    How to camp with dogs!

    Yeah. Our trainer explained that was the point of the lead training away from the other stimulus, since that’s how he was before. Sniffing and chasing down anything he could try and find. The training seemed to work pretty well for us and I don’t regret the time put in. Don’t get me wrong...

    How to camp with dogs!

    Oh did we have problems with this early on. Being over 100lbs at a year old, and anticipating the arrival of our daughter, we invested in some pretty dedicated training… which along the walking on a lead front included using a slip-type lead and taking our pup to the far corner of the local...

    How to camp with dogs!

    Our family “pup” is a 130lb mastiff mix. He’s been through Canada to the lower48 and back, plus all the camping adventures. Crossing borders, I always carry his vet paperwork, as others have said. Never been asked elsewhere. Food (depending on length of trip) is usually in anything from a 2gal...

    Can we talk coffee brewing?

    Aero press for all the reasons above. Depending on the trip, we may take the pour over with paper filters, the French press, and/or the percolator as well. But generally the aero press, one other “multi-serving” option, and via packets are always in the truck.

    For packing clothing...

    Thank you, guys! Can’t wait to try out the kitchen bag next summer. Got it packed but haven’t gotten to play with it in the woods yet.

    For packing clothing...

    So… just have to say that I’m unbelievably stoked with this so far as a flight/travel bag. It goes in the aircraft with me daily with all the stuff I’d need for 1-2days securely inside and I’ve bounced around on a couple few-day trips with it recently and it’s been fantastic. After spending so...

    Post up your drawer/storage system

    Got the interior ARE rack modified a little. Added a mid-cross span just wider than our REI folding camp table, threw a piece of aluminum between that and the front span, and secured a net… now our table resides up and completely out of the way with room to stash other stuff up next to it in the...

    😍 Nice shot. Cold foot was an epicenter of helicopter activity last summer due to the Ambler Road project.

    Texas to Alaska to Texas. 2020 Honda Accord Hybrid driving on the Dalton Highway and the Dempster Highway. July/August 2023.

    What an awesome trip report and well documented! Glad you had such a great time. AK is a special place for sure (we live just outside of Anchorage…. I’m actually driving up twice from ND in the next 6 weeks. I’ll probably spend your total fuel budget just getting my power wagon up there 😂). But...

    Refrigerators

    We bought once cried once. ARB zero 73L It’s been fantastic. Food for three or more for several days. Beer cold. Ice for cocktails. I put in a 100w solar panel and 110ah battery, mainly for the fridge. Served us well all summer. Wife approved. Seriously one of the best investments we’ve made...

    “Hermes” 2007 Xterra Build thread

    After spending last winter keeping some of the ground on our property snow-free (left snow pile)…. Got a chance to go play last month…. Looking forward to getting some time and garage space to tinker. It’s time for new rubber, and that has me thinking about trimming sheet metal, messing with...

    Let’s see some POWER WAGONS!

    A few pictures since we’ve been in North Dakota. Sold the habitat. Back to fiberglass canopy. Still having fun.

    General gripe

    Totally depends on what I’m doing. Skiing? TNF has done me well for years. I also had great luck with arcteryx and helly Hansen (issued uniforms when I worked as a ski instructor). Rain? My current jacket is Kathmandu and I love it. But it’s nearly 10 years old and probably only has a couple...

    After 8 years in a full size, moving back to a mid-size - Recommendations?

    Don’t do it. It’s a trap. “Snow” is the universal word for happiness in at least 450 languages.

    7P or other training schools

    I don’t know of 7P, but assume you’re looking for skills and recovery Training? I’ve known Matt at On Trail Training (Colorado front range) for years through our co-involvement in Stay The Trail Colorado and highly recommend his services. Maybe reach out to them...

    After 8 years in a full size, moving back to a mid-size - Recommendations?

    Oh, that’s it? 😂 This was a year ago at our house. There’s a titan-swapped xterra under that left pile. 🤣🤦🏼‍♂️ But I certainly hear ya. Wife’s car lives in the garage. Xterra generally does too. Power wagon doesn’t fit… so I’d love to have a pole barn or full heated separate shop for it. But...
