I expect to make it too, with very dirty Deli -- daily commutes in rush hour up/down the Deerfoot will do it. I hate what it is doing to the Deli.

I agree! The road crud is outstanding especially now the weather has warmed up :o

I look forward to seeing you and all the others there! We can compare dirt.

Just want to thank those who came out last night! I had a great time meeting some new people and chatting with those I've met before. Had great chats with some and wish I could've chatted more with those I didn't.

Stats-wise, we had 8 Delicas (3 L300's and 5 L400's) and one Pajero. The prize for the longest distance travelled goes to Cloud Mountain who visited us all the way from Nelson, BC! :shock:
JHelzer came in from Okotoks too, which is a pretty good trek!

I took a couple pics which I will post here later.

For the future, I would like to set one weekday evening aside every month in an attempt to get us together on a more regular basis and am hoping to try to organize a little offroad excursion VERY soon. Carp was kind enough to give me an area map for the Ghost area so I think that would be a great area to explore.

Cheers all!
Ian

Thanks again to those who came out! Those who couldn't make it... we won't shame you too much next time :-D
Stay tuned for a trip out to Ghost/Waiparous... eyeing up a few 4WD trails that are only open from Dec 01 to end of March - not too sure how accessible they are but will chat about it with Carp when I get a chance... looks like it could be a challenging trek and hoping there are some good photo/video ops out there!

Cheers!

We're back last night from NZ so we'll likely make the next one.
And we now own a Deli L400 Jasper in NZ as well. Was tough to kiss her goodnight for 9 months, but that's how our marriage works. ;)
