    Thanks!

    I got it from Nat, back when he was still making them. You're better off designing your own now; he's off the net last I checked. If you check his thread, there might be some members that have come out with a new design to continue the offering.

    I thought it was the older one by Nat. The newer one was $189 plus shipping in the GB, and with exchange came out close to $300 CAD shipped to a border location an hour and a half away. :eek:

    I've decided to make my own for my back woods fishing gear, but for a few dollars more than the panel, I bought the CoverKing Tactical (Black Friday sale) that seems to be doing the trick for now. I bought an extra set of packs in black for my fishing gear. The panel will hold the pack rods, which are stuffed in their tubes behind the seat.

    As others have noted, it is beautiful up in Alaska. I sometimes reminisce about the time I spent in Whitehorse as a kid, then think about the long winters, and.... Naaah! ;)

    Cheers!

    I'm running MOLLE panels on my seat backs too; they are extremely functional. The 1st post has some pictures and I have a link to my review of them.

    It is really beautiful up here; I absolutely love it. The winters can be long, that's really my only complaint. I can handle the dry cold; it's the 22 hours of darkness and snow that lasts for months that wears on me. Can't beat the summers up here though.

    Can you post pics of how your winch fits in the bumper? From the backside?

    Looks like it fits like a glove, I can't wait for my front bumper to finally come in. Thanks for the pics!

    Zero clearance issues between the winch and the bumper. I'm glad I could help. I've been waiting for you to post pictures of your bumper installed...

    I'm about 6 weeks into my wait for the bumper so hopefully it'll be here soon!

    Did you explore any of the off-shoots of that trail?

    We did; we ended up traveling west to the Steese highway, then linked back up with the main trail.

    The next step is to link the 55 mile Chena Hot Springs Rd trail with the Three Kings (Fairbanks-Circle Trail).

    It's a TRD shift knob from the Toyota dealership.

    Pictures from an adventure off the Denali Highway, AK.

    The core sampling operation was above 4,700 ft. We drove the CAT trail all the way up the glacier valley to the ragged top of the mountains in the Alaska Range. The pictures don't do it justice.

    Denali Highway is amazing. We drove it a few weeks back. The weather this weekend has been a bummer. Four day weekend, four days of rain.

    It was! We started on the Denali HWY, then took an ATV trail off towards the mountains, then turned off that trail and drove across the tundra until we got next to the river. It was completely remote (a major terrain feature away from the HWY) and out of sight of all the lower 48 tourists with their RV's.
