    What about an Overland Bound singles section?

    I laughed pretty hard at this.

    OB Approved The Importance of Search and Rescue Insurance, Donations, and SAR Cards (US)

    This article applies to the United States, but the information may be useful to those outside of the U.S. as well. Being that search and rescue is typically a responsibility that falls to local law enforcement and varies state-to-state, it is difficult enough to scope this article for just the...

    Camp Photos!

    Love Alberta. Made a trip (no rig) up there in July and drove to Jasper National Park from Edmonton. Stayed at the Jasper Park Lodge, then drove down the Icefields Parkway, making a day of it; although my friend who’s Canadian and had done the trip before failed to tell me there is no service...

    OB Approved Personal Satellite Communicators

    Everyone participating in outdoor recreation of any kind in remote areas, especially those where cell reception is spotty or non-existent, contact with other people is infrequent, and the elements and/or terrain can lead to accidents, injury, or death should consider some type of personal...

    [OB1375] 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock - The Rube Goldberg Machine

    It was in stock locally and it was the ruggedized version, and I got 20% off. The only other clamshell softsided RTT that was in contention was CVT. But, couldn’t find it locally in time for the trip. Almost bought a James Baroud as I found one locally, but it was about $2500 more than the...

    RTT Annexes... How often do you use them? How do you set them up INSIDE?

    Interesting. My Tepui annex is pretty big and the weather cover is not much bigger than the tent folded up, so I don't think I would be able to keep it on permanently, even with a similar modification to the tent.

    Lemon Law? (any state, but I'm in Colorado)

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I haven't tossed around the Lemon Law term yet with the dealer, but as I understand it, Colorado defines 4 attempts as a "reasonable number of attempts" OR requires that the vehicle be in the shop for a total of 30 (non-consecutive) days within a year period...

    Is there a trail that you wouldn't run again?

    Whether because of terrain, lack of views, lack of interesting features, bad experiences, or whatever, is there a trail you wouldn't run again?

    Anyone using carbon steel for cooking at camp?

    Yep, carbon steel would definitely be better used over a camp stove with a more uniform burner than over (or in) a camp fire, but if using a more uniform heat source, I can see it having the advantages of being lighter and quicker to heat up and get cooking on, and quicker to cool down and pack...

    Anyone using carbon steel for cooking at camp?

    I know cast iron is popular for cooking at camp, but I’m interested to see if anyone is using carbon steel pans instead of cast iron? For those unfamiliar with carbon steel, it’s similar in concept to cast iron in that it must be seasoned and eventually develops a slick non-stick coating, it...

    Biggest Equipment Failure, or Breakage While on a Trip // Did you fix it, and how?

    WOW. I think the takeaway is don’t wheel with you and your friends, you’ll break something! [emoji13] (only kidding, of course) But seriously, thanks for sharing these experiences!

    Which mod do you regret the most?

    Oh this is a good one for most regrettable! Sorry you had to go through that, but maybe your experience will help someone avoid this mod on their build

    Which mod do you regret the most?

    Yeah, winches are definitely one of those things you kind of wonder why you spent money on, until you need it. Mine paid for itself already because it saved me from at least a $1500 tow / recovery fee in an OHV Park the first time I went wheeling.

    Which mod do you regret the most?

    We all have one. That one mod we wish we'd done a little more research or thinking about before we committed to... For me, it was my TeraFlex hinged tire carrier. GREAT PRODUCT, nothing against it or anyone that is running it currently, but it ultimately did not fit my needs. I had almost...

    Toughest Day on the Trail?

    What was your toughest day on the trail? Toughest doesn't have to mean something went wrong, or something broke, or bad weather... It could mean anything that put you to the test. For me, I think my toughest day on the trail was running "The Trifecta" in Moab (Poison Spider Mesa to Golden Spike...
