Yeah that'd work too. If I were only going to do it once or twice I'd carry a

I tried the mittens last night, kept my hands nice and warm during a walk.
The mukluks are just slightly too small for me but Angie loves them, they're
too big for her but fit good with a couple pairs of heavy socks.

I would second the welding cable suggestion. We used to make them out of 4/0
rubber jacketed welding cable, and they would definitely get every last amp
into the receiving end!

I bought welding cable and good solid end clamps and made my own 25
years ago. Still as good as new.
Rubber covered cable is nice and flexible even when cold and I made them

They got 10 inches of snow in Caribou on Sunday. I'm headed up tomorrow and a
little nervous about getting in to camp. I'll have to plow snow for 3/4 mile,
fortunately the Dodge has good tires. I'll pack my snowshoes just in case, I'm
even thinking pretty hard about hauling a snowmobile with me.

The S500 is a 95 with conventional ignition. The S420 is a 98 with electronic

I find it difficult to believe that the different ignition systems would make
that much difference.

That being said, my S420 consistently gets better mileage than the S500, by at
