Hmm... Could have sworn I answered this and re-read it as a post but perhaps I didn't get past preview.

By next spring you mean 2013, yes? A ways off to be sure but I could get into the idea.
I have been fascinated by the idea ever since I read Erebus's thread: Inuvik or bust by expedition Delica.
Have you plotted a course? What are your plans?

4d56 vs. 350 won't be much of a convoy anyways.

My plans are this. Asuuming I get stretch ready (LOL) I will grip it and rip it. By saying, I really don't have any. I have a customer that lives about three hundred miles north of Whitehorse who has invited me (us) to a day or two on his trapline. I have early March in mind but a lot depends on the weather of course.

As for the Convoy comment. I'll wait at the top of every hill for you all!!!!! :-D

since you've got the 6x6 with all that cargo space back there sporting a V8, you can be the wvo supply fuel truck! Just load it with 2 totes. 8-)

Not that I wanna brag but, been there already on our own last winter in January! It's lovely and let me know if you do go, I will give you a few names in Inuvik and Tuk. Very friendly people.

On the other hand, we are thinking of going to Costa Rica next year... now WHO wants to join us?

I'd be interested if I can save up some extra money on top of the amount I'm setting aside for a down payment. :shock:

Fred, start yer own thread! :M

I have often thought about Tuk, I can probably drum up a couple of connexions in Dawson City through a mate of mine, or at least places to go and we do have members on the site from that neck of the toolies, perhaps they will chime in?
