Second adventure cat I've seen, amazingly lol Awesome cat.

I always run about 18-20 PSI, never had any issues with beads rolling. I don't think you typically have to worry until you get to the 10 and below range.

My biggest issue with sleeping inside the rig is ventilation/bug screens. You need a way to let air circulate, especially in winter, to prevent the inside getting totally damp with condensation, but you also need to keep the skeeters and other creepy crawlies from eating you alive...

I can go about 550km on 60L of fuel if I push it right to the end, so about 9.16km/L I believe. If I'm not mistaken, that comes out to about 35.54 MPG. I find L/100km an idiotic measurement, so I don't use it lol.

I've always had a strong affinity for everything Victorian, so that place speaks to me.

Unrelated note, Port Townsend is my hands down favourite place in WA state. :D

Awesome! Welcome aboard, brother! I'm glad you shared these. You should consider adding an OB badge to that beast of a 4x4 you've got :D

Funny you should mention that, because after the fact, in looking back at the photos, I noticed they had a Vancouver phone book. I should have looked up my parents, because I bet you anything their number is in there! Lol Maybe some former residents will find this thread. :)

Especially in this location, the vegetation grows in at an incredible rate. All the back yards in Kitsault were overrun with 5 foot high weeds anywhere the caretakers weren't constantly battling to keep them at bay. There's definitely something amazing about the direct link to the past and the...

As was previously mentioned, we noticed the overgrown track leading up to Dolly Varden House on our way in, not realizing what lay at the top of it. Now, acting on a tip from our friendly local, we headed up into the bush and without much difficulty we were quickly greeted with the imposing...

Thanks for the kind words you guys! Sorry it's taken me so long to get everything posted, but life has been fast and furious lately. Working on the next installment now.

We pressed on through the town and found ourselves in a modern day mining camp at the town's northern outskirts. We had an interesting chat with the miners who informed us that with modern technology, valuable minerals can be extracted from once derelict mines that were unobtainable by miners of...

Good for you, man! Honestly, the Disco is hands down one of the most awesome looking 4wd's ever built. If they were built better and didn't have such major issues, I would buy one in a second. I think you'll enjoy yours when you find it (and you'll curse it bitterly when something fails on you...

That is an absolutely sick RD1. MMMMM Me likey.

The 4wd Action crew switched over from that to Iron Jack a few months back. Perhaps the cause of the decline! lol

Dang, that sucks! Were you really speeding that bad, or is that just the socialist nanny state overstepping itself again?

That's awesome. Great job on the restoration. Seems to be in excellent shape overall, so your effort was well worth it I would say. We used those stoves for winter exercises when I was in the army. They're nearly bomb proof.

Mine was a cheapo from the dollar store for $3. Chinese knockoff basically. So far so good and at least according to the package, it's BPA free :)

I learned some valuable lessons with my rig today (from 2am to 6am). When buddy posts an SOS on the facebook group asking for a tow and says "I just need a tow up a little hill to get out" the questions you must ask are "send me pics of the hill, and how deep in are you?." I got the perception...

If you haven't considered it, I highly recommend a collapsible silicone pour over. I used to use a french press, and I still like it, but it's a severe mess to clean up and wastes a lot of water. The pour over is SO simple and cleans up in literally two seconds with a dribble of water.
