My group is likely heading to Tumbler Ridge this spring. Hoping to incorporate mild offroading but itll mostly be a hiking trip once we get there. I'll make a post on here when we schedule it. All ob'ers will be welcome! Sent from my SM-G900W8 using OB Talk mobile app

Just added ya! I'm blackwell_4r Cappy from 410 Expedition is a great guy! I randomly met them up in Whitehorse last summer. Definitely going down for their big meetup in September. @Cappy410

Lucky!!! Great to hear though. Enjoy it!

I've been running an Old Man Emu setup for over 2 years now and have been very happy with it. It's very basic and does the job. I went with heavy coils up front (steel bumper/winch) and mediums for the rear. It carries weight, absorbs the bumps and there's no adjusting or rebuilding. I put...

I'll have to make it down there sometime in the Spring or Summer. Would be fun to grab a coffee with fellow OB'ers

65k miles (105k km's) on the 4Runner. Just did the first transmission fluid change. Haven't replaced any mechanical parts yet, which surprises me for the abuse it takes off road. Hopefully I didn't just jinx myself.

Another vote for Gaia! Just be sure to save the area you're in before going out of service.

I'm using a Stihl MS271 and love it. Never had a problem yet. Would definitely recommend if you're able to carry a larger saw.

Updated!

Can we possibly start a Fat Bike vs Mountain Bike debate in this thread? I'm looking to buy a bike to bring with me on overlanding trips. I am fairly sold on Fat Bikes but I also like the full suspension 29ers. I have not been on a bike in years (at least seriously). Not sure which direction...

Very nice!

This is a great feature Michael!

Great thread. Thanks for all the stories everyone. Mine is fairly simple. Grew up in an 'outdoorsy' family. Instead of going South on vacation my parents packed my siblings and I up and went camping to various provincial parks in Ontario. We were in Scouts (and later I went into Air...
