Did you know that it used to take five days by stage coach to travel from Chicago to Detroit along US-12? (Today the journey only takes five hours.) Join us as we step over the threshold of history into The Walker Tavern where people had received "room and board."

They used to have civil war reenactments there at Walker Tavern.
We would pass it every trip headed to either Cement City Harley Davidson or Wamplers Lake for camping.
Oh hey y'all. In all the wilderness expedition hoopla, Da Viking forgot to share Saturday's video. It's about a tornado that ripped through a major Michigan City, just a few years ago.

It was a very interesting episode thank you for all your hard work !!
Hey guys, Da Viking is back from "Galavanting" (as Poppins calls it) in northern Ontario. Finding an overland route through the Algoma Wilderness was a success. We are planning to have a video ready in a couple of weeks. Since we could only share photos while in the bush via satellite, here are a few more now that we have access to the internet.

It would be nice to see a in depth video of your rig and the electronics and communications you use
You were probably within a few hundred yards of a Sasquatch at some point..🤣 Seriously though, that looks like an awesome trip. Can't wait to see the video!
Looks like quite the adventure!
Mission Accomplished! We've made it across the Algoma Hinterlands and Algoma Highlands on nothing buut remote wilderness bush roads. 131 miles and almost 20 hours of moving over 2 days The weather has turned bad, so not a moment too soon. It was a rewarding trip.

where is this? up in canada?
Cannot wait to see the story!!!!!
Get back safe.. Tammy & I want to have you & Martha over for bbq next week! Actually footage of me warming up the grill! lol!
A few washouts on the unmapped portion of the route. Having a trailer requires much more care, but helps prove the routes passability. 97 miles down, 40 miles to go.

My XJ is jealous of you guys!
What kind of trailer is that, if you don’t mind my asking?
I once had my eye on a Taxa Tigermoth. How did it hold up on the journey?
