TR's photos are always like a SF version of where's waldo. IF you look closely at his pics, there is ALWAYS good stuff included in the pics as accessories. Nice coaster, nice choice of area shown on the map.....

Nice unless you have humped it and met the Draw Monster, face to face.

One of the Xers, who shall remain nameless, PMd me the other day with some humorous comments about the nature of the terrain in and around Camp Mackall. I think "I should have listened" was implied. LOL
I remember thinking once "I'll just cut through, how bad can it really be?" ROTFLMAO!

If it's on the map pictured, it has to be just South of Mud Lake. Looks like the CLs kinda group up down there.
Things out there didn't have "Names" when I was there !!

I seem to have heard those comments as well.
Anyone who wanders into the Drowning Creek, SCUBA Road, or Big/Little Muddy drainage areas will find out what we are talking about pretty quickly.
AM, it isn't just the closeness of the contour lines, it is those little blue dashed and marsh grass marked areas too.
"Boxing Out". It isn't just for the Holiday Season or PCS.

I just ordered my T-2 Ranger, since it couldn't be re-designated as T-2 Surgeon....... needed a new folder and when you ask the expert and he says buy it, you simply buy it!
I am looking foward to receiving it and promise pics equal to those previously shown. Only difference is the choice of liquid....I can't decide whether to put it with a 20 year old Single Malt Scotch or a 25 year old Armagnac (cognac)...and a glock or H&K?
Tough choices!!
T-2

The first choice should not be so difficult. I don't think you'll find many people interested in seeing photos of French spirits. Go with the scotch.

On the second issue, I vote for the H&K.

Euro guns, Euro adult beverages, are you on the right board?
At least you picked a great knife.

Yep, giant 7th SFGA coin, CNC machined from billet stock.
