    Bobcaygeon Recovery

    Not as much fun as running the trails, but a remarkable sense of satisfaction when sitting around the campfire later that night. All were safe and sound, planning to come back stronger! I also love the RRCs. Comfortable and capable.

    Overland cooking station

    @Cappy410 Any thoughts on adjustable legs for when you are on uneven terrain?

    Bobcaygeon Recovery

    Just got an update on the RRC - rear spider gear and front CV were busted. New, bigger, stronger (with lockers) entire rear axle is being installed. New CVs going in the front once the rear is finished. Should be a beast when it hits the trails again!

    Bobcaygeon Recovery

    We left last Friday for a quick run up to the Kawartha area in Central Ontario for a weekend of camping and trails. We had hoped to catch the autumn colours in full display, but we were about a week too early. It was a group of five Jeeps, but we had a very cool diesel Range Rover Classic join...

    Steve & Deb's Cross-Country Adventure

    It's nice when someone helps you out when you're miles from home. That can definitely put you well outside of your comfort zone. Job well done by the service dept. I've been following on Instagram, watching the miles increase with every post. Thanks for sharing.

    Morocco 2015. Round trip.

    That makes sense to me now. Nice work-around for a problem that many vehicles have - a good jacking point for a Hi-Lift.

    I'm jealous! When's the Canadian event??

    Morocco 2015. Round trip.

    Does that slide into the trailer hitch - or how does it lift?

    Thoughts and reasons for your chosen rig

    First, I had a 4-door Suzuki Sidekick. I had a blast with that little thing, running just a skidplate and some slightly bigger tires. After a few small, sporty cars I moved into a Land Rover Freelander with the arrival of our first cookie-smasher. It was great in the snow and mud, but...

    Base Camp Checklist

    If we could break the entire Base Camp Checklist down into 3 - 4 main categories, that would help the 'easily distracted' folks like me. And can we distill the lists down to a few main 'must have' items before loading up with other items? 1. Eating - cooking - food storage - ...

    2004 Chevy Silverado 2500 Crew Cab

    Looks good. I'm surprised there aren't more full-size trucks being used. Maybe we'll start to see more?

    That's Not a Knife...This is a Knife.

    I'm a fan of the Mora Companions, too. I also have a couple of ESEE knives. And there are a whole mess of folders to go along with the fixed blades. I like the folders for everyday use, but as soon as I get out in the bush or on the trail I add a fixed blade to my bag or belt.

    Older generation sequoia

    You can dive headfirst into the Sequoia world at tundraheadquarters or tundrasolutions - both blogs / forums for the tundra-platform vehicles. There are a few manufacturers of aftermarket goodies for that platform. Comfortable vehicles to ride in, unless your an adult in the rearmost seats.

    Expedition Overland Central America

    This episode was the most enjoyable for me to watch, edging out the one with the medical clinic. Lots of off-road / bad road / used-to-be-a-road driving. It was fun to watch the change in the trails once they were soaked with rain. The quality of the production has steadily improved over the...

    Overland Bound Emblems!

    Got rid of the Trail Rated badge. It's a Jeep, that's a given. Now have the Overland Bound badge in it's place.
