    MSR Lightning

    No problems yet . . . After reading these posts I went right home last night to make sure my lightnings were ok. I just love those things and these posts got me worried. Outside of a little bit of rust that I lightly sanded off everthing looks just dandy. I don't know if we just got lucky or...

I just wish they'd leave us the old parking lots (even for a fee) so we can access the high peaks without having to deal with their nonsense and limiting our access to the trails. Can you imagine not getting a parking...
