    1999 Honda CR-V - "Ganbaru"

    Hello all, Figured I'd start a build thread even though not a ton of progress has been made on this rig of mine. I figure it's as much a "to do" list for me as it is sharing my journey building up the CR-V with you guys. My rig is, as mentioned, a '99 CR-V. The CR-V debuted in 1997 and...

    Squamish to Gibsons: The Mythical Track

    I heard about this intriguing little legend of BC, that there's a mysterious and well hidden 4wd track that somehow leads from Squamish area to Gibsons on the sunshine coast. Many tell stories of "someone they knew" who did it in their rusty old Subaru and such, but nobody seems to be able to...

    A Wander Up Fraser Canyon - In search of the past

    Hello Overland Bounders! I thought I'd share a little 1 day adventure I just took with a good buddy of mine. Our objective was to explore the seldom-trodden paths of the famous Fraser Canyon. Having driven the canyon many times with my family as a child, I, like most folks, had really only...

    70 Series Troopy import to NA from Europe?

    Hello, I'm playing with the idea of possibly importing a LHD 70 series Land Cruiser troopy from somewhere in europe, and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience buying vehicles from overseas. If I do eventually buy one, this would be quite a ways in the future, but I wanted to do some...

    Lift springs - shocks?

    Hello, I've got a 99 CRV that I eventually plan to install the OME 2" spring lift kit and a set of Bilstein shocks. I wanted to know, do I need to try to find shocks that are 2" taller than normal, or is the natural shock travel sufficient to accommodate the 2" lift springs? Forgive me if this...

    Harrison to Pemberton FSR 11Aug2018 - (2019 update)

    Hey BC Overlanders! I'm really itching to do the Harrison - Pemberton FSR route on August 11th, but all my usual wheeling buddies have bailed on me or are tied up. I know that there's a washout at 56km at the bridge over Bremner creek, but my research indicates that BC4WD association has...

    Greetings from the coastal BC mountains!

    Seems like everyone's done one of these, so figured I would too, since I'm killing time waiting for something at the moment. Life long BC boy here, served in the army, currently a 10+ year law enforcement officer. I recently got interested in 4wd and off roading when I bought a house in the...

    Tiny trip in a Tiny Vehicle

    Hello all. This trip is nothing major, but the views are so spectacular and the area so accessible that I wanted to share. I did an overnight trip to the top of Windy Knob Loop in Chilliwack, BC. I went solo, which I normally wouldn't do, but the area is actually mostly within cell coverage and...

    #CRVNATION - CR-V'ers Unite!

    Hey all, I'm fairly new here, and I'd love to see if there are any others out there rocking their CR-V off road on adventures. Here's mine: I've owned a lot of vehicles before, but there have been precious few I really loved. My 2006 Dodge Charger was one, and this one is another. This thing...
