So, I've been kicking around on ExpeditionPortal for a long time - but with work and the usual life chaos never really become very active here. I have threads over on a few other sites too (WranglerForum, OverlandBound), but figured I best post up a thread here too, as it will give me reason to...

This is something I've been cooking up at base camp (and home) for a while now, and I finally took some time to record a video on it. It may not be the healthiest breakfast option, but it's a tasty one. Full write up on the blog here...

I've been offered what seems like a decent deal on a hard shell RTT. It's not a typical brand name (and I'll leave that out for now) - no James B or Autohome tent here. But I'm wondering what makes a quality HS RTT and how to identify it? When I looked at this tent, I questioned the ladder...

Anyone know if Arb awning accessories (mosquito net/room & wind breaks) are all compatible with the Smitybuilt awning? If you have an arb awning and could post photos of the awning header it would be helpful to compare to my smitybuilt awning header.

Anyone with some real-life experience with those ultra portable power packs that can also boost your vehicle? I'm at a point where I'd like extra power in the Jeep - mainly so I can keep things charged over night (cameras/phones), as well as run some area LED lighting at camp. I'd like to jump...

I'm contemplating a dual battery system in my Jeep.. but for a plug n play system, I'm looking at about $1200 for new batteries and the kit. Considering my dual battery system is really for only charging cameras/phones and night lighting around camp, I got to thinking about those portable...

THE DESTINATION: In a quest for photographing wildlife I figured that the Sugar Bowl Grizzly Den in British Columbia would be a sure winner for spotting bears. I set out on a weekend road trip in June of 2013. MAP/ROUTE: (see my blog for maps) DAY 1: I had no idea the trip would be an 8+ hour...

THE DESTINATION: I've been to Drumheller and area a few times now, but never once stopped in at the Atlas Coal Mine. If you're in the area, I'd highly recommend it as a must-see part of your journey through the Alberta Badlands! MAP/ROUTE: It's an easy find from anywhere in Alberta, and there...

THE DESTINATION: The ultimate destination for the weekend (2014-09-01) is Regina, Saskatchewan for a Roughriders football game. I'm not much of a football fan (or really any sports as I have never gotten into that whole sports fanatic stage), but it's always interesting to see the support this...

My first adventure report here, so hopefully formatting and links to Flickr gallery are all ok... same with posting events from 'the past'. I have a busy M-F work week and good weather weekends are spent out exploring. Winter is here so it's time to finish writing up my adventures! The...

So, a couple weeks ago, I bit the bullet and bought my roof top tent to sit on top of my Gobi Stealth rack. Probably my best 'mod' to date -- everyone is asking about it when they see it deployed, plus it's comfortable, and so much less hassle than a ground tent. For those of you with a RTT...
