Off-road can be fun but it is also dangerous.
I had one in-law paralyzed for life from a 4 wheeler crash.
Wife got a concussion in another crash.
Ex boss drove a 4 wheeler off a cliff.
I road 4 wheelers for 10 years over rough mountain terrain. Only one I know who didn’t flip one.

We’ve been getting into overlanding over the last year or two. It can become a lifestyle.

We watch several YouTubers. Even passed a YouTuber on the freeway in Kansas two weeks ago on our way to an adventure.

I didn’t know of this couple but they sound like they were well known.

We’re on the fringes of the overlanding community. We drive a F-150 not a super tricked out Jeep Gladiator or Toyota Tacoma.

Guessing they rolled off a shelf road or a cliff.

In hindsight, maybe they should not have brought their cat Toonces on that trip.

They were doing what they loved. I hate it for them but before people jump in and say they were reckless and did it to themselves.

Maybe so, but I lost a co-worker two weeks ago who was just driving to the store. Sometimes your time is up, no matter what you do.

Good thing they weren’t walking through a forest. Canada can fine you $28,000 for walking through a forest now.
