This sounds like fun. I am going to try to make it, at least for the day. I am coming from San Diego, so I'll meet at the staging area. What time do you expect to arrive there?

It will be a great trip with beautiful scenery. Some suggestions based on things I've done with my daughter in the area: Spend the day in Glenwood Springs CO - Raft the Colorado River, have dinner at the Glenwood Canyon Brewpub and spend evening at the Hot Springs Pool. In Moab - Do Baby Lions...

Sandstone Canyon/Fish Creek Wash in Anza Borrego. Very Scenic and easy to do. The wind caves are a cool little hike off the trail.

This is Ruby in the Alabama Hills.

Bishop is to the north of the Alabama Hills (about 50 miles). A couple of months ago, I camped at Alabama Hills and the spot I happened to find was just 1/4 mile to the east of Mobius Arch. Definitely worth going.

Sounds like a fun trip. Keep in mind that the Tioga Pass (road between Mono Lake and Yosemite) is closed for the winter. Look forward to seeing the photos.

I just picked up a 15 GC Overland today. Mine has the 'trail rated' package, which consists of nothing more than various skid plates. My first upgrade will be the tires. The ones on it are due anyway. I will be interested to see what you do to yours.

Considering you can communicate well in Mexico and are familiar with it there, you should absolutely take your trip. While anything is possible, it's not very probable that the entire border is going to be shutdown. There's a greater chance that your vehicle is going to break down or that you...

Here are a few photos from Canyonlands NP in Utah. -Looking down at the Shafer switchbacks. View of the Colorado River

Wow that's alot of driving. Between gas, depreciation, & maintenance it must be costing you at least $0.50 a mile, probably more with your truck. I would think by just doubling your mpg that would be enough to justify the cost of a used car, let alone the savings from depreciation and...

I am curious if the Thermacell products work.

I am looking for some places to camp/explore along the eastern side of the Sierras. Any ideas would be appreciated. I am looking for good locations between Alabama Hills and Bridgeport, where dispersed camping is allowed and I can possibly do some stream fishing.

I just got this little guy. About as simple as it gets, all you need are cone shaped filters. It's called a Helix Coffee Maker by Soto. I got it for backpacking in mind, but will also be great for making a single cup of coffee while camping.

Welcome! I have family in Apple Valley and Rosemount.

I would not rely on CB or Ham for an emergency, but an inexpensive handheld Ham (Baofeng) is still worth having. The Sat phone deal seems pretty good. I don't know much about them, but assumed it would cost considerably more. Also check out the Garmin or Delorme InReach, which allows you to...

Magnetic roll and some white gaffers tape might do the trick. I've been thinking of doing the same.

Here's Mine

Anza-Borrego Sandstone Canyon Anza-Borrego Fish Creek

Went camping in Anza-Borrego this weekend. Found this nice spot.

It's hard to go wrong with a mountain pie maker. Favorites are turkey and cheese, pizza, and apple pie.
