    Regardless of your preferred method, when its time to hit the trail you should always have good old fashion maps to fall back on.

    Hotels

    We spent the last day of our Appalachian trip in Charleston, SC. The hotel only had valet parking but they parked our Jeep in a vacant lot behind the hotel, we happened to see it when we went to dinner a couple hours after getting there. When asked they said they didn't have room for the three...

    Tents

    We have had ours for well over ten years and still look brand new. Our poles are two piece, which means length isn't an issue but we have to pack six 2 1/2 inch diameter poles per tent.

    Motion-Tek JK 07-13, Adventure Series, Jeep Cargo Nets, Rear and Side Window Set, I got it from Northridge 4x4. It is a standard cargo net designed to follow the roll bar to the trailgate.

    For planning; Google- Forums/website trip reports/youtube videos- Maps For Execusion Maps All the maps I will need on the trip are stored in this canvas bag. The nav system that came with the Jeep (730) isn't all that good so its mostly just a back up, "you are now at __-__-__...

    Tents

    The canvas wall tent has been around for at least three hundred years so the design has been well thought out. We were debating getting one just before we stepped back from doing 18th century living history. We have two 7' convertibles and a 6' bell back (actually belongs to the daughter) that...

    Bf Goodrich AT/ K02's or Goodyear Duratracks

    I got Falken 35x12.50's on mine, they are almost $100 cheaper than the BFG's. A friend of mine is running BFG's, I walk right over obstacles he gets stuck on. Overland Journal did a tire test last year, the Falkens placed second with BFG's and Goodyears coming in near the bottom. I read a bunch...

    Appalachian Mountain Trip (South)

    While taking pictures of this waterfall . . . We missed getting a picture of the bear that jumped out in front of us. If you look really hard you can see his backside. (do I get points for the bear photo?) Took some hiking to get to these falls. Weird thing about this sign, on the other...

    Awkward Message from Overland Bound:

    mbwesner, would you be referring to Expedition Overland? I started watching those folks but quickly lost interest, too corporate. The OB videos are very good, much more "I am figuring it out as I go too". (I actually started watching them before I ran across OB, thought it was just some guy and...

    Comments and Discussion on the new Overland Bound Landing Page

    If you are taking requests, can you make an expended version of the Boyden Cavern video? You have a few geographically challenged people who would love to see more of that canyon.

    I was going to mention the MORV trailer but I don't think they can compete with a free tent.

    Awkward Message from Overland Bound:

    I am not a big forum person, I've posted more here in the few days I have been on here than all the forums I have been on before. The ones I have been on the people are not very open to new people engaging in the conversation, someone like me has no place in it because I haven't been around...
