Spencyg, this is an awesome write-up of an awesome trip! is this route fairly easy to map? If so, what maps would you recommend? my wife and I are planning a trip to the Canadian east coast next summer and I would love to run at least some sections of the DRAM.
The DRAM route continues to be dynamic. There are portions of the trip that I wouldn't feel comfortable directing other people to follow for various reasons. I can provide "off the record" consultation as to whether particular roads or routes are viable if you wanted to send along a list of suggested paths. DRAM is an ongoing project, and until I have a viable route from beginning to end, I won't be passing along the "recipe" publicly. All the tools I have used to develop DRAM to this point are open source, and given the report here, there are enough clues to probably lock down 75% of the path we took. Needless to say, much of this trip could be accomplished with a stock AWD platform. There are a few spots however that push even the most modified 4WD vehicles and would destroy anything with less than 12" of ground clearance and full time 4WD capabilities. A trailer in tow would have been a serious problem in spots as well.
