Oh the joys of blinding firing shot guns everywhere. shotgun shell litter by e j, on Flickr A recent trail cleanup here in British Columbia netted about 3000 pounds of EMPTY shotgun shells. Can you imagine the amount of lead everywhere? Sadly it's along a lake, so it's slowly poisoning the...

I've got this new 'favorite' spot along the Fraser River in BC - but it is unfortunately a haven for weekend warriors out quading and tearing up the place. I really wanted a nice clean camp site and although the location was perfect, here was the fire pit. I really don't understand why...

I'm sure nobody really wants to see this, but it may be the best way to raise awareness of #TreadLightly and to pack out what you've packed in. Let's see what you've found for dirty camp sites, and what you did to make it better. I'd personally like to challenge each and everyone here to...

From a trail run this past Sunday. waiting to go by e j, on Flickr I have the video on Youtube (link) for those interested in it.

It's not a vehicle specific piece of gear, but wow, this portable LED light is really great. It's got all the features I could ask for light long battery life, USB chargeable, USB charging (for your phone/etc), color temps, dimmable and "mountable". Check out the video and see my thoughts...

Here's the VagabondExpedition Jeep - now, I don't normally run like this - I'm sitting parked here, monitoring a storm system I'm chasing. The angle of the photo also makes it look like one big blind spot, but it's really not. The VagabondExpedition Jeep Cockpit by e j, on Flickr

So many people are surprised that since I parted ways with the roof top tent that I actually sleep inside the rig and have room to do so.. but here, I'm all setup and so is a friend of mine - sleeping inside his rig - which is a two door Jeep. camping out at Abraham Lake, Alberta - two rigs...

Thanks! It's a work in progress - trying to make it better and more regular as much as I can over the next little bit!

Some people love them, some hate them. Here with the VagabondExpedition Jeep, we're a bit in-between, but we do use them. Rotopax. In this video of our expedition Jeep build, you'll see how we are using the Rotopax containers, and learn about a couple of problems we've had and the solutions.

Alberta mud is awful. It's definitely sticky stuff.

I'm South - that photo was from Slave Lake. I should venture further North for a bit before the heart of winter hits.. I miss doing Northern Light photography from when I was in Alberta.

Stirring up a slightly older thread here, but bought Smittybilt ones quite some time ago as MaxTrax were just too cost prohibitive to get them in Canada. I used my Smittybilt ones for the first time the other day, and I'm impressed. It took me longer to remove them from my roof mount than to...
