    I Found it in the Woods

    Again in Idaho I stopped at this old cabin, took a walk across a meadow as I could hear the river a few hundred yards away. I walked upstream a ways and found this soaking tub, the black hose went upstream further and was used to fill the tub. Under the tub was dug out for a fire pit, nothing...

    I Found it in the Woods

    While exploring deep in the mountains up in Idaho I pulled the Jeep off to the side of the trail next to a small stream, walk up the steam a ways and decided some ice cold water splashed on my face would be refreshing. As I was leaning over I spotted something in the water, I reached in to pull...

    2005 4x4 Chinook Glacier E-450 v10

    Thats a good question, not 100% sure as we never rode with passengers. The sofa had seatbelts and I'm pretty sure the dinette had them as well.

    2005 4x4 Chinook Glacier E-450 v10

    The build quality is second to none, the price new reflected that. I was able to find a garage kept example, took it to Quadvan in Portland for the 4X4 conversion. As it turned out, Quadvan did many of the conversions for Chinook back in the day and are very familiar with the ins and outs of the...

    2005 4x4 Chinook Glacier E-450 v10

    I had a 2005 Chinook a few years back, the thing was built like a tank and never had any problems with anything falling apart or breaking. The rear overhang is something you need to be mindful of and would be the limiting factor on some trails. Another factor is the width, if the trail starts...
