Well said. I'm old enough to have voted for Trudeau Sr. but that's the last thing I would have ever done. He was as an arrogant narcissist too but at least he was intelligent. Trudeau Jr. ... not even close. I don't know what our American friends know about him but his place on the...
As far as I know there hasn't been any gun fire at any of the protest here. There has been by cowards who have shot up a few buildings away from the protests. My guess is that some are carrying knives.
I'm also 71 and most of my camping is with my wife and about half of what we do is with our tear drop club at Provincial Parks. They're convenient and are a good base for trips out to kayak, bike and/or hike. No one I know feels the need to be armed and besides, it's illegal. I camp on my...
I generally rely on my GPS or Google maps while travelling but definitely carry paper maps as well as books and other resources for the areas I am going to. I often sit and read them at night both to see where I've been and for planning where I'm going.
One of the funniest things I've...
I've never wheeled in the traditional sense but I did a lot of off-roading long before getting into overlanding / off road camping. I raced off road cars back in the 70s. We never wanted to break down of course but it's surprising the amount of abuse you're willing to inflict upon a vehicle...
@Watt_iron - We have one too. We bought it for a couple of reasons. I thought it would be good to carry our kayaks on and we liked that we can stand up in it. I knew it has limitations and really wasn't built for off roading. We use it mainly to get us and our stuff to Provincial...
I have a few option between my Jeeps and trailers. This weekend it was simply the tailgate of my trailer for dining and the tailgate of my Jeep for night time refreshments.
Not quite the same situation but I have an RTT on my trailer and sometimes carry my kayak on top of it. It's a pretty basic tent that I'll just describe as "soft".
I strap soft roof rack pads (link below) to the tent and then the kayak to the pads. They strap down firmly and I've had no...
I'm on my 3rd XJ too, one 4 dr. and two 2 drs. I agree that the 4 drs. are a bit harder to get into, especially for passengers getting into the rear. I wasn't sure I'd want a 2 dr. for camping. I though having rear doors for accessing equipment would be the way to go but it's been fine. I...
