    Canadian Patrol GQ build up

    Be careful of trying to visit a dam site in the US or Canada. They will see the air tank when they look under your vehicle and have you on the ground with guns aimed at your head :D :D :D

    Extreme Cold Weather Camper ?

    Creature comfort???? I admit openly that I have turned into a wimp!! I have slept out (read this as spent nights shivering to keep from dieing - no sleep) in -40 in the north and have now turned into one that likes warm places to sleep. Been shooting in Cardston a number of times at the...

    Extreme Cold Weather Camper ?

    Well a couple of things; First, as mentioned by others, something that is WELL insulated is a great idea. If you are building or having built for you make sure that you get thermo pane windows as well, no sense in great insulation and having it escape out the windows. If you are buying used...

    Our "new" Tiger...

    We use a Buddy as well to save on batteries when camping. Also great to have if you want/need to work outside as they pump a lot of heat for a small unit. Only big problem is the moisture that they produce, would love to have a vented cat to remove the moisture and save on having windows open...

    Giving kids a bath while camping - solutions?

    If we are traveling with my wife then we try and hit a campground with a shower every two or three days. If it is me and the boys we have lakes and streams in many places. All I have to tell my 7 year old is that Survivorman would just use the stream and he is in, have to be careful because he...

    4 season Pop-up?

    Some good ideas, the biggest thing that I found with an inside shower in the winter was the moisture. I run my TC without water in the tanks in the winter. Really wish I has a cassette toilet for the cold weather (a great option) I know a few guys that use pop ups in the winter. Some love...

    Great Expo Pants

    I live in 511 Tactical pants. Love the pockets, the wear and the fit. The black work great for when I am working, I can move in them and they look good. The fleece lined are great for cold weather. Price is a little high but they stand up to the abuse. Have a Tac-lite but find they are very...

    Drying Clothes

    I thought of this as well. I saw a 12V interior car heater a long time ago that I thought that I could set up on the floor of the truck. Then hang something above it to hang the gloves, hats, etc on.

    bathrooms?

    Try here for more information. http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/listings/forum/27.cfm I have a Northern Lite, has nice bathroom (for a short person) - toilet, sink, shower (removed shower as there just is not enough room IMHO). Watch the weight (the biggest issue) as units can...

    Drying Clothes

    My boys and I camp in all weather conditions. In the winter the biggest problem is drying out clothes that have gotten wet (usually very wet as the boys love to play in the snow). Have tried in the camper with us but the humidity is a drawback and they dry slowly. By a fire but many times it...

    Anyone seen this in action

    I would look at a one piece unit (cab and camper attached) with the center seats removed so you can go from the front to the back, to shoot from different windows. I would then have a hatch in the roof that would allow me to exit to the roof so I could shoot from the roof or at least standing...

    Anyone seen this in action

    Sure you could do it, but as others have said why? I use a truck and camper and have never taken the camper off. I drive around with the entire unit and once you do this for a while you will find it is like driving a sports car :smiley_drive: It is a great office, washroom (you are not going...
