    Thank you! I’ve been working on my “creative eye” and sometimes it works.

    I really liked the contrast of these needles against the background.

    What is your go too overlanding photography kit/setup? What is in your Camera bag?

    I really, really, really wanted to like the A7III but I can't stand the way it feels in my hand. My fingers don't fit between the grip and the lens.

    Navigation to the trail

    That's what I was doing wrong. I followed your directions and it worked. I had to enable Apple Maps in the settings, instead of Google because I don't have GMaps. I was able to get directions to my test point. Thanks!

    Navigation to the trail

    I am talking about guided. Years ago, when I rode with a motorcycle group, I got the nickname 'U-Turn'. I'm not so good with directions. Anything I can do to help myself, I will. I am on the free version right now. I'm trying to decide if premium is worth it.

    I would be up for a Sunday run. Something on par with what we did last time. Welcome! Glad you made it over.

    Navigation to the trail

    Good evening - I have tried using GAIA to navigate to the trail. I'll be honest, it doesn't seem to work well for me... I could be the problem though... What is everyone using to navigate to the trail head? If GAIA, what am I doing wrong? (really, what are you doing right?). The videos I have...

    My Ranger Build

    I also finally got a phone mount that I like. It's the same arm from Bullet Point Solutions as the MXT, but with the 1" ball adapter and a Quadlock mount and case.

    My Ranger Build

    I installed my Built Right Industries bed side racks. They are solid. More mounts than I thought, which is good. I didn't have instructions, so it took an hour including looking up the instructions. The only issue I have is that I don't have mid tie downs and Built Right didn't supply any...

    HAM vs. GMRS - The Great Debate

    You're right. It would take work, but it's a good thing to have. I know that it is not perfect. The wife and I have talked about getting the Garmin InReach Mini or similar Spot device. That will happen too. I also believe in having as many choices as is reasonable.

    HAM vs. GMRS - The Great Debate

    This question kept me up at night. Both are better, but for different reasons. I went GMRS because the groups here use GMRS. I will eventually add a HAM for emergency call outs on solo trips (probability of longer reach). That being said, the best is the one that people are on. If you have...

    My Ranger Build

    I *finally* finished my MXT275 radio installation. I installed the Built Right Industries Dash Plate, backwards according to the instructions. I didn't like Built Right's mounting solutions though, as it was basically RAM mounts. Enter Bullet Point Mounting Solutions. I used their two hole...

    GMRS installation

    I did get the radio installed. I wired it directly to the battery and was able to test it out. It worked flawlessly. Thank you for the recommendations. I have pictures in my build thread, but I am going to take some better pictures (a bit more detailed) and post them here. The hardest part...

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    Bought some tires. More aggressive and one size up.

    Rig Names

    I named mine Hermes. Greek god of travel. Since I bought the truck to explore, it seemed fitting. I was going to go with Odin, because it's BA, but that's what Expedition Overland named one of their rigs.
