    Tire snow chains, Driving Yosemite NP in winter

    Two would be ideal but the NPS will plow and sand the roads before you need two pairs of chains. In reality, you just have to show them that you have a pair of chains to get through the gates, but you won't need them. Depending on who is at the gate, they can (and have) turned 4x4's around when...

    Where are my Bay Area Overlanders At??

    Bummer, Hollister HIlls SVRA has a partial closure on November 8-10. It'll likely be too crowded to have much fun wheeling.

    Forrest road/easy trails near Sequoia NP

    There's a lot of forrest roads out in Sequoia NP. I'd recommend using Gaia GPS (premium) with their USFS MVUM and new USFS Roads and Trails map overlays to scout things out. I've never been out there but I'd love to learn about what you end up doing.

    40k buget looking to join the overland community

    First you need to decide what kind over overlanding you want to do - technical trails? Remote camping? Long term or extended living? Parking lot camping during meet ups and coffee? Then decide on what kind of vehicle fits your needs – full size pick up, midsize SUV, etc. Then decide how much...

    Tahoe/Rubicon Trail?

    The Rubicon is a serious trail and chances are your mostly stock Tahoe won't make it through the gatekeeper or if it does, off the trail. You'll want front and rear lockers, no trailer, openness for body damage in a full size rig, lots of spare parts and fluids and the know-how on replacing...

    Camp Stove

    Interesting. I found it to be slimmer and narrower than the Camp Chef that it replaced. I guess its all relative.

    Pismo / Oceano Dunes recommendations?

    Two real good points here: 1. The dunes drop off steeply going away from the ocean. Go slow away from the ocean and quicker coming back. 2. Flags are actually a requirement in the dunes. You can get a ticket if you don't have one. Spend the $10 on Amazon or near the entrance to keep everyone a...

    • Axe & Shovel Recommendations

    I really like my DMOS Stealth shovel. Long handle for my 6'7" height, good metal parts, serrated edge for scraping ice but not dangerous to users, compact storage.

    That's really nice!

    Garmin InReach SE+ at Costco

    I feel the same way! I really want the standalone GPS unit of the Explorer+ but don't really want to spend the money since I mostly use my iPhone when hiking away from the vehicle and iPad in-cab. I like the idea of redundancy and not having to rely on an ever-changing Apple product to see my...
