Upgrades for Growing Kids & Expanding Adventures
As our family adventures continue to evolve, so do our needs. With the kids growing rapidly and needing more space, it was time for a few adjustments. Out with the old roof-top cargo basket and in with an iKamper roof-top tent! From tackling ladder issues and rust...
Life on the Road
CAMPING Overlanding is all about experiencing life in the great outdoors, finding that perfect camp spot in quiet isolation while watching the sun go down with you’re favourite drink is what it’s all about.  But it’s not always like this, depending on which country...
Idaho, more than just potatoes
Leaving Yellowstone we retraced our route South before turning off towards Idaho Falls. We spent one night at the Snake River RV park for hot showers, laundry & fill up on fresh water. An interesting place, more like a permanent neighbourhood of RV's than people...
Yellowstone National Park
10 May It's going to be a beautiful day, cold, but no point complaining, we're bundled up in the cab with blankets wearing everything warm that we own. Tim started Bruce early to warm the engine which takes a good 25 mins before the heater starts working. After...

Moab, Utah
May 2nd Sandwiched between Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, lies the town of Moab. Much has changed since I was here 15 years ago. Once a quiet town with a few bike stores, souvenir shops & hippie cafes. Moab's main...
Learning to Kiteboard – by Charley
When Mum & Dad asked if I wanted to learn how to kiteboard this winter, I was a little surprised. I thought I was too young, I hadn't really even thought about it. So I said sure! My Mum & Dad go out kiting every day down here, and love it. My...
Mesa Verde & Newspaper Rock
Valley of the Gods April 28 From Valley of the Gods we could clearly see Monument Valley. All part of the same red-sand desert, maybe, as the crow flies, 20km apart. Just tribal lines dividing them. Those iconic buttes, fins and cliffs have featured in more than 60...
