Love all the pics here. I'm a bit jelly of all the awesome 4wd's available in Australia - we mostly get boring crossover potato cars in NA. We are extremely blessed when it comes to wild places. Where I live in BC there are many times more forestry tracks than there are paved roads, by a large margin.

I have fond memories of visiting Holland with the Canadian Army in 2005 for the 60th anniversary of the liberation. Amazing country and lovely people.

Here's a couple pics from my more recent adventures:

Told ya we have narrow tracks in BC! This poor fella couldn't get out - you can see the broken rope where they tried to pull him out. Pretty sure that truck isn't 4x4, and those are some crappy street tires on it. This track was barely wide enough for the 50" UTV, so not sure what this guy was thinking.

We went by ourselves. Actually, some overland friends scheduled a meeting in Uyuni (Bolivia) on Jan 4, and there started a trip over the "Ruta de las Lagunas" until San Pedro de Atacama (Chile). It was a 4 days crossing deserts, salt deserts, between lakes, volcanoes and specials views of Andes Mountains. It was amazing!!! I highly recommend this trip!!!

Did you guys go on your own, or as part of an organized tour?[/QUOT
