Ok, decision made... Snow1 is headed to Lookout Pass for a 3 night ski trip.

Anthony Lakes is on my 'hit' list this winter for sure. Meant to get out there last year but something always drew me elsewhere.

Ski rack is latched down and studded tires all around. A can of traction aid (kitty litter) and the heat tape is on the sink drain pipe. Anticipating opening day on one of the local hills this weekend. It looks like Crystal will be first but Hoodoo or White Pass may too. I tend to shy away...

Took the kids for a late season fishing trip to the Deschutes then came home and had a great couple evenings in the workshop on my radio install. Put a TYT TH7800 Dual Band with a TRAM NMO antenna on the roof rack. First experience using CHIRP and it was effortless downloads.

2650 B series. Love it! I've found more projects then I ever knew I had to do since I got it!

One thing I hated about the old camper was taking it on and off to keep it out of the weather and UV so I decided to build Trout1 a place to live. Set the concrete and posts last week, built the implement shed this weekend. It'll get shingles and finish up the gutters this week and painted to...

I take a clear baggie, cut it into a square the size of one of the ceiling lights in the camper. Tape it on with painters tape on two edges and paint on a layer of Tangle-Trap. Leave the light on and turn off the rest and the bugs get stuck. I have also used this stuff on a clear disposable...

I use clips for in line water filters screwed to the ceiling to hold my rod tubes.

Milk crates..... Super durable, stackable and inexpensive on Craigslist. You can see what's inside through the slots when they are stacked together and double as functional campsite furniture. Three of four high in the back, bungee them together so they dont shift or fall.... You get the idea

Continuing with the Trout1 Project. The front bumper got installed and the 12k winch tucked away nicely inside. Also spend a day in the workshop fabing a roof rack to take up the space between the cab roof and the cabover bed of the csamper. The rack serves a few purposes; a minor wind...

Hah, funny, I Just ordered one of those on ebay this last weekend. It has little lights to guide my midnight urges to push snow.

Good Day All, I have a few things up for grabs to help further fund the Trout1 Project. Local (vancouver/portland) pickup only, sorry. Fab Fours Winch Mount $450 https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/pts/6289879370.html Tork-Lift Frame Mount Camper Brackets and Quickdraw Turnbuckles $600...

For you Toyota fans with a welder: http://nwtrailinnovations.com/toyota-bumpers

I have a few days off for a five night adventure. Looking to explore some newer territory. Anyone have suggestions for a good route and maybe some mid September fly fishing, lake or river, in the Olympics?

The battery compartment is vented.

Got the Iron Horse bumper out on the rear of the Titan and decided to weld on some eyes as the down points. I think they turned out great. Looks better then drilling in an eye bolt and does not stick out the side like the bolt on plates. Also put on the Trasharoo and brackets for the add...

Quick after dinner mod. Took out the factory battery box and was just able to fit in two Trojan T125s to up the amp hours on those extended dry camping trips.

It's been a busy couple of weeks on Amazon and Ebay. The ARB 2500 awning arrived and got installed. Fits perfect. Due to arrive this weekend are front and rear Iron Cross bumpers and a slew of LED lights. I also got done with all the measurements to get some CNC plate cut for fuel and water...

Annual Pig Roast Day is here on the homestead. Due to the dry summer I decided to invest in a commercial roaster. For efficiency it's great but I love my open pit rotisserie for the essence of the event.

I have spend a couple of nights in the camper so far and I continue to find things I like. For instance, the soft wall is superior. It is the 'thermal' pack and its one peice system is seamlessly attached to the roof and frame skin. My Palomino had a four pannel system zipped together. The...

Installed my single Titan Rod Vault today. I secured it through the wall panel and bolted it together. I used solid round stock HtP plastic with a hole drilled through it to create a standoff from the wall to clear the fridge vent cover

The more I personalize my Caribou, the more impressed i am with the workmanship from Outfitter. The exterior sidewalls are sealed nicely and I have yet to find a studder gap in the trim caulking. I like it that the sink drain is on the underside of the shell as is the shore power outlet. One...

Plenty of room in the lower cabinet for the porta potty and my Honda eu1000 generator

Added a 24 inch Smart TV

With the standard queen mattress that came with the camera i could not fit my memory foam topper. So I replaced it with 3 inch foam, added the topper and now I can close the roof and leave the bed made
