Here is my 82 Subaru Brat. It has been extensively modded. I am about to go full time in it. If you have never seen one of these it IS small enough to fit into the back of a full size truck. Weighs under 3500lb too.
Keep in mind in AB the trail to Diablo Drop off is closed from a land slide and bottomless mud pit (Arroyo del....something or other), and the sand stone canyon on Fish Creek is closed again due to a massive boulder blocking the trail.
I just did fish creek this last weekend all the way to...
I just did this trail in my Brat last weekend. It's a little rougher than previously, and I'd expect the rain this week to possibly make tougher.
There is a switch back where 2 big boulders are in the trail and to go around them is precariously close to the edge. Going up will be a lot tougher...

We also started a new Mountain Roo chapter on Facebook dedicated to overland Subaru enthusiasts. Do a search for MtnRoo Overland on Facebook and join up. We are always happy to have more OB members in the group. More chit chat on trails and gear than "check out my crosstrek with methods" type...
