I think it's time again for a week long club run. The old trip reports about taseko run ,2009 are interesting and photo's are awesome.
Anyone up for a trip into that area? Time line I am looking at is middle or 3rd week august, august 14 to 21 or august 21 to 28.
Ronald.
We went on a little weekend trip in the Fraser canyon and decided to take Kookipi fsr back to Harrison.
Going in from Nahatlach lake side there is a lot of logging going on in the first 15 to 20K.
Road is smooth. After the logging area the road is somewhat overgrown with a few minor washouts...
So far i have been fortunate with my truck when it comes to problems. Mostly small mechanical issues which i could fix myself. Last week i run into a gremlin in my ignition system and/or fuel system which i could not figure out because of lack of the proper tools.
So i thought lets go to the...

Went up to the nahatlach fire lookout last weekend. Survived the winter in great condition. Road is clear to the lookout, the road to the meadows is blocked by lots of deadfall. Need a group effort to clear it up. Run into jeff, the native indian framer, who helped with the build. He was also...
I will be there, leaving friday morning/ early afternoon.
I won't be able to make it to the meeting, if you are planning to meet and drive up in convoy, please post.

Being robbed of hard earned property sucks, seems like everybody gets a turn somehow. Be carefull though glenn. Two years back while visiting the in laws in prince george, the alarm of one of their neighbours went of around 10 at night. Two of us got outside and saw some kids run of. We decided...
I ended up buying a Haynes toyota pick up and 4 runner repair manual. (manual #92075 (656)) Frames are different, but lot of mechanical components are the same as RJ 70. Covers the 22 R engine very well. Same for axels. You bassicly have a pick up or 4 runner running gear with a landcruiser...
Spoke to soon. Thought my employer would be oke with the storage for a bit, but he thinks different. To many heavy trucks around, had some issues about liability, 4 months is to long.
Hopefully some one else can help out.

Life is good. Recently we had our annual cold, snowy weather week.
Now back to "Wet" coast. I am sure you are not missing that where you are now! Gives you time to dream up new trips for the upcoming spring and summer. Also time to check over the truck and make some modifications. In case you...
Cruiser guy,
I have one of those Hella disconnects mounted in the feed line to a Warn M8000. Max amps draw for this type of winch is 435. Never had any issues with this set up. Even with "occasionly" heavy winching.
I had the same worries about kids playing with the winch and hurting them self...
Last year during our Mc Kenzie trip i had 3 brand new poly NATO cans on my roof rack in full sun and +/- 30 celsius, filled with gas. They bulged a lot from the heat expansion but never leaked a drop of gas. Next time i will prevent this from happening because the sight of bulged tanks on your...
Hi rob,
If it makes your decision any easier to get a 24 volts puma, i am sure we can work out something for your "old" 12 volt, if you're willing to sell. If so bring it with you to cruiser day and we talk further. You're coming right?
