It‘s a great sleeper and the kitchen works well. Some of the things I am not using, but will be great back in Colorado. The solar panel runs everything with no problems. And I really like not having to set up a tent in the rain! It turns out I brought way too much stuff for the trip, but otherwise the rig is fantastic! One of the nicest things I got was an ARB refrigerator for the camper...

Jim & Coop - those pictures look like a lot more fun than flogging through mud.

Yeah, the mud was on the way back south from the Arctic Ocean — that we wanted to wade in... The dirt road was rough and dusty on the way up and muddy or washed out on the way back down...

^^^ We limped into Whitehorse last night about midnight after eking out a 30mph pace for the last hours. Trailing arm on Coop‘s trailer keeps breaking off. Found a welder in town who vows he can fix it right. Then we will be back on the road.

That does not sound like fun. Hopefully it's the last of any issues. What is the next stop?

the trailing arms are still holding up and the axle has been rewelded and reinforced with straps to I hope keep the vibrations from damaging the welds.
