Indeed good luck fellas. Things have also moderated from the insane temperatures seen a couple weeks back in the far north. Southern Alberta has essentially no snow left and we were basking here around +10c / 50ºF on the weekend so ours is mostly gone also. Still cooler further north but nothing like it was.
A collegue of mine was up volunteering for 13 days at the Canada Winter Games in Whitehorse, Yukon through that insane cold spell. They've moderated nicely there (now that the games are over of course) and are looking at 0ºC / 32ºF by the end of this week - a far cry from minus 45 for sure.

On the road!
We are rollin! :rally_guys:
I am posting en route. The wireless connection is working pretty fast out here in northern AZ. We are moving towards Kingman and Vegas at the moment. The laptop with the RAM mount is really going to help us keep in touch and get some work done as we make our way north.
It was unbelievably warm today in Prescott... hard to believe we'll be in the cold before the week is out.
Thanks for the info on the radio. I will hopefully be able to schedule some comm's with you guys after we get through Edmonton.
Regarding the LED lights, I aplogize that we don't have the info on them right now. But when we get back we can look that up for you. I know they are out of Germany.
Stay tuned...

Question for the Expedition: Were you fellas still possibly having a joinable dinner in Canmore? For that matter any breakfast / lunch / dinner from there to Edmonton where you'd welcome a guest?
Dumb-Azz question for the house: Can someone tune in a raw wireless rookie in layman's terms how the boys are on-line in a mobile vehicle connecting to the world with a notebook? This is a direction I wish to go and seriously don't know what technology I should even be researching. A quick guiding hand here would be much appreciated. Many thanks.

Good luck, have fun, and I hope you get into Canada!!! lol
Last summer two friends of ours in an RV were denied entrance because they made the mistake of telling the border guy that they were butterfly collectors and that's what they were going to do in Canada. Something about not allowing taking or destroying natural resources!! You just never know...but you don't even want to think about being turned back at the border!!
