Got the ROAM boxes mounted on the roof rack, they look a bit tall to me but I’m not planning on leaving them on all the time. Gives me 180L of storage which will be nice when I’m trying to camp with 2 humans and a 135lb dog. The SAAS. Pillar Pod is a great fit, I had to do some very minor adjustments with a file to get it perfect but now that it’s installed it looks very OEM, I’ll probably paint it to match the grey eventually. The 3rd gauge pod is just a cheap plastic generic mount for a dual battery gauge. Fits pretty clean to between the window and side of the dash. Not something I’ll need to look at a ton so I don’t mind it being less visible.

Plan to do the pass tomorrow, going Kimberly to Crawford Bay, so I’ll let you know the conditions.

Tried to make it up to Farnham Glacier today but still some snow and rock debris on the trail.

That’s awesome! Let me know how it goes, if you’re looking to get out shoot me a PM

Next time I’m out this way I’ll get in touch, was just in the valley for the week visiting, heading back to the lower mainland the loooong way tomorrow.

Pass is all clear, no snow on the trail at all. People have been through and cleared all the fallen trees.

Ended up dropping my tire pressures to around 23 psi (hot), since the trail up to the peak was shaking me apart lol

Pulled the front porch off this weekend, if I didn’t care about mounting a winch or the deer and elk that are more common than people around here I’d be tempted to leave it like this..

I guess it’s been a while with no update. Nothing crazy to report, fine tuning the camping setup, new pup in the family and a couple “work” trips
Down to the coast this summer. Life is good

Very cool storage.
