Re: Across the Americas in a FJC

you trip is going to be amazing I wish I could do something like this. Looking forward to reading about it as you progress on your journey.

Maybe someday my FJ will get me to a lobster dinner in Maine.

Safe travels!

Re: Across the Americas in a FJC

Since the MacKenzie river ice crossing was not ready we had to fly to Inuvik. Here is the Igloo Church in the winter:



Between Fort McPherson and Eagle Plains is a notorious section the locals call "Hurricane Alley". It has a very even climate: always bad. We were lucky to experience white-out only for brief periods:



I would highly recommend the Dempster in the winter for those looking for a bit of adventure that is not too overwhelming. With good preparation the chances of a bad outcome are practically nil.

After hurricane alley the weather cleared up:



Currently hangin' in Dawson...

Man, this looks beautiful. You should enter this in the artistic FJ contest, or photo of the month contest, or whatever contest available; too bad your roof lights aren't on, it would have been more magical yet.

Sounds like an awesome trip, and needless to say, I'm so completely and utterly jealous.

Perhaps when you have a minute or two, you may tell us how the FJ is holding up on this type of trip. If you have already posted a buildup for your FJ, please point us to it.

Re: Across the Americas in a FJC

Safe travels! This reminds me of the FJ40 story in the FJ Cruiser Issue 1 Toyota issue. Do comment on any hiccups or malfunctions, it'll add to the excitement for us readers.

Re: Across the Americas in a FJC

It seem so eerie and beautiful that 2 FJs would take such remote path in search of the same dream.
