This question to condensation under an RTT travel cover, when the tent is closed and stored. Living in the PNW and with my RTT in permanent residence on the top of my Discovery , I have noticed moisture build on the tent fabric. I open the RTT every 4 to 6 weeks to prevent this by airing out...

Leo and I were on our week-long off-road camping trip with a few other Land Rover folks in mid July 2023. The weather was hot and dry. We were traveling toward the Kootenays to explore some old mining roads...
I have a couple of options this year either Tuk or Haida Gwaii, both are on the longish side time-wise.
Tuk would be about 24 days from Vancouver up and back and just under 7821 Km round trip.
Hadia Gwaii is about 3600 Km round trip - not including travel on the island itself, plus a ferry ( 8...
7 days 1700 km or about 1056 miles about 800 off road zero issues other than one heater hose clamp vibrating loose. 10 Land rovers of various types, 13 adults, 1 little one and 2 dogs.
My Discovery at 7350 Ft near Perkins Peak, I will do a more complete report later this week.

There is more to come on this once I get my keyboard cable
I used an ancient Garmin Etrex Venture that finally...
With respect to a comment made by @Boostpowered in another post. Made me think about picking lines when driving. As I often travel solo I tend to be very careful about where I go and the lines I pick. So I thought I will do as I suggested and start a topic on this.
Picking a good line is...
The Discovery is fine, the RTT appears fine. My tree aims better than a Stormtrooper 2 hits out of 4 tries. Sorry for the fuzzy pictures I did not let the camera adjust to the temps
Nothing epic here, I just need to get out having finished 3 weeks of fixing the house sewer line.
Generally heading:
East Harrison to Boston Bar
Boston Bar to Lytton following the power line trail - overnighting a Kwoiek Lake
Lytton to Gold bridge along a FSR that follows the river

This was a our 1st trip out as group for this year, and we managed to both get out and get our annual snowflake run in.
