My prep/cruise to 30 days in the Alaskan bush.

Hung the curtains, they look amazing! I'll have to take a pic of them tomorrow in the daylight.

If people want like curtains, let me know and I can have my friend email you with a quote. She still has all the patterns for mine.

Also, I got my bumper from SolidRockOffroad today and it is BADASS!!! Holy overbuilt! I love it! I sanded and painted them as you can see in the next pictures, you can see my brother starting to take off the ol bumper...

...tomorrow I'll finish mounting it, add the toys and get to trying to figure out where/how I'm going to mount the cb!

Wanted to say thanks to everyone who gave me numbers along the way and offers of help should I need it.

Really cool that people are a) that nice and b) make a guy feel like he's part of a community - I hope I can return the favor to cruisers coming up through my area in the future.

I'll be giving the peeps calls who left me their numbers! Here is mine: 971.235.4190 - if I don't answer, I'm probably away from coverage or sleepin.

Two quick updates before I go... I got the Solid Rock Off-Road bumper installed with the help of my brother (manning the grinder) - had some tag along metal shavings get blasted into my leg - woops!

Done!

Wow, just got home... What a trip... 6,700 miles total. Going to take me a bit to compile pictures and the write up. I fired my 45/70 in anger (er defense) twice, broke a ujoint and nearly had to walk 30 miles in muskeg, got stuck twice in the same day, once took me 4 hours to dig out, pulled on the tail of a wild elk west of fort nelson, met some awesome people along the way - it was the most amazing time ever .

so glad to hear of the awesome trip, and your safe return...can't wait for the full story/pics!!!
