    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Hey Mike! What do you have hanging behind the back right side passenger seat? Been looking for something to hold stuff back there. Care to share the details? Thanks.

    After all that snow and brrr temperatures, we finally got a good Chinook wind yesterday....and the lenticular clouds did not disappoint last night. This is the result (and 22°C):

    I am hopeful. 2021 will be the trip to Tuk (already a Rally Event with OB). Was supposed to head up there this year, but Covid changed all that. Keeping fingers and toes crossed that we will be able to venture out -- far and wide -- in 2021. Not sure about your area, or the US, but we had...

    Ha! I’m sure you’ll come up with something fun to do with it! I see your table. Is it all aluminum or a mix of aluminum and wood? I’m adding a wooden tray (slides out for extra cooking room). Never thought that getting the wood treated would be this much of a headache here at my end. Seriously...

    Dehydrated meals - any recommendations?

    I haven't yet found a quick fix for breakfast (like when it's raining out and you really can't go out there and start up the Coleman stove!) but you really want a hot meal... :tired:. Breakfasts offered by Wise Company or AlpineAire are yuk, yuk... I should perhaps try a different brand.

    It's actually looking great! Custom-made table to be installed to my wilco hitchgate is done. Just missing the wood table tray. Have that on order.

    Post your rig

    Posting before and after pics. Before pics were taken in 2016 on the Dempster Highway, and home. All stock with the exception of the roof box, and lights. It worked fine, but after many years ground camping, I was looking for something safer and more comfortable. I also wanted to ensure I was...

    Nice! Would like to see pics and what you're building (kitchen, sleeping area, etc.).

    Dehydrated meals - any recommendations?

    I've tasted Expedition Foods (I shared a bit of my Wise Company and the guest shared a bit of their Expedition Foods). I liked it. I usually bring my own home-cooked dehydrated foods, but also carry a spare pouch or two just in case. I like Wise Company and AlpineAire.

    Dehydrated meals - any recommendations?

    The question is, do you eat it like the good husband you are or ought to be? :smile: Hahaha... just couldn't resist the comment!

    Too comment or not to comment! That is the question

    hahah... yes, our unique socio-politico world views are really our own. We are known as the polite country -- Gosh! we apologize even if we're not at fault (e.g. someone bumps into me in the mall, we apologize -- both people apologize at the same time). Might seem weird to non-Canadians. Also...

    I have only recently (in 2019) started exploring Yellowstone. It is beautiful. I really enjoyed it. My first visit stemmed from a spur of the moment decision, so didn't venture too far given my work commitments (was running out of vacation days). The bit that I did see, I LOVED IT! Hopefully...

    Dehydrated meals - any recommendations?

    I just checked the Jet boil link you posted. Pretty cool. Was looking for something to warm up water during those quick stops (where setting up the propone stove is just a hassle). Thanks for the suggestion.

    Dehydrated meals - any recommendations?

    Absolutely! I use the Nesco. Love it! I even use it outside any camping activities, e.g. every month I make fruit rolls, and fruit slices. I've made chicken stew, beans, chickpeas, etc. with dehydrated meats for my outings. It does take some time to prepare from scratch and to dehydrate, but I...

    Agree, 100%. I prefer to speak with the person privately. In my experience, 95% of the time people respond well. Of course there are those that do not, and continue being obnoxious. I do not attempt any additional ‘teaching moment,’ I just add them to the ‘banned list.’ Next time they try to...
