Awesome to hear the little pup is doing well.. We were lucky to find such a great family for her. Rivera del Mar in Loreto is a great place to spend some time. (We are missing that Loreto internet speed now ;) - it's been brutally slow through La Ventana and Los Barilles as the cables have yet...

We drove from San Felipe to GN in 48+5 hrs...spent the night in Puertecitos at Octavios (not worthwhile), and in Bahia Luis Gonzaga at Papa Fernandez (worthwhile) before making the push over the final dirt section of Hwy 5. All total was probably 10 hrs drive time in Van Halen from San Felipe to...

Yea - I hear you man. It's a super interesting stretch of road all the way from Puertecitos. Poor ol' Coco didn't sound like a fan of the new road. He said it'll pass a couple of kms away from where he's located so people will really have to make a point of dropping by to visit his watering...

Baja - Hwy 5 South of San Felipe to Hwy 1 (Puertecitos - Bahia Gonzaga - Chapala) The Highway 5 connection south from San Felipe through Bahia San Luis Gonzaga then across the mountains to the Hwy 1 intersection at Chapala is referred to by the locals as the ‘Camino del Infierno'&#8230...

Lucked out and won a permit to explore the Coyote Butte North Permit Area - home of 'The Wave'.. First day - first ball. 87 people were there at the lottery for 10 spots. Some had been coming every morning for the past 4-7 days.. Awesome.

Van Halen now sits in an RV park in Kanab, a small town on the Utah-Arizona border.. The cold weather has chased us south since the first dusting of snow experienced in the Sawtooth Wilderness exactly one month ago.. Since then we've been steadily checking off the boxes - Craters of the Moon...

Thanks bitoy. Here are a few shots of the interior. I opted to build an outdoor kitchen of sorts - inspired by some of the smaller camping trailer designs that are becoming more and more popular. ie...

Vancouver Island - North Cascades - Central Oregon We left Vancouver Island on September 22nd and crossed the US border at the Peach Arch. After a night in Burlington, WA in the Home Depot parking lot we followed beautiful Highway 20 through the North Cascades in Washington then made our way...

Lillooet - Gold Bridge - Pemberton We spent the last week in Southwestern BC taking the road from Lillooet along Carpenter Lake to Gold Bridge then down the Hurley FSR to Pemberton. There are endless miles of backcountry roads in this part of the province and most of it is in quite rugged...

Awesome rig and unreal pics! Dont see any camp sites like that on this side of the pond

Hey man! Great to see you made the trip into Southern BC. That ferry ride to Port Hardy will be awesome. We are in Squamish now and heading back to Vancouver Island on Monday to spend a couple weeks with my folks. They have a couple acres near Duncan (1 hr north of Victoria - 45 mins south of...

Telegraph Creek Thanks fellas! I appreciate it! A few days ago we made the trip out to Telegraph Creek as we had skipped it on the way up North. This is the first-ever road built in the Cassiar Mountains and one of the more stunning section of road we have travelled on - 20% grades...

Hey! Great to see the updates. Awesome you took that flight to complete the trip to the Arctic Ocean. Here's your pup on the patrol for caribou on that Tombstone Hike... Bruno says hi.
