Thanks Okie / ReneeG :)
That picture was taken somewhere around the Snowy Range. I was wondering what was wrong with all of those trees. The whole area was hit pretty bad. Here in Michigan we have a problem with the ash borer. They've already taken out three trees in my backyard. :(
As for the generator it looks like I'll be purchasing a gas generator. When I called the manufacturer about jet kits, etc. for the propane generators he said there is no way it will ever work at high altitudes and to purchase the gas version. 'Tis OK since you can never have too many generators and the one I have works great below 4000ft and was quite inexpensive. I'll probably end up with two of those Honda 2000's w/ the parallel kit. From what I've read people seem to have the least amount of problems with the Honda.
ReneeG - I found out why you have the V10. If you plan on pulling anything heavy around those mountains you need to have that V10 or a diesel. My old 2k7 5.4 V8 did OK but I was certainly pushing it to its limits, no doubt about that. I like a little more wiggle room.
