Thanks, I got a lot of good comments on the decal. I think most of Canada is a fun area to explore. I need to start planing for a East Coast Trip after the recovery upgrades! They can do that and a lot more! I am still just getting comfy driving this! Will play harder soon! Think north of...

Thanks so much! A Toyota would be welcome on any of my trips. We have had Jeep and Dodge on the last one! Yours would definitely be up for the adventures if you ever get nearby. Might need to bring a much bigger canoe if you bring the whole family, Lol ;)

Excellent photos! Makes me want to plan a trip out there to see it all in person! Thanks for sharing!!!

Had a fun little extra trip with a Pal in his newer stock jeep. Still working on Corrupting him proper! Lol I think mud tires are on order for him! Was fun to see the difference a good set of tires and a locker makes in the trails. I was happy to be able to try out the new navigation system that...

Thanks for the picture link. That looks to be the perfect solution for my needs! The scary part will be how much this all adds to the weight of the vehicle! Lol

Thanks guys. I need to get some better recover gear as I stepped down from two interesting "trails" because of the time/effort a self rescue would have taken. My upgrade are to include the following... Warn Winch- https://www.warn.com/truck/winches/95xp-s_winch.shtml This would be the one that...

You have some great pictures from that trip report. I have been to so many of those spots from the years prior! jhberria- Thanks, the canoe did add a lot to the trip. Was so crazy being up against a glacier while it was making noise! Just watch out for pricing on the ultra light stuff! Ouch...

After a great visit with the Folks it was time to turn around and head East again. A short detour for some rock climbing south of Kamloops near Roche Lake and 4x4ing too then it was time for some heavy miles back to Winnipeg. Roche Lake area for rock climbing and a bit of trails…A big...

Avatar Grove was a neat spot! And the true West coast near the botanical gardens And by Ucluelet and Tofino etc. Including a mortgage burning party with my Folks watching as I burned a copy of the completed loan! Yaa! Having my cake and eating it too! One night in the tent all the...

I could hear the ice moaning within the main glacier and with a few rocks falling from the top overhang it was time to get back to shore Can you tell I was happy with this day? A drive towards Wells Grey Provincial Park ended the day and then the next day was spent exploring the many...

So about that trip west…(real reason for the photo dump above) Decided to give this Xterra a test and see how it would work for longer trips, Winnipeg to the West Coast (Vancouver Island) and back with a few side adventures along the way…Over 5200km in the Xterra at full weight and...

Late with the pics as I have a few month to catch up on for pics so I will keep them short… Just a few from March with trying to corrupt a shooting buddy with the 4x4 stuff, a good test for the tires in loose gravel/sand April was fun as the snowpack was down and the trails were...

The CZ455 is a fine rimefire! Well done on selecting that. A lightweight 2-7x33 scope would be great on top;) For a 20 GA a Rem 870 bought used from the days when they made them nicer would be the best bet. (save you some money too) A shorter barrel is a lot handier too in tight spaces. You can...

Thanks, I hope to have a "few" crazy adventures with this truck! :)

Thanks for the heads up on the spider gears! My days of rebuilding broken lockers and Ring and pinion gears and drive shafts etc. etc. on the trail are hopefully over now that I have calmed down. It is nice to know what the weaker links are just in case I do get energetic during a rock trail. I...

Thanks! I can't tell you how happy I am to hear how well the MT Claws tires do in snow. We get more than enough of that here and it is the limiting factory on back country travel during the winter season! I have gear to camp in -40 but if the snow is too deep I am stuck on where to go. The BFG's...

Thanks guys! theBostonianX- I have very little time left before all the fun trails are under 3 feet of snow so trying to get some trail time in while I can! I do have the basic recovery gear but the winch would be a great addition! I am looking at maXterra's front bumper as the perfect platform...

Part of last weekend's fun....

So I got some mud tires mounted and pictures are up…. Decided to try them out and got stuck right away by dragging my frame rails and skid plates on the frozen mud…. Self-recovery with the come-a-longs and straps and chains etc… One wolf sighting prior to the fun...

Thanks xterraoffroad. Will have more pics soon! Ok, now for the bad news. Was all happy as the melt mod is done, the mud flaps are gone and I was in the local tire dealer ready to go... Then my local dealer tells me that the Interco Super Swamper TSL SX 33x9.5x16's have been sold out for...
