4wheelin quadriplegic

Hello everyone. I'm a new member here, and thought I'd share a little about me. I'm a 44 year old guy living in southern Oregon. I've been disabled as a quad since 1990. I enjoy the outdoors, and exploring the back country of Oregon, and Northern California. I also enjoy playing on the sand dunes, as well as the lakes. I have a 4 wheel drive van that is modified for me to drive, and is set up well for getting me where I want to go. I also have a sand rail that a friend and I spent three years building. It is completely custom, very fast, very fun, and totally wheelchair accessible. On the water I have a flat bottom v-drive (speed boat) that is a wet, wild ride! I've always enjoyed the outdoors, and becoming disabled didn' stop me. I just had to figure out different ways of doing some things.

Great to see you here...
I would be really cool if you posted some pics of your chair lift, powerseat and anything else you are using to run your rig...
Also how you setup camp?
How you setup a sleep area?
This is all info that others who are new and come here can use to help get themselves outdoors.

Of course trip reports are always welcome after any of your outtings :)
