  • 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.

    Tolerance

    Well, one of OB's core principles is that it doesn't matter what you drive, it matters that you get out and adventure. As far as what rig you drive, I think you'd be hard pressed to find any off road community on the interwebs more accepting of different rigs than here. Cheers and enjoy the...

    Coffee Set Ups

    It looks like my cheapo dollar store pour over is a Chinese knock off of that one. It's identical. I was very pleased with mine as well.

    I'm betting I'll be the only guy driving a blue RD1 CR-V too, so there's that lol

    BC Overland Rally - Convoy through West Harrison?

    Not sure about other OB folks, but as soon as I get my spot, I'm going to spike out my base camp flag, so everyone can rally on me if you want lol I'll probably try to get a grassy spot if they're available. If more folks are interested, ray did say he would make a designated area for OB...

    Cancelled Western Canada OB Meetup

    No affirmative responses, so unfortunately I'm having to cancel this event. As it turns out, 4WD Association of BC is hosting a trail run/rec site maintenance day tomorrow, starting at 0930h at the gravel end of the lot at Sasquatch Inn. It's an all day event, and you don't have to be a member...

    Any thing missing? Winter Outings

    Get a good sleeping bag rated for the temps you may encounter. You can increase the thermal efficiency of a bag with a liner added in. When camping in very cold conditions, stoke your "internal furnace" by eating lots of carbs, protein and fats. You'll stay warmer that way, and have the added...

    SVO ....Small Vehicle Overlanding

    To his credit, he didn't get stuck! lol I hear what you're saying though. I would never do that to my CR-V, and it's 20 years old and cost $1800 off craigslist

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Drove up the mountain with my eldest kiddo to collect firewood for upcoming trips and got to test the Bahco Ergoforce Bow Saw while I was at it: The saw is highly recommended, btw. It made relatively short work of cutting through that old log. If I had the time, I would have bucked up the...

    This is AWESOME!!!

    If it works better than Gaia, I'll probably shell out for navigation access. I've held off on paying for Gaia because it's so buggy.

    What is your rigs name

    My 1999 Honda CR-V is named Ganbaru. Ganbaru - A japanese word which literally means "stand firm." It means a kind of dogged perseverance against impossible odds, unwavering determination in the face of extreme difficulty. I chose this name because the CR-V, being a Honda, is obviously a...

    Cancelled Western Canada OB Meetup

    Hey there! I'm going on Thursday, yes. Only thing is, I'm in Chilliwack, so we're coming from opposite directions it seems. If I end up driving the West Harrison FSR through to pemberton, we could maybe meet there or Lillouet (sp?). Otherwise, let's definitely meet up at the Rally! Hoping we get...

    Arizona Land Rovers upcoming events

    I'm sure they would. I know there's a strong contingent of Landies right here in Chilliwack. I watched a vid of them trying to ford the Fraser River to an island (which, amazingly, is apparently possible at certain times) They didn't make it, the crazy buggers lol it looked fun though. The first...

    Inflatable boats/boats

    Realized I never updated this thread. I ended up buying an old Sears Gamefisher 3Hp air cooled outboard for my Intex Mariner 3, and it's perfect. It looks a little rough, it's loud and rumbles around a bit, but I'll tell ya, she starts right up and seems to run with no hiccups so far. The motor...
