The CAP (central az project) canal is used for irrigation of our farms. This water is pumped fro the Colorado river into the Lake Plesant reservoir during the winter and released to the farms during the summer.
I can tell I getting closer to home as I'm seeing signs of civilization. My next ride will be the Bloody Basin trail on Friday the 10th of Dec.
The new mounting system for my top box worked great, but it is obvious the the things inside get a rough ride. That was a full bag of almonds with only a small opening at the top about 1" long. It is now almost empty and all those almonds are somewhere in the bottom. That red lid was on tight when I started out.

    Is that a Stanley Fat Max box? I was getting one but then I thought the plastic bottom wouldn't have lasted long on the back of the TW. Did you add a metal plate or something?

    Looks like your getting the knack for the rough back roads and trail riding. Nice photo's and history from this area. (Admiral TW Forum).

    Jules, I sent you an email with all of the details on that box. I don't know if you got it or not. Yes, it is a Fat Max and I did use plywood to relieve the stresses that it would take.
