Nice shot and glad you got to join the “club”! I think the current stats are somewhere around 30% of visitors looking for Denali see it at all, and single digits see it from base of the hills to the summit. We had (and are currently in) weeks of “not a chance” territory, at least not from the...

Other than the power wagon limited payload, none really. 35s, the off-road toys that came with it stock, 2 decades of off-road experience and a healthy disregard for clean scratch-free paint means I get my PW mostly where I want to take it.

Thanks. My first time heli camping. Was an end of season employee trip. Pretty fun though. 😂

Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.

Quick fall afternoon adventure to celebrate winter coming.

Some friends from the other side of the globe borrowed the X and did exactly what they should have done with it in AK…. Got it dirty. 😂

My other overland vehicle posing for some chilly pics.

Quick dirt road truck camping trip along the Denali Highway and the Clearwater Mountains last weekend.

This. As someone who has spent a LOT of time with backcountry rangers (both LEO and interpreter/techs) for USFS, BLM, and NPS… I can attest as well that not only do they know the difference and what vehicles are appropriate for what roads/trails, but also a good number of them are extremely...

Not sure if you’re on here, but spotted this sweet 3500 with a Bowen bed up in Alaska near Denali. Very clean rig!

Nice. Makes total sense. It’s not fiberglass but our neighbor just popped a smartcap on his f250 and it looks really nice and certainly has some cool features.

Did you end up looking into the ARE CX HD series canopies?

Fourth for the exped megamat. We got the XL and it’s fantastic for wife and I and the tiny human when she doesn’t want to sleep on her own. Arguably close in comfort to our home mattress.

Nice rig. We have the ARE CX HD on our power wagon, with the internal aluminum framework and 500lb crossbars. Been pretty great. Only things I wish for would be a win door on one side and the fold-down glass on the front. But we got it used as part of a trade, so the price was right

I still use Avenza as well. MVUMs and agency travel maps are the legal definition of open routes, so I tend to stick with them. I’ll cross reference to google maps or another app where necessary or to help with planning.

In the power wagon with the fam… 5gal Home Depot bucket with a lid, kitchen trash bag inside. Usually try to minimize trash before the trip and snack/cab trash goes into the gas station bins. Grocery bag for recyclables to take home. Bucket stays in the bed under the fiberglass shell at night...

I’ll second this. That is amazingly clean and certainly looks meant-to-be-together. Well done. Gonna show my wife this as how we spend her upcoming severance package. 😂

We’ve got a 2018. Daily about 50% of the time when my xterra is up a running. Other than being big and thirsty I don’t mind daily driving it at all. Bought ours with 14k in Oct 2020, now around 73k. Driven to/from lower48 twice. No major issues over that span. I do use it for power wagon things...
