  • 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.

    Bigfoot

    Funny enough, I realize I haven't posted my "probably not bigfoot, but others immediately said bigfoot" story. I had taken a couple of the kiddos out on an overnight bush camp on the shores of a very large lake in a part of BC that is renowned as Sasquatch country, so much so in fact that the...

    Bigfoot

    I wonder if that might have been a bugling elk or something.

    SVO ....Small Vehicle Overlanding

    1st gen is best gen :D One of my fav vehicles I've ever owned, possibly number 1, with my 06 Dodge Charger vying for that spot. If Honda engineered a vehicle as awesome as the RD1 when they weren't even trying to make a "true off roader", I'm sad they didn't actually set out to make the ultimate...

    What knives do you guys recommend?

    CRKT Firespark is my favourite EDC knife. Very cool mechanism and it looks slick as anything. I have a Kershaw Blur for more rough work, it has a tanto with a semi serrated edge. The sharpest pocket knife I own is my Higo no Kami, an amazing japanese knife that's baiscally a pocket katana. That...

    SVO ....Small Vehicle Overlanding

    I have a first generation one, and definitely it has a decent cargo area even with the rear seats up, but you can fold the rear seats almost flat and have a huge cargo area. Also, on some of the first generation, you can fold the seats into a flat, albeit slightly slanted bed. All you have to do...

    SVO ....Small Vehicle Overlanding

    I absolutely LOVE that generation of Tracker. I almost bought one when I was first looking for a 4x4. It was between that and my CR-V. The Tracker had an oil leak and some rust, unfortunately, so I went with the V. It's all about space efficiency when it comes to these little rigs. Carefully...

    OB Approved US Comms - An Introduction to your communication options

    Thank you for this awesome breakdown of the comms options available to our dear neighbors from the south. I'm always so jelly of GMRS rules in the US. In Canada, we're relegated to the same crappy specs for GMRS as you list here for FRS. Those of us who don't want to pay a license fee are...

    2012 Nissan Juke AWD/CVT

    I think probably what this represents is the way time and technology march on and things improve and bugs get worked out. Long ago, people used to slag automatic transmissions as unreliable and prone to failure, as well as being prone to running away on steep descents, and while that was true...

    Horror Stories and getting in over your head on the Trail.

    Dang, that's harrowing! Knowing your terrain/climate is important too. We generally don't get rhat sort of flash flooding in my part of the world, but I know it's very common in some places.

    Vancouver Island Members?

    I for one adore this plan, and I would definitely try to make it out for such an event, and I'd try to bring along some of my adventure buddies as well.

    Greetings from Michigan

    Welcome aboard! Glad to have you. I jave to agree with your assessment - best to dump extraneous weight.bi resolved early never to put anything in or on my rig that wasn't useful. In my case, with my tiny 4wd, it's more out of necessity than with most.
