    Maggie’s Motorcycles from Eastern WA to Fairbanks

    Forgot about the ferry, definitely take it especially if you’re tight on time. Take it the return trip so you can rest after the adventure. You can either pitch a tent or get a cabin, not many cabins they go fast. It’s Haines, Ak to Bellingham, Wa is the best price, you will go through some...

    Rifle Scopes Lightest midrange hunting scopes

    March 3x24x42 weighs in @ 22oz. Built tough as nails, good turrets several decent reticles. Have them on 300wm, 338 wm and 300wsm. My first March has been in one snowmobile rollover and on 4wheeler end for end without losing zero. Those Leicas look interesting also. Good luck with your choice.

    Plates and carrier

    I am issued the Hesco Multi-Curve polyethylene, it is surprisingly comfortable and less hot than any other that I have worn. Has a 10 year service life compared to my 5 year soft armor. Oddly enough the Hesco are more comfortable than the soft and less hot. I would not chose to wear steel or...
