    Old Nipissing Road

    An Adventure is an adventure, it does not need to be the most epic of all time ;) Colorado and destinations like that sure look cool but there is a lot to explore around here(Qc-Ont) too.

    Large Dog and RTT

    It's my first season with the RTT, so far so good with the night and morning routine for the dog, but mine is not as heavy as yours. I never had a tent that I can stand up in it, so I'm used to it. Nice truck and beautiful dogs

    Large Dog and RTT

    There is a lot of wildlife where we usually go camping (bears, wolfs, Moose) I would never let my dog sleep outside for safety reasons, The dog love the RTT, it's confy and she's with us. She's used to sleep with us since we have her, so I guess we kind of create that needs for her.

    Large Dog and RTT
