We will be south of Christmas Valley, Oregon, down on Summer Lake. Camping here
http://www.anareservoirrvpark.com/ The guys I'm going with, do this guided hunt thing. It's $150 a day per person, yeah I know, but you get private fields to shoot in, and they put on a four course BBQ lunch for you. But if you figure if I were to stay at a motel with the other guys I used to go with, and hit up restaurants for breakfast, and dinner, and the store for lunch and beverages, I was spending almost $200 a day. So its worth it.
I'm been planning out how to pack my truck, and the best way, is to make some plywood platforms, that straddle the bed. That will clamp down to the bed rails. And that way I can strap coolers and/or bins down to it. This way I can have my gun cases hidden under the platform and the only thing people will see, is whatever is strapped down on the top. Plus the spare tire, since I don't have the spare tire attachment, so I can't put it under there. My gun cases are too long to fit in my toolbox, so they will have to go under the platform. And if I do it right, I make them a platform to shoot from too!
Wish my uncles truck was running, or I'd borrow it. He has a 85 dually crewcab GMC diesel with a flatbed, and a huge flatbed that that goes over the cab and ties into the front bumper from hell. And talk about a great place to shoot from. But the diesel is dead.
Will be planning out the platform this weekend. Will be posting up pictures of things, and my trip. Been too long since I've gone. My buddies have been texting me and smack talking on who's gonna outshoot who. Or the text will only be, "peww thwap!"
On good thing is, I'll be traveling thru Bend, so I will be filling up growleres both ways through. Bend is micro beer mecca!
