The forest service road behind the Stawamus Chief is normally closed (community watershed) but now that they're building a gondola above Shannon Falls, they leave the gate open for construction traffic. This is the access route for an alpine mountaineering objective Rachel and I are pursuing, so...

This paper describes some tech details in Spin Tires It's a game about soviet-era looking rigs driving through mud/water, crushing trees, etc... Pretty interesting! Check out the trailer below, thankfully the game was kick-started ! It got something like 25k more than 'asked for' - but...

Saw this truck in South Padre Island

Here's a link to the latest trailer for a game I've just wrapped up working on. I'm a special effects artist, so my contributions are the sparks, destruction, debris, fragment physics, animated chickens, etc. Check it out! Tu1YFqdNYEU

My wife and I did some alpine mountaineering this weekend. We backpacked 15k into the wilderness and summited a set of twin peaks called the Golden Ears, NorthEast of Vancouver B.C. Yesterday morning, this is where we woke up: The late-summer early-morning snow is hard and frozen, so an...

I caught a big ol Chinook yesterday!

2.5 hours. Incredible project, this is the largest robotic explorer ever sent to space. About the size of one of our XJs. http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/participate/ All you ever needed to know about Mars missions, past, present, and future! http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/press_kits/MSLLanding.pdf

My stock driver's seat frame broke at one of the mounting bolts. The result was an unsafe sway for the driver when turning corners or changing speeds. I took the opportunity to do the cheap and easy upgrade to ZJ seats after finding a decent set at the salvage yard that would match my interior...

The Jeep climbed HWY 20 to Washington Pass. My buddy and I climbed the Beckey Route to the summit of Liberty Bell. To see a hundred more photos with the route descriptions, click here.

I was inspired by this thread to improve the wiring for various powered accessories I've added to my Jeep over the years (fog lamps, etc). Switches activate relays in the engine compartment using Cat5 Ethernet cable to save space and keep the larger accessory wires out of the passenger...

I started working on a little project this weekend. I've had a stock XJ gas tank skid taking up space in my apartment, or taking up space in the back of the Jeep for almost 5 years.. Then, a year or so ago friend of mine from the NAXJA NWChapter (Thanks RedJeep2.0!) gave me a gift...

It just showed up at work - unloading now:

I just figured I'd share this concept art I made today!

In downtown Amsterdam, there are 50k dollar Jeep Grand Cherokee WK Taxis cruising around. (Click image for high res)

I hiked Mt. Cheam this weekend. The hiking trail started at the end of a decommissioned FSR. There's still some snow up there - lots of avalanche debris made for an exciting hike. It was awe inspiring to see slopes covered in broken trees from avalanches earlier in the season. The valleys below...

obUW6irQYJ4&feature=player_embedded Pretty nice looking garage. Anybody know much about that floor lift?

I was reading ehall's "beater!" thread, and it reminded me of a loose end I've been meaning to tie up. He picked up a 97+ axle for his pre-97 XJ - but can't use the parking brake because of the cable differences. I didn't want to clutter his thread with my inquiry, so here it is. I put an 87xj...

Awesome stuff, as usual!
