About Millervantures

We're Darren & Tanya — born in BC, rooted in the Fraser Valley. We grew up in these mountains, on these gravel roads, beside these rivers. The backcountry isn't a destination for us. It's home.

In 2023 we bought a stock 2005 Chevy Astro cargo van and decided, against the grain of every Sprinter conversion on Instagram, to build it into our overland rig. 2WD. 4.3L V6. Boxy. Honest.

"We believe you don't need a $150K overlanding rig to explore BC. You need curiosity, a mechanically sound vehicle, and the willingness to learn."

This site is our living journal — the build, the trips, the mistakes, the wins. It's not sponsored. We're not influencers. We're just two BC people who built something and want to share it.
