  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    2007 Honda Pilot Off Road Build

    Awesome! Love seeing the Honda nation represent. Also love seeing the adventure cat, a rare breed indeed!

    US West Canceled trips?

    Makes me glad I overland in a 4 cylinder 99 Honda CR-V. If life gives me the chance at a significant trip this year, I won't let the gas prices stop me.

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    There are several for various different types, I think. They also vary somewhat between US and Canada.

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Still a decent number of folks using CB in the USA especially. Certain parts of Canada as well, mostly the praries where it works best. In the mountains, CB isn't as good. I have one in my rig, and I use it when wheeling with certain friends of mine. I plan to install a UHF with the Resource...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Ahh, so it is corn snow! Nasty, nasty stuff. I feel your pain.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Looks about like the conditions around here these days. Pretty nasty, although that looks like fairly fresh snow. Ours is getting melty and becoming corn snow. Horrible stuff.

    1999 Honda CR-V - "Ganbaru"

    Gotta love bear country lol The LADD channels are UHF, VHF is for marine use. I'm planning to get a UHF from Amazon ASAP this season and program it for all the BC RR channels, including the newish 4x4 channel (thanks to the lobbying of BC4WD), because logging, natural gas and mining is SUPER...

    1999 Honda CR-V - "Ganbaru"

    I really like that. My posts for the awning are also a pair of painting extension poles! Great minds think alike, clearly. Where is that sandy spot? Looks like a sweet location for a campout. I actually considered doing almost the exact same thing with a fold down table on the rear door, but...

    1999 Honda CR-V - "Ganbaru"

    New Mod! A little while ago I bought a 11.5x8.5 nylon rain fly, primarily for use in backpacking adventures, but I figured it could serve in overlanding as well. To that end, I built a telescoping mount bar to attach it to the back of the rig. For a while I've wanted a better solution than the...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Finished my uber kludge awning mount bar, made from some tubing I had laying around and $20 worth of hardware from the store: You remove the clip pins at the ends and they telescope out much wider, then you can put the pins back in to lock it. It's made to accept nylon rain fly I bought for...

    I love that you put "look good" in quotes lol My sentiment exactly.

    That's going to be a massive improvement.

    Maybe hang it from the ceiling like the Aussies do or something.

    Looks awesome. I'm intrigued to see how it will look installed.

    Recovered a GMC Sierra that was stuck up an icy hill in a ditch. Good times.

    24 Hour Mini Adventures

    I feel that! With 5 kids and one on the way, I don't have a ton of time to get out there. Sometimes I have to try to sneak in overnighters like this one. I would say you had an adventure! My most recent overnighter was up in the mountains near my house, deep down a very old and decommissioned...

    Before you Buy Rooftop Tent

    That's fair, but also recognize that your scenario is particularly specialized and by no means common. Your reasons for not wanting an RTT, while mostly valid for your use case (some were a little overblown, such as snow on the ladder etc.) Do not apply to the majority of users. In principle, I...

    Before you Buy Rooftop Tent

    It is sometimes summer in Canada though :P lol perpetuating them stereotypes! I had never heard of Moha, BC. Just looked it up. I'm up in Telkwa, near Smithers. For the kind of extreme temps we have up here, I can see the appeal of a hot tent for winter camping. I like the idea of something...
