We took a trial run with the travel trailer today, after I swapped the brake controller over from the Xterra. All I can say is wow, what a towing beast. My gawd this thing is built to tow. We head to Oregon at the end of the week, and I'm really looking forward to the drive. Sent from my...

After much soul searching and conversation regarding how we see ourselves wanting to explore that road less travelled in our future, we have decided to make a change. The Xterra has served us well, more than we'll, and we will make sure she goes to a good home that appreciates and uses her to...

I'm afraid that I am going to have to likely back out of this excursion. I just bought a new truck, will be selling the Xterra, and won't have the time to have the new rig set up adequately this year. It's going to be a fun new project, with more of a long range expedition idea to it. I'm a...

We are heading south out of town in a 1/2 hour. Will camp out in the late arrival area tonight and crawl in, in the morning. We will be in an dark grey Xterra with Bc plates, cvt rtt, Canadian flag on the cb antenna and OB flag on the trasharoo. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

I'm glad I stumbled upon this. We've decided to change things up a bit, sell the beloved Xterra and rtt setup and move to a full size 3/4 and 4 wheel camper type setup. I gave to say that after spending a lot of time looking and researching capable 3/4 rigs, I keep getting drawn back to the...

We left ours on all winter, with no issues at all. Opened it up in the spring and it was dry and ready to go. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

Very cool, will be watching for your report. My Wife and I will be making a run to Inuvik and on to Tuk in July 0f 2018. I can't wait. I've lived in BC for 99% of my life and have yet to travel further north than Prince George.

Funny you mentioned it, same thing happened to mine and i was going to fire off a message inquiring about it. I hope the replacement still comes with the added 5 horsepower....it was much loved.

Snow day Sunday

A couple pics ot add to my previous comments. Our campspot with a view up the Mineral Creek Trail. This was on the July 4th weekend, and we awoke to a full frost cover over everything. It was a little chilly overnight, so be prepared. Million dollar view though, and the area to ourselves...

Rotties sure hold a special place in my heart. We do not have one, but out little deaf BC Husky mix is named after her very special cousin Molly. She was my Aunt and Uncles Rottie (one of 4 or 5 in their home at any given time) and was the Rottweiler Welfare Association UK's Mascot of the year a...

I have this universal one. Worked great, mounted it in behind the right taillight. Sent from the Mountains

I've been looking at wanting to go up to Placer Lake for a weekend for a couple of years now. It's looks like a beauty spot to camp out. It's just finding the time. It seems our summer weekends are filling up already. Sent from the Mountains

I was planning on heading to the OB Washington run that weekend, but this seems interesting. Sent from the Mountains

I have 2 Deka Intimidators 9A34R AGM batteries and a T-Max dual battery control. I have yet to have an issue at all. For prolonged camp-outs, I have a 75 watt solar panel attached, and I know I can power my fridge and lights for at least 4 days (and I'm sure more) without running out of power...

That's cool, looking forward to seeing it in August. Sent from the Mountains
