    To Chainsaw or not to Chainsaw, that is the question

    It's called trail maintenance.

    Camping with kids

    Yep... once you get the kiddo in the wild he/she may spend hours just watching the ants crawl around. Don't overthink it and definitely don't be too worried. And remember.... boredom doesn't kill kids!! Builds character. They will "act" bored for maybe 5 minutes and then when you don't give...

    Preferred way to cook?

    Over an open fire with a swing-away grate. Adverse weather and we cook with a camp stove and have something different. If it's a primarily meat supper (steak, dogs, etc) it's on the fire... pasta, etc is on the camp stove. We are typically out for a number of days and have a varied menu.

    Are you prepared or are you rolling the dice? Be honest.

    We all do the best we can to be prepared ("we" as in people like us on Overlandbound and in this thread). At the end of the day though.... if it was 100% safe we wouldn't be doing it. "Nothing fun in life is safe"

    CB Antenna Advice

    1 thing I also did is shrink-wrap the end with some heavy duty shrink wrap for heavy cables like welding cables.... I used red to blend in with the red tip. Previously I lost the rubber protective end a few times due to trees, etc. and this has remedied this issue for me.

    Rivian Will Bring Electric to Off-Road

    The biggest issue I've seen with electric vehicles is heat. Electric cars/trucks use electricity to produce heat... and not very efficiently. As we all know producing heat with electricity takes a lot! This greatly reduces the range... but is rarely mentioned. And I can only imagine how it...

    I'm sitting currently in the Trans Canada Brewing company beside Luxe BBQ store..... They have some nice long tables here and the pizza looks great. This could be an option for the future as well.

    I got notified by @Mixednuts59 that a December 2nd evening would work for him. I have supper plans so I can attend later if it's still going. Anyone else interested in this? I won't be there in the beginning so I would need someone to ramrod this for me.

    Offroad Trailer vs Offroad Teardrop

    That Hiker Trailer has a few things that would absolutely NOT work here. The main thing that popped out at me immediately was the cabinet door from the inside to the outside. There is no screen on it. I can only imagine the amount of bugs that would end up in the sleeping area when the back is...
