Big Bar ?

The sand is soft and less wind/dust than Churn - but subject to river levels during the Fraser freshet

I personally don't care which location.

with a shovel, a quick evergreen lean-to, and a couple well positioned 2x4s on top of some rocks and you got a nice little chitter.

Time to move the crapper for sure!
Either location is fine by me. I'll be using a roof top tent so we can even change daily if you wish

lets keep the entertainment to $3000 or less this year

Crap, already sounding like a good trip, there better be some off-roading in Europe so I can get it out of my system.

If I can make it, I probably would, might as well make the trip worth while if I already have to do some travelling, but always depends on work though.

It was more of a luge than a bobsled. Damn lucky that tree had a horseshoe nailed to it.
