Re: Your Favorite Boondocking Pics
Crowsnest pass in Southern Alberta. This is the Atlas Stagig area about 6 KM north of Coleman Ab. We are headed to the Yukon this summer for 3 months to do some Jeeping and quading and just general all around good camping. I will also be doing some prospecting as I have a sluce box that I rigged up to carry on my quad and also be powered by the quad, go see if I can make my millions LOLOLOLOLOL. It will be just something fun to occuppy some time, if I even see any color I will be thrilled. am also looking forward to catching some big fish for the smoker. If anyone knows some good boondocing areas anywhere in the Yukon, please let me know, and yes, I always check things out with the Jeep befor I drive the unit in. It will be just me and the wife and our 2 fur kids AKA bear bait :W316Views0likes0CommentsRe: Your Rig
