Hello From Western Canada

Postby GregB_00XJ » Sat Jan 11, 2014 11:53 pm

Hello All,
Long time lurker, first time poster. I have been on this site dozens if not hundreds of times, lots of times following others build threads or by finding pics and threads linked in places like Expedition Portal etc. Lots of good info and builds on here. I am a trailer owner, and have been working on my project for a couple of years now. It is more offroad trailer than travel trailer, but on road or offroad...it still gets towed and I still camp in it! I also have a more conventional travel trailer, a 2009 Coachman Clipper 108 ST tent trailer that the family and I enjoy 5-6 trips a season in.

Enough words, here are some pics.

CDN M101:

-1996 CDN M101 Canadian Military Surplus 1/4 ton utility trailer
-31" AT's on wheels matching my tow vehicle (2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ)
-Custom wood/glass (West System Epoxy) lid made by Wavebreaker here on the forum
-Custom kitchen setup with on board on demand hot water
-13 gal fresh water internal tank
-Power/lights
-Cascadia Vehicle Tents CVT Mt Hood 4 person RTT
-So much more...

Welcome Greg! That's quite a trailer you got there, I used to have one of those old surplus trailers set up for hunting that I towed to Arizona for 15 plus years Quail hunting. I ended up selling it because it just sat after cancer got the best of my Quail hunting and best buddy..kinda took the wind out of my sail so to speak. It went to a good home to a fella in San Jose Ca who was going to drive to Alaska with his wife (they were new empty nester's)and it fit his bill perfectly. Did some Moose hunting up around Prince George/Vanderhoove in the early 80's and always wanted to get up to that area again...someday it will happen. Again welcome and keep the pic's from the trip's coming to us....Larry
