    OB Spare Fluids Container

    When I transport my chainsaw I just use a low profile cardboard box with a heavy mil trash bag rolled Dow, if there's a spill the content is contained to the bag and if the bag is compromised the cardboard will absorb some of it. You could even line the bottom of the bag with old t shirts / shop...

I have been very fortunate to be encouraged and mentored by my new friend Kent R from Sierra Overlanders. My question to you guys is, can you all expand on some ideas for the vision...

    Too many options

    I'm really glad you shared that. In this day and age of social media and being a Facebook celebrity, it's easy to neglect the folks we are trying to build memories with. I want the best for our group and I see how vehicle based adventure can be a juggling act. Our adventures need to be about...

    Too many options

    What's up guys! What we learned on our last adventure was "less is more". We brought our GoPros, Cannon Camera and everyone's cell phones. With a total of 6 in our group, we found that it was difficult to manage all that equipment with so many moving parts in overlanding. I would suggest...

    Legal Weapons and Overlanding

    Always travel with a pistol. I prefer to take air guns for target shooting with the kids. My thought is risk vs. benefit.

    Bushcraft

    Very cool! My daughter and I took an entry level bushcraft class last year. It was life changing! I'd be down for more opportunities to do that. I prefer to be in the backcountry than at campsites. FYI, I am also a leathersmith and can help if you guys ever have a need. Not trying to grow my...

    Gobi Shipping Times

They are very professional and are doing their best to help customers. By their advise I called my bank to dispute...

    I would be interested to have an area in your profile that can display a members area of expertise that they are willing to contribute to the greater good. For instance, if a member is gifted with chainsaw skills, fabrication, motors, electrical, comms, navigation, medical, recovery / rescue. I...

    Husband and Wife memberships

    We use a single account between my wife and I. Looking back, I wish I would have ordered additional badges. We just bought two and each vehicle rocks one. I'd like to have them on each side of the rigs so ther members can identify us when we are in motion.
