Trans Labrador Highway
May 31st to June 5th, 2025 The last six days have been spent crossing Labrador — and what an experience it was. We left the farmlands of Ontario and Quebec behind and traded them for vast and untamed wilderness. The…
Category Molly Roadtrips
These are some of the longer and more adventurous journeys that we have made in Molly. We also take Molly on shorter trips, and these are categorized in a different section of our blog.
Quebec – Changing Plans
May 23rd to May 31st, 2025 We continued east toward New Brunswick, bouncing along the rough roads of Quebec. Our original plan was to return to Montreal — a city we hadn’t visited in nearly 30 years — and also…
Ontario

Dawson City, It Hasn’t Changed
It is so nice to be back in Dawson City. We liked this place 20 years ago and we still like it now. Back then we called it a living museum of the gold rush days, and it hasn’t change…
Rushing to Dawson City, Yukon

Marble Canyon and White Pocket

Muley Point and John’s Canyon
We returned to Muley Point for our rendezvous with Tim. He would be joining us for the next 2 weeks and including Overland Expo West. The original plan was to spend time on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon,…
Natural Bridges National Monument
This National Monument is a little gem. River water undercuts the rock forming a natural bridge. Stephen went for a hike along the river bed and visited Kachina, Owachomo, and Sipapu (the largest), which are all Hopi names. Caroline visited…
Back to Colorado
It was time to head back to see Alison and Gary and get our damaged windscreen repaired. We also continued to debug the 12 volt power supply for the Starlink, and almost established that it was an issue with the…
Hovenweep National Monument
We almost just happened upon this National Monument, as we hadn’t really looked up places to visit in the area other than Valley of the Gods and Monument Valley. We were heading back to Montrose, CO, via Ridgway, to repair…
