a piece. Nah, really doubtful, huh? But, you see on the news, regularly, somebody falls down some type of ridge, berm, or gravel chute.

Good hunting. El Bee

PS hell, I don't like to stand too close to the windows in a high rise hotel. Gives me the creeps!

I would be locked up tighter'n a bird dog on point if you made me get out of the driver's side door on that jeep with that view...damn near gave me the vapors just looking at the picture!

DAA...how is the Macallan 18? I have an unopened bottle of Macallan 10 sitting in my freezer waiting for a good excuse to break the label...

The 18 is outrageously good! The 10... Well, not so much?

BTW... That 18 is also way rich for my blood, too. It was a gift, from back in November, finally had a good time and place to enjoy it!

Way too expensive for me though. Not something I'd ever buy for myself.

Speaking of that stuff, connoisseur spirits, etc. Has anybody noticed the fancy-pants Tequila down at Costco? Many years ago we could go down to Nogales and I (believe) we could bring seven "containers" of liquor, be it twelve ounce bottles of beer or one gallon jugs of vodka or tequila. How much costem? Don't remember, but I'm pretty sure it was under five bucks a gallon? I know we could get a 12 ounce water glass of tequila at the La Paloma in Zaragoza for a dollar.

Now, you can pay very close to $100 for what looks closer to a 750ml bottle of reposto or whatever they call it? Don't ask me the brand, there seems to be a different one every time I pass by that isle. So, what I am saying is; based on my experience with cheap tequila south of the border, I am just flabbergasted at what our well off neighbors are willing to pay for a category that I always considered a cheap drunk vehicle.

Good hunting. El Bee

edit: sooner or later, somebody will ask about that cigar balanced on the plastic cup?

Ahhh... The cigar. That was chosen, very specifically, not to "get in the way" of tasting that very high dollar scotch. And I didn't even light it until I had drank about as much as I was gonna for the evening.

It's a Montecristo White. Mild, creamy, good quality but not overly expensive cigar. Definitely more mild than my usual, but turned out to be a good choice to go with the whiskey.

Dave,
I know what you mean about the price…my bottle of Macallan 10 was a gift from a kid from Scotland that works for our bank.

I think the 10 year old stuff is around $65.00 a bottle, and it looks like the average of the 18 is around $200.00.

When we were in London, we went to Harrod’s department store and I found their ‘Wine and Spirits Room’…The Macallan 30 ‘Oak Cask’, or something like that, was ONLY, (written with sarcasm), around $3,500.00!

If you want to see something that is over the top, go to the wine and spirits section of www.harrods.com, and look at the 12 bottle collection of ‘The Dalmore’ single malt whiskey…it is only $987,500 British Pounds or about $1,500,000.00, BUT it comes with its own hand made wood storage case! [Eek!]

We didn't see it while we were there, as it is stored under lock and key!
