We love kayaks, the Looksha is one of my favourite boats, the other is the Orbit Fish! My wife and I both paddled around taking different boats for demos. Eventually we came to the realization that; a) we could survive a 'divorce boat', and b) we carried way too much stuff for kayaks.. add in...

There is a jeep list floating around that's pretty thorough. I carry metric wrenches, a small set of sockets, screwdrivers, couple pairs of vice clips, some bailing wire, and a handful of zip ties.. Everything fits nicely into an old camera case I had sitting around;

Added hood tie downs for when the boat is up top; Used the ends of a broken ratchet strap - saved my $25 for something else :sunglasses: http://www.paddling.net/guidelines/showArticle.html?403

Nope, I'll help if someone needs it - jump, jerry of gas, tow, etc.. but your not getting in with me.

How timely, the COs just took care of a cougar here in town. Here were their tips; According to the Ministry of Environment, here are some tips to consider if you come into contact with one of the cats: • Never approach a cougar. Although cougars will normally avoid a confrontation, all...

2008 Forester AE, We bought it new and it's been our family daily since then, I've been allowed to do a few things to it, but mods are limited. It goes to work/drops kids during the week, runs TSD rallies for fun on the weekends, and even carries the canoe to the lake in a pinch.

Too bad it's an Lj78 with the 2LT.. Radd has more info.. you see a lot of these Prados and Surfs for cheap prices up here, mostly they are nightmares. http://raddcruisers.ca/vehicle-sales/

Nice, way to go!

Bring: shovel, warm clothes, boots, water, some emergency food.. Don't: Spin your wheels once you're sunk. Do: Dig, stay with your rig, Use your floormats/ branches/ anything you can get your hands on- under the tires if you have to.

QFT right there. We had an Ergo, it was great for getting out and exploring when the kids were little.. These days they insist on being on the ground to get into everything.. fine by me. Our 4 year old tells me when to go "4-low!" from the backseat.. haha and his 2 year old sister argues for "2...

Ha, you know what, I was thinking back to when I put my radio in and at first I was having trouble hitting our local repeater. I borrowed the clubs tuner and was getting crazy high SWR numbers. Unscrewed the NMO and the contact had gotten bent; Carefully pulled it back up and everything was...

The other thing I did last summer with the gang of kids (1yo, 2 3yo, 5yo) was to make a scavenger hunt, got four paper bags, taped something like this on the sides; Then walked around filling the bags.. it was a blast, they had tons of fun, and I got to teach them about plants, tracks, bugs...

We had a snuggie that had no arms and was insulated like a jacket, we called it the worm.. It was perfect for a 6 month old at night - We carried the playpen up until last summer. We have to figure something else out this year. Those same friends use a milkcrate for their kids in the canoe...

We were out camping May long weekend with our 2yr old and 6 month old.. it snowed but luckily we were in the trailer with a furnace.. since then we've been out a dozen times more- they are 4 and 2 now. Our tricks so far; take lots of books, colouring, inside toys, and lots of buckets, shovels...

I have the NMO-2/70B on my FT-7900 and it's been great.. five by five on our local nets.

Cleaned up my trusty Jack-all that was passed to me from my Dad back when I got my first 4x4; I remember his words everytime I get it out; "Stay clear, this jack doesn't care about you." It lives in the back under the canopy out of the way. There aren't many points on our current truck to use...

Yes, a good flashlight can be quite impressive. I too came from a history of maglites and these LEDs are not the same animal. Sitting around the campfire last summer my brother in law pulled out one of these bulb monsters; My little LD22 threw brighter and farther..

I'm a Fenix guy myself, and there is a good chance that Santa will be putting a new PD35 under the tree for me in a few days.. I've got an LD22 in the truck, and have bought all my relatives E41 models last Christmas.
