    There is a Vons that seems to have everything. It's on Main Street as well, just go left off of I15 on east Main Street exit. It's about 1/2 mile on the left. I work in the area a couple times a month so I'm pretty familiar with Barstow. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    Have you ever used your fuel in your Geri Cans?

    I use them all the time, but I am out a lot where gas stations are few and far between. Both work and play. I also don't like paying the price of gas that most stations charge in remote areas (if you can find one). Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    FYI, if anyone is planning to wait and get supplies at the Walmart in Barstow, they are very limited on whats in stock for camping (and other things).You are better off going to a different one. Maybe they stock for weekends, but the shelves were mighty bare early this morning. Sent from my...

    Just in case someone comes upon a desert tortoise on the trail this weekend here is some info from DMG.gov. Stop your car in a safe place along the roadside. Approach the tortoise from the end of the shell with the head. Note the direction the tortoise was heading. Carry it carefully across the...

    Shopping for a Rubicon

    I have 2010 Rubi 2dr, with BDS 3" lift, Shrockworks font and rear bumpers, with stock rims and tires. Yup stock, they take me wherever I want to go. I will probably get 33's next go around. I don't rock crawl unless absolutely have to. Not my thing. Large tires look good, and do help in some...

    Oh, I just remembered. If anyone is planning to go to Fort Piute, make sure to bring mosquito repellent. Last time I was there I was bitten 12 times on my arms alone. It was around the same time of year. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    Double check your wench. I walked by my Jeep and on a whim just reached down and tried and flip the lever to free spool, and it wouldn't budge. Pulled the wench off and took it apart. What a mess, caked grease, rust, and corrosion. The only semi deep water crossing I remember going through is...

    You can bypass Soda Lake by taking I15 and exiting at Basin Road. There is a private RR crossing so you can explore both sides of the tracks (Desert Megaphone etc...). This way you still go through Afton Canyon. Sent from my iPad using OB Talk
