Very tempting! Have a Dr. appt. but that could be changed. Been to Hatteras several times an always wanted to check out Lookout. Have to get the beach driving permit from NPS??
If it's just me, I don't mind taking chances if I have good maps and time to do some scouting in an unfamiliar area. If I have other people that I was planning with and for I would be inclined to have a spot reserved for that first night at least. Also, During mid-week not so many others around...
Probably headed up on Jackson River in April. Son wants to turkey hunt. I probably just fish. Found some sites looking on google maps. Been to many NF out around the Rockies and every forest is managed differently as far as access and rules for dispersed camping. I generally map an area and...
Eh, don't hunt so hard anymore. I like to bird hunt some and put occasional deer in the freezer. Just bought a 20 ga. single shot turkey gun with a green dot scope. That tungsten ammo supposed to be the thing. Gun is really lightweight so hoping that will help me keep up with my son. He likes...
Yeah, I don't worry too much about mpg as much as making it back home. Fully overland trip loaded at 70+ mph I get 13.5 mpg. Pulling a 4K lb. boat and trailer 8-9 mpg. Maybe 10 if running 50 mph on the level. I just unloaded everything to put it in the body shop for a little deer collision...
I here ya. Turnt 70 myself and still do pretty much whatever I want but sure not getting any easier. Anymore I usually just have someone else do the heavy lifting, etc. I have a '17 Taco. I've taken it to the Rockies twice and many other destinations. Very capable and dependable ride...
Don't know what's in that area. Probably anyone that advertises working on 4WD will have some working knowledge of other off-road gear. Over towards Conway or down towards Georgetown maybe. Plenty of country boys around that can rig most anything.
If you haven't been to the Outer Banks, NC, might want to put that on your list. Been in the Fall a couple of times when they open up most all the shore down towards Hatteras and over at Ocracoke to vehicles. (After all the shorebirds have done their thing) Anyway, the real draw ended up...
Non-lethally speaking, I have had several occasions that a really powerful spotlight was effective at deterring wildlife and one pesky deputy that came in on my camp in the middle of the night shining lights at my tent. I flipped on the spot an hollered in my best redneck drawl, "Don't start...
Keep hard shell waxed. The first one started delaminating the clear-coat and they sent me a whole new rtt. I have the rtt slightly above the roof-line of my Tacoma so I can walk under it when open. I have a Prinsu rack on the roof now. Wind was never a factor. The new versions have more...
