(actually from 1988 Sentinel Worlds) (this from 1987 EOS)

Yeah, at least I had hair. Thats what I was doing in 1987.

Back to the thread.

I guess I could rent a sled and put my ski mounts back on my Treg. I should have more room for gear now seeing as how I will have no need for the full size spare.

Rather good -interactive- webcam...

Telluride, right above "Sweet Life", the Ice Cream shop from last year.

Cool camera. When I turned it on, there were a bunch of tourists standing in view gabbing, and I could catch every word with the camera mic.

Bear Takes A Dip At Motel Pool
Manager: Bears Wander Onto Grounds Looking For Food

OURAY, Colo. -- Wildlife officials are on the lookout for a bear that took a dip at a motel pool in Ouray.
The bear wandered through an open gate and into the motel's hot springs pool Thursday night as guests watched. General manager Ryan Hein said the bear jumped in for a little bit and then crawled his way out of the warm water pool.

The motel borders wilderness and Hein said bears regularly wander onto motel grounds looking for garbage to eat. The Colorado Division of Wildlife has set traps for the bear to possibly relocate it.

Let that be a lesson to anyone joining us. Watch for bears when swimming. Also, the bears WILL use a can opener on your Touareg if you leave food inside.

This sounds like the Best Western where I stayed last year. Heh.

Aircooled has a great point for everyone joining us this year... DO NOT LEAVE FOOD, DRINK OR ANYTHING THAT MAY SMELL LIKE FOOD in your vehicle. The bears are a persistant bunch.
