  • Today we take the overland Subaru Crosstrek and Forester on an overlanding journey into the rocky mountains where we find some, mud snow and ice to test the AWD and lifts before camping in rooftop tents with the valley below.
    How do the Subaru Subaru Crosstrek and Forester handle in the wilderness, are they the perfect car camping setup? Watch the adventure to find out!
    The Forester: Built over a few years the 2004 Subaru Forester XS was built to test the limits of what is capable in an early 2000's Subaru with bolt-ons. Created for overlanding adventures it takes on the hardest offroad trails while having everything for camping. The Forester features: custom interior, rooftop tent, ARB rack with custom mounts, high clearance bumper, winch, Hella lights, transmission cooler, sway bar delete, offroad coilovers, AT tires, Beadlock wheels, overland kitchen and engine and trans skid plates. And to many people's surprise often keeping up with full-size 4x4s.

    I feel dumb not realizing this area was so close by. Growing up on the south side of Calgary all I really know if Maclean creek haha. Outback Wilderness on the way, going to have to explore more soon.

      I get you! It's hard to find new spots without knowing someone that has explored the area for many years. Awesome, well of you ever want to join one of our trail runs message me on Instagram!

    What roof rack did you use for your tent?? I have a 2017 Forester and would like to do this setup as well

    • @Chase_Schrader
      @Chase_Schrader  6 місяців тому +1

      It is a custom setup! I mounted a ARB Touring rack with some fabricated brackets where the old roof rails were! The full install video is here: ua-cam.com/video/K5NS0H59xZc/v-deo.html
