Hey there everyone GFC build 5912. Purchased new (yay Black Friday sale) install date 4/18/24. Did a quick turnaround from AZ to Belgrade and back. Initially was scheduled for Aug install to coincide with our upcoming NP tour and extra week in MT looking for a possible future home.
Ultimate goal with this build out is keeping it simple yet functional for mostly weekend trips and usually 1 long 6-8 night expedition style trip with the guys every year. I come from a backpacking background so I’m used to oz=lbs and trying to keep things necessary but light and prefer to camp simple not extravagant.
