Well my wife and I went away to the mountains in Alberta and BritishColumbia. We stayed at a Cabin inbetween Banff and Lake Louise. I was told about a road in B.C. that would be a great time. ( Settlers Road ) So obviously I had to find it. No major muddin' but some really fun off roading!! We drove for about 70kms or 40 miles into absoulty nothing!!! Anyway I just thought I'd share a few pics with you guys.

Sorry, but it took me a minute to figure it all out.

We had to picnic inside the truck due to the fact it was raining out. We had a great time and put a few rock chips on the truck. Well worth it though. I can't wait to get out and do that again!! We seen lots of deer, but no bears, only bear shit on the road! lol.

Banff is sweet but seeing how it's a National Park there is literally No where to take the Xterra, so you have to leave the park to find some Awesome trails.

Beautiful pics! Looks really nice there. Where did you get the mat for the back of your X? Is it non slip rubber?

I bought it right from Nissan. It's just called the rear cargo mat! I'll tell you it works great to keep everything from slidding around but I paid out my ass for it!!! $146 tax in.
