What a wonderful thing to come home from work and see! This is amazing. I would like to thank @Chris and @Garza for hosting this contest and supplying me with more Jeep goodies! Thanks guys! 
I could keep going on as it was quite a time and one I will never forget.
It's kind of a long story but it started off with a cool overlanding camping trip with my pops (it's kind of an annual thing we do) but he came out here to visit and I took him up to Glacier National Park this past fall, that weekend we went up was the same day the park actually closed Going-to-the-Sun road for the season so we drove around to the east side of the park the long way. Well it was fall time (no snow and dry where we came from), however once we crossed the Continental Divide at Marias Pass it was like we drove into winter. It was freezing but awesome at the same time. I have a broken heater core too, so we had to stop and put on more clothing layers, gloves and brew up some coffee to hold onto while driving like it was a hand warmer. We had to keep going, as the scenery was getting more epic and this was almost a once in a lifetime thing to be doing. You should have seen the looks on other peoples faces as they saw us topless and doorless in a Jeep in the snow at Glacier. Priceless.I think we all want to know what you were doing out in this cold weather without at top

Congratulations on your wins and very cool story. Accidental pun retained.
Here's a few more pics from that trip for anyone interested. This epic mountain in my background is "Mad Wolf Mountain" in the Two Medicine area of Glacier National Park. Looking forward to exploring more here with my Jeep this summer. Stay tuned for that, i'm heading out there this weekend.
Same here, love me some backcountry.
I do have a RTT, its a Yakima Skyrise HD. I have the small version, which is a 2-person size and the lighter of the 2 HD versions. I actually haven't mounted it up there yet but I think I may test it out tomorrow now that I have the next week off from work. It weighs 95lbs, so I know my hardtop can support that, but can it support that with me inside too? (The ladder does support half of the overall weight when deployed so it is possible I would assume). Or I could be pushing it and crack my hardtop...we'll see what happens. I'll report back.

Ahh snail mail, i'll keep an eye out and will let you know if/when it arrives. Hopefully it does not get lost somewhere, Oregon is not that far from Montana but yeah most regular mail only takes a few days typically.
