Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Lets see your camping rig.........

Ivan, I am very sorry to hear of this news.

Hopefully you get MANY more years of use out of the Chinook!

Last Fall chasing elk in the Belts.



I'd like to get the little stove Mackay has but the jetboil works pretty well too. The boy claims this was the best chili he had ever eaten. Made for a great breakfast.

This is a friend's cabin in the bush in northern SK. Spend many weeks there in the summer chasing northerns, lake trout and walleye. Now we have a cabin of our own on this lake. Great place to get away from it all.

Nothing beats boat camping.

Which body of water is that ?

And -yes agree boat camping is great .

Last Fall I sold my late model Tundra/Lance camper to my son who drove it back to Alaska.
I got tired of 10 mpg and a $25K (truck/camper) rig that didn't get used enough. That was a beautiful truck, but the mileage was pathetic.

I went old school with the T100 and Palomino popup. Have had this combo before and loved it.
Only $6K in this rig (truck and camper) and I get an honest 16 mpg.
We'll be hooking up the Lund and heading to northwest Ontario in a few days.

Looks like the Snake river...

Thanks, Sam. This is my third battle with cancer. 1999, 2008 and now lung cancer, When my doctor broke the news to me, he wasn't very optimistic but after several tests, they are feeling that I might have a little more of a chance.

I go back tomorrow for a PET scan and then they will decide on what to do about getting rid of the lousy cancer.


Ivan

Boy that sure puts this other trivial stuff in perspective.

Bigbuck, we'll be lifting you in prayer.

Thanks a lot.

I just got home from the PET scan and by it they found a small brain cancer. Good thing is that doctor said they can get rid of it by one shot of radiation. Makes a guy wonder what might be next.

Keep on movin' Ivan.

This gets me to where I'm going.



This is where I sleep. Not fancy but it's mobile and keeps me dry!

Yep, you've prevailed before...get the radiation tune up knocked down and keep movin'!, .....like a rolling stone.

I'm gonna try hard. That was a low blow today.

A good friend in Colorado battled brain cancer for two years before it got her. I hope I don't have to live like she did.

You sir are in my prayers. You have fought Cancer more than I have but as you know a good attitude goes a long ways.

My Motto has become I had Cancer Cancer never had me.

I wish you all the best Sir.

Enjoy your life. I took my mother in for a CT Scan
and two weeks later she died.
I am definitely going camping this summer.
Prairie dogging is my kind of adventure. I used a Subaru Wagon and a tent for years. Now I sleep in my F150 and a sleeping bag. It is perfect except a bit noisy when it rains on the aluminum topper.

There has got to be a good story to go with this picture!

That is on the upper Columbia.
