We finished our week 3 video from Mojave, through Death Valley, and into Sedona, AZ!

Day 19 Woke up to this Snow in the desert seems so wrong, but it sure is beautiful! Hanging out in town today, nice to have some more down time to recover for the weekend ;) Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

It’s been super fun! Thanks for following along. Day 17 We got up and Lauren rode her bike down from camp while I drove the Jeep down to meet her. Then we cruised through the Vegas strip before heading towards Sedona. We were planning on doing a down day at a lake to chill before heading back...

Some more camp photos for ya. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

Yup, no problem! Thanks! Its not rocket surgery, just some practice and a lot of winging it! Thank you, it is extra special traveling around with something I made myself. Hopefully it holds up for many years haha

Thanks for the kind words! We’re working on it [emoji41] Thank you! It’s been very fun! Day 16 The wind was kind to us and we had a very peaceful night in saline valley. I got up and watched the sunrise from the hot spring before we packed everything up... then had a pretty long commute out...

Finally found some good wifi!

Day 15 Today we got started on our backcountry route. Hit all the good stuff, and stayed the night at Saline warm springs. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

Day 14 Packed it up and headed into Death Valley! Airing down for comfort (and to save the eggs!) Incredible mountains out here! The wind kicked up again pretty good, so we were less then eager to make camp, so we pretty drove late into the night. And found a campground that wasn’t so...

Sure is! Fancy is his name and he reminds me that we’re on island time... Day 13 Today we moved from the Joshua Tree area to the Mojave national preserve. Another beautiful desert! Before finding camp we went and checked out the lava tubes. Then we found a little wash to get down out of...

Day 12 Broke camp in the cold. Then I got dropped off at the top of the epic mtb trail! Then we did some chores in town. Resupplied and laundry. After that we headed to the other side of Joshua tree ntl prk. In the 29 palms area for some nice dispersed camping. Quesadilla night while the...

Slower is better, it lets you be more thorough and thoughtful on the small stuff. I wish I had more time to work through some of my little details that popped up on me and I just blasted through to meet my deadline. The most common complaints I’m finding myself wish I would have spent more...

Day 11 Today was mostly road driving, we left our little hideout in the desert and entered the bizarre world of the salton sea and Palm Springs area. While researching for this trip I often wondered why there wasn’t much going on around the salton sea. It didn’t take long after arriving to...

Thank you very much! Thanks! Using it has been very rewarding and it’s going pretty well! Thanks! Didn’t keep great track of hours but it took about a month straight of me working with more then a few days from my dad and fiancé. Don’t have the numbers in front of me, but it’s probably...

Day 10 Didn’t get much sleep as we were pummeled by wind all night, even hiding out in a canyon. As anybody whose done a windy night in an rtt knows, they’re just isn’t much rest. But we survived and hit a quick breakfast to get on our way through the state park. We had an awesome drive through...

Day 9 Not much to show from this day. We got up, did a quick sandbag workout and made breakfast burritos before taking off for the day. We drove the pavement to Yuma and made a pit stop in El Centro, CA to have lunch with some of Lauren’s family. Since we missed out on a two day off road...

Day 8 Today was gorgeous, a wonderful change from the gloom. The sun burnt off the clouds quick this morning and we wasted no time hitting the trails. Trails are awesome around Tucson! After a sufficient endorphin fix we headed back to camp and packed it all up. Ate some lunch and headed...

Thank you very much! Day 7 Forecast showed cloudy again, but little rain. So Lauren tried to ride... Didn’t go well... so it was much like the previous day. Lay low, hang out at starbucks, in the Jeep, at camp. Then right at sunset the clouds broke for a minute, then continued to rain lol...

Thanks, I appreciate that! :D Day 6 Laid low, got wet. Made a video about our first week, here it is!

I’ll do my best to keep it up to date, we will be out of service frequently though. That’s half the fun ;) Thanks for the support! Thank you! It’s been like living a dream, I’ll keep posting! It sure is! Challenging, but very rewarding... Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk
