Lost spare tire just before winch hill 2 at nite. Guy with a landcruser mention my broken strap. I was out of it and once i figured out what happened i went back and found my nitrogen kit but no tire. Was a stock spare off dodge ram so 31" tire roughly on 8x6.5 black steel rim.

Trail donation???? I have likely done my last Fordyce trip this year, so I can't do it, but I hope that someone could "rescue" the spare and remove it from the trail. The last thing we need is to "decorate" the trail with our discards! As an aside, that includes "white flowers". A couple weeks ago I spent more time than I appreciated picking up other's "white flowers". Please pack out what you pack in, including your poop. It is not that difficult, and makes it a much more enjoyable experience for those that come after you.

Wow, You got me alright, trying to decorate the trail. A donation to someone driving by is what was meant. If I didnt have to rush off the trail the next day out commitee to get to the hospital I would have gone back like originaly planed and retrieved my "trail decoration":shaking:
