We bought one last year, and I honestly wasn't sure if it would live up to the hype or not. A year later, and it is our main cooking source and pretty much our only outdoor cooking source. We use it all the time, it set up and breaks down easily and quickly. I leave the burner attached for one...
We will be coming in on Hwy99 via Lillooet. And will be chilling with the Four Wheel Camper owners crew at the BCOR. Looking forward to a good time, the BCOR was great last year and should be even better this year.
Likely won't be any snow. We had minimal snow this year, and reports are most of it is gone already. By all accounts we are in for an extremely dry hot summer, so if anything be prepared for fires, and keep an eye out for possible back-country travel bans if the fires are really bad.
We live in a rattlesnake region, and I'm terrified of snakes, so I always keep an eye out. In the summer we stay away from areas that are known as "snaky" and do ourcamping and hiking at higher elevations. To add to the fun, one of our dogs is deaf, so we really have to watch out for her when...
I know that you can stuff a 35" under the Tundra if you trim back the tire brackets underneath...same may go for your truck.
Personally speaking, I have nothing but good to day about my Hitchgate. I've had it on the truck full-time for 2 years and have been all over with it, with no issues...
Please do not do this. You have to declare all firearms when crossing into Canada, do your research and have correct paperwork, and can only bring firearms into Canada that are legal here. If you get caught trying to sneak any firearm into Canada you are rightfully fudged.
Bringing handguns...
I bought a UCO Flatpack Portable Grill and am loving it. Cooks a mean steak. The best results I've had is with plain old scavenged wood from the forest.

Less is more is really relative and dependent on where we plan on going and what may happen to prevent our safe return home. Sometimes we most certainly need all that stuff to go and get back. Not that I don't put some thought into what "all that stuff is" and do my level best to keep some...
That's a tough call. I think that if I went with a flatbed I'd probably go with a 1 ton of some sort. That of course, raises questions of which truck, something I don't even care to consider right now. I've seen a couple Tundra flatbed builds now, so it will be interesting to see if the...
You could sleep a regular sized adult on the front dinette bed. Our two dogs (55 & 75 pounds) sleep on it with lots of room. In a perfect world, if I had funds to do it all over again I'd really consider the flatbed Hawk, the side door entry and having the dinette at the rear away from the bed...
No complaints about choosing a Tundra at all. The primary reason I picked the Tundra was due to it's reliability pedigree. I appreciate the power it has, and the added room of a full size truck makes long trips far more comfortable than my previous "mid-size" Xterra. Everything has a compromise...
I'll take my Scepter MFC's over anything out there. I've had them at extreme high and cold temperatures , big elevation changes, strapped them to a roof rack on their side even and never had any issues at all. I'm pretty sure you could drive over them without much problem. They never leak, and...
Just make sure to do yourself a favor and stop at the Cinnamon Bun Centre Of The Galactic Cluster on your way up or down. (You won't regret it)

A quick and random find on my way home from a work thing in Vancouver last week. I sure love my BC. 1/2 hour off the Highway and up an FSR and I had this all to myself for the evening.
Our dogs were quite upset and confused as yo why they were not allowed in a couple National Parks we visited, especially since they are far better behaved and respectful and appreciative of nature than hoomans seem to be. I can't recall the last time a dog left a bag of garbage or household...
Pliers. Any and all forms. Didn't realize until I was laying under my truck outside of Whitehorse last summer needing a pair.
Needless to say when we finally managed to get into Whitehorse the next day , I went straight to Canadian tire and bought every style of pair of pliers i could...
