    Paper maps? still a thing or no?

    GPS is satellite dependent. There are some really cool places you can go where there isn't enough sky for GPS.

    We need to do something.

    Don't get me wrong. I am not claiming the general population is in line for sainthood. I worked Adopt-a-Trail for years. I have helped clean up entire truck loads of roofing that folks have dumped on our public trails. I have bought reacher/grabber tools for the express purpose of...

    Sometimes I think we've gone too far.

    Oh, on that front no question at all. The Bride just signed us up for a subscription service for dog chew toys. The initial sign-up gift is a Yeti dog bowl. Whiskey Tango... A stainless steel, double wall, vacuum insulated, non-skid base for a dog bowl? My dogs now have a fancier, more...

    We need to do something.

    In all honesty, that looks like a park management problem, not a general population problem. I doubt all that trash would have fit in those cans. The cans are pretty close to full as it is. It would appear that the general population attempted to dispose of their trash where it belonged and...

    If it breaks, rebuild it stronger. Call that a line in the sand if you like. Beyond that it is just get out and savor God's creation.

    Made by the same company that made Jack Sparrow's?

    Sometimes I think we've gone too far.

    If it works for you then you are good. Why worry about what someone else thinks? You have only gone too far if you can't afford it or the vehicle can't handle it.

    Paper maps? still a thing or no?

    I like paper maps. And as to their dates, the areas I want to be in are the areas that haven't changed.

    Passed my Tech exam, now I need a ham

    The Diamond NR770HB folds over for clearing garages and the like. It is also a radial-less design meaning it is not dependant on a ground plane. I have mine mounted on a rub rail (halfway up the body, between the bottom of the rear quarter window and the top of a back tire) on my XJ. No...

    Overlanding Grand Canyon and Moab

    For Moab, I think the most impressive drive for views and sheer pleasure is to take the Shafer Trail down to the White Rim trail and then to Lathrop Canyon. That drive will take you from the very top of Canyonlands all the way down to the bank of the Colorado River. The Shafer Trail is an easy...

    Definition of camping

    Upon the authority of Patrick F. McManus and his treatise on the subject of "Kid Camping from Aaaaiii to Zip" I do not believe camping requires that one goes any farther from home than their own back yard. OTOH, a tent and ghost stories may be required in order for it to count as camping...

    Definition of Overlanding

    We will need to determine what the meaning of "is" is.

    Table Assist

    For sealing the edges of plywood look for a thinned epoxy (viscosity of diesel) with a long cure time (cure time measured in hours, not minutes). This is the stuff I like: Rot Doctor CPES The challenge with plywood is that it has end grain on all four edges, and end grain is what soaks up...

    Keeping it simple (and reliable)

    How do you air back up without it? Or are you so hardcore you no longer touch pavement? (That will be the next step up for the elitists, just give it time.)

    Definition of Overlanding

    CCW in the northern hemisphere. CW in the southern. It is related to the coriolis effect, and if you are trying to stir it up you need to go in the opposite direction.

    Oh yes. I can certainly tell someone where to go.

    Overlanding and Outdoor Cartoons....out of my mind.

    That explains why I keep finding cactus spines in odd places in my Jeep!!
