Swagger Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 How do I enter a photo off my harddrive? It keeps asking for a URL? You need someplace to host it on the web, then use the IMG tool in the forums to reference it's Internet location. Quote Link to comment
Swagger Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 (edited) Not stuck, but needed some help overcoming an obstacle. This is in Doran Canyon near the old Calico ghost town in southern California. Wasn't on the way to a cache, but we did log a couple earlier that morning. http://www.my4x4pics.com/details.php?image_id=48 Edited January 23, 2004 by Cruzin Quote Link to comment
+rusty_tlc Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 It's also a good idea to re-size a little. Quote Link to comment
Swagger Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 It's also a good idea to re-size a little. I did - that's down from 1600x1200. Mayhaps I'll shrink it a bit more and edit the IMG tag. Quote Link to comment
Swagger Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Better? j/k - I edited the original post and pointed the IMG tag to a smaller version. Quote Link to comment

+bob393 Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 No picture. Got stuck in a snow bank last year when a snow plow came by while I was in the woods. Now I ue an S10 4WD when it's bad and have yet to get stuck, or plowed in! Quote Link to comment

+rooboy Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 My effort last Satruday. Here is the text from my note: I came up and over the crest of a hill and found myself, and my car, travelling down hill on a sheet of ice. This was the result. Quote Link to comment

+Sparky-Watts Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 (edited) Not stuck here, but from the looks of things around that little mud hole I drove through, a lot of other people got stuck!

+Sparky-Watts Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 This road is on the way to this cache. You get a DNF on that one Sparky? Nope...found it back in late November or early December and almost broke my GMC pickup getting there, so I wanted to go back with a real vehicle just for kicks! Here's the log for that one! Oh, and while I was there today, I had a Bald Eagle fly right over me at about 20 feet! Only the third one I've ever seen in this area in all my life! Awesome birds, they are! I had just put the camera away after taking this pic, and didn't get a shot of it. Quote Link to comment

+the4Grays Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 We have been sticking our vehicles in the mud for the last two weeks. The first one was my Toyota Sienna van on the side of the rode.Wife said it looked solid.Took a tow truck to get out. Just in case that wasn't enough fun the very following weekend we did it again but luckily we were driving our GMC Jimmy so all we did was put it hi lock and got out. We will see how this weekend goes Sorry no pictures tow truck driver didn't have a camera. Quote Link to comment

Ok....I actually got my new Jeep stuck yesterday, and dang, didn't have the camera with me. I got high centered on the river dike placing my new cache. Took about 5 minutes to get the jack out, lift one wheel, slide in a log, and back off of it. Didn't even scratch the paint off the skid plate....oh,well, better luck next time! Quote Link to comment

+Sparky-Watts Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 Ya gotta love Kansas! We're getting nailed with freezing rain and drizzle. I had planned on going to Wichita, but after seeing three serious wrecks in less than 3 miles, I decided to stay home. I didn't get a pic of the 2001 Jeep that rolled right in front of me, but here are two other 4wd vehicles that didn't have much luck on the ice. Sorry for the poor quality, but I shot from a moving vehicle so that I didn't become "part of the problem". That was a Chevy (upside down) and a suburban, two of the three vehicles involved. This one is a Honda.....it was a fatality. Quote Link to comment

+MountainMudbug Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 We were on our way back down the mountain to search for a new cache placement location, when we missed being part of this 4 car pileup by a couple seconds. Fortunately there were no serious injuries, since it took forever to get assitance up there. Of the four cars involved (a Chevy, a Buick, a Jeep, a Subaru) only the upended Subaru drove away from this! Quote Link to comment
