Welcome to Overland Bound! The Abenteuer U. Allrad Messe is happening in Bad Kissingen October 21-24. A lot of OB members will be there. Perhaps a visit fits in your plans? Hope to met you at an event soon. Best regards, Rick

Welcome from Germany Alex. I’m thinking of leaving my tent (hard shell) on this year. I need room in the garage for wood. We’re hoping for a better 2022 for traveling too. Rick

I used a Garmin Oregon 450 for many years for off road and hiking. I ditched it a few years ago and now use Maps.me and google maps. If I need to plan longer routes, I’ll import free OSM maps into Garmin’s basecamp, plot the routes, export the route in KML and import into Maps.me. It’s all free.

Crocs for driving (when making distance) and camp. Oboz for hiking, flip flops for shower and camp.

Sounds like a great trip. Unfortunately no time off “zwischen den Jahren”. Have a great time!

Hi Gang, definitely bringing some firewood with us. We’re leaving the Frankfurt area on Wednesday around 12:30. Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Nice!

Good to hear! Yep, they’re pretty handy. I’ve used one under my bottle jack for a bit more lift too. And as a wind break for a small fire. Depending on the tour I may carry recovery boards too. I carry them inside, in a Camp Cover bag, standing on their side, door to door where the rear seat...

I carry a pair of GoTreads for leveling.

Hi Björn, so what you’re saying is that some states have a suspension (or similar) in place. For those states that don’t, and until they do, it is illegal to use a microphone while driving in that state. Thanks, Rick.

Hi Björn , allegedly is the important word. Because the suspension expired in June, right now it is forbidden to use a “microphone” while driving. Is that correct? I understand the law may change next year, (perhaps another suspension of the implementation), but that hasn’t happened yet. Is...

Welcome!

I agree with the above above. Unless you plan on crawling or serious wheeling, you don’t really need a lift. Just pick the lines or trails that work for you and your ride.
