Is that Big Sur spot in a place like this map pic?

So, I would like to ink the weekend of March 23rd. That gives people a month to plan. Maybe a 2-3 day adventure. I'd like to keep it within a 300 mile or less drive from the south bay area. I prefer remote camp sites free of other regular people (dispersed sites, fire road off shoots, etc.). My...

@RedBeard it's sort of a pain to get to good remote mountain spots right now, due to most being completely closed off for the winter season. Choices are limited right now. I've driven down to a dispersed campsite called Alder Creek a couple times recently. Had a blast there. 40 min NW of Lake...

I used the Firestik 3-way CB antenna mirror mount. It's steel and won't bend. The clamp is meant to be mounted on tubing, so it will bolt to your roof rack perfectly. https://goo.gl/images/3agBP9

The two sides can be inflated or deflated as needed. Leave the two sides deflated to clear wheel wells.

I have this for my JKU when not using my RTT. Perfect setup. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B075ZYT2N5?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd

Generally speaking, no. Quality determines my product purchase, not country of origin. If reliability isn't a requirement, value determines my purchase (not quality). If I can help it, I'll avoid Chinese products. That's difficult to do these days, since most companies have their products made...

I looked at that axe on Amazon, but opted to pay more for better quality. I saw quite a few broken head pics in the Amazon reviews, which turned me away from the Husqvarna. The Stihl axe (Ox head made if I recall) seem like a great budget axe. Never heard of those failing.

Tepui in Santa Cruz usually has tents you can check out, since they sell demo/second units on site.

After three days of use around the campsite, I determined this axe is outstanding at just about everything. It felled dead standing trees, bucked fallen logs, made feather sticks, shaved bird's nest material, split kindling, and chopped notches and wedges. Overall, best axe I've ever used.

Heading back again this weekend 2/9-2/11 if anybody wants to join. Leaving south bay on 2/9 around 10-11am.

I've seen people simply cross the straps like an X pattern to solve the sagging issue on the older bags.

First impressions: Recently purchased a new Hults Bruk axe. The Hults Bruk forge in Sweden is the oldest axe maker in the world, with operations dating back to 1697. I chose the 26" Kisa model. The axe handle is America hickory with a tight grain pattern and vertical orientation. Raw wood coated...

Under the Trail Rated badge and under the antenna.

No worries.

Just washed her right before the photo shoot. Had dried mud/snow slush stains all over from my last trip. Rig was looking good. You can't even see the pinstripes.

RTIC coolers are on sale this SuperBowl weekend. The 65 size is $179.99 shipped! It slightly outperforms the Yeti Tundra 65 in ice tests, yet the Yeti is $399. Grab yourself a quality cooler at a discounted price this weekend. I just bought the RTIC 65 with the divider and basket. This is the...

Sold my '16 Z06 to buy/build my Jeep. Huge sacrifice, but worth it so far. Jeep takes me to any remote wilderness, which is the point. Vette was very quick and flashy. So fun to hammer on. Oh well, she's gone but not forgotten. I'll probably get another Z06 in a few years.
