    Will I hate not having a winch for Overland?

    Overall I agree with everything stated here, while a winch does not need to be first priority, it should be on the list, especially as you stated you do the majority of your trips alone. I didn't have on for the first 3 years of owning the FJ, and while I didn't "need" it, I did have to be...

    Overland specific pricing

    I'm all for companies making a "fair" profit, but a lot of the specialty companies seem to add a fairly hefty markup, overlanding or not. The made locally vs made in China(or other overseas location) argument hardly holds water anymore with so many automated factories and processes. It's...

    Any Hunters Among Us?

    Had my first season hunting in Manitoba, just shot my first muzzle-loader buck. Not really any hills here sadly. Also enjoy hunting wild turkey, and grouse. Looking at maybe trying for an elk draw this year. Also have hunted Hardwood forests in Ontario, and most of Northern BC where I grew up.

    OB Approved Chain Saws

    I just keep my oil in the original jug. Probably a bit of overkill to drag around that much.

    Kawka Info?

    Decided to pass on it this trip. Rained all weekend, and was forecasted to rain the entire time we would've been there. On top of which, I couldn't find anyone else to go. :sob: O well, maybe next time.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Loaded up the rig for 3 weeks in the mountains, and the delivery guy showed up with my fridge jacket for the Wytner! Good timing.

    OB Approved Camping with Firearms

    I guess you can never rule out the human element, but as far as wild animals, a bit of knowledge is far more useful to most people than a gun would be. I grew up in grizzly territory in central BC, and only had a couple close encounters with them. One was a young male grizzly that came to check...
