    Winter Overlanding Questions

    There is a YouTube channel on a guy who gets people unstuck. Up in Utah. There was a recent post towing out a Jeep wtrangler that a girl got stuck in in only about 10 inches of snow. Check it out. It is actually kinda informative in directly and entertaining when you see all these people stuck.

    Where to go. How to decide?

    How d you pick the area in the first place ? Something you heard about or maybe found on google earth ? There are so many choices out there. Sometimes I just go in a general direction and pick a dirt road.

    Best Budget/Used Nav System for Beginner

    But don’t you have to have cell service? I was using google maps on a camping trip in the redwoods. No cell service no maps no tracking. So you have to preload the maps. This to me is a problem because We started around Gualala and ended up in Oregon. That’s most of north California and some...

    All I really want is a 8 or 10 inch screen with the entire USA or at least zones. (Time zone areas) preloaded on decent 7.5 minute quads with the ability to zoom in. Maybe a couple of different map origins say usgs and forest service. The ability to track yourselves ona map. Save the...

    Which tablet or Laptop?

    Looking at the scale you have Gaia at 1:48000. That’s twice as big as a standard 7.5 minute usgs quad That’s really not very good even at a 1:24000 1” =2000’. Is just basic. I am a geologist and have the last 45 years looking at topo maps I can tell you that even a well drawn accurate topo...

    Gaia or....

    The thing is if you look at an app like bcn or topo usa they all have probably a dozen variations available from usgs topo maps to forest service the usgs maps cover everything so why not have the whole west ? The only reason not to is because the app can handle it or the...
