Speaking of extra chains for the chainsaw....I have a PoulanPro w/ 20" bar. The chain that came with it is made by Oregon. I bought a spare 20" Oregon chain that is on the same receipt as the chainsaw. It is too long...I can have the bar at full extension and there is not enough tension. I flip to the back of the package and there is an asterisk by my chainsaw model number and says "When using Oregon branded bar" in microscopic print. So I will not be bringing my spare chain...just a file to sharpen the one.
No worries; we are going to have enough chainsaws and axes there we could level part of the forest. If we come across multiple downed trees it will be a good thing like they had on the K Trail; but hopefully we do not.

Downed trees every 50-100 yards for several miles. That was a tiring trip.
I really want to do the K Trail at some point but want to make sure I have a few people with me that are up to the security and path clearing tasks.

Where is K Trail?
SE Oklahoma. There were some issues with people sabotaging trails a few years ago but I have not seen reports of that since.

Just read a few quick articles on it. Something about a board with spikes in it? Wasn't sure if it was just covered by dirt/leaves or if it was put in a mud pit. Either way. I'd be pissed.
So back on topic. Getting my checklist ready for packing the truck up tonight. Still need to play with the CB a little. I got it down under 2 on the SWR last night, which according to rightchannelradio is "acceptable." I think I can make a few more adjustments, so we'll see if I can make it any better. At this point, I'm pretty much ready to go!

I'm ready to go... damn this thing is heavy! I'll be burning this fuel for sure to shed weight.
Getting my list knocked down pretty steady. Dual battery setup is installed, tested, and appears to be happy. Now to knock out some smaller but important issues.
