I have been studying the State Forest map and going over it with google maps and topo maps.
My son and I (he is 6) just completed an introduction to orienteering. So he is anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Purple Lizard maps and to start using them.
We go offroad most every weekend. I...
Our next piece of equipment is a 1999 Dodge Ram 2500. It is equipped with an 8.0l V10 Magnum and 5 speed manual transmission. It is a Sport package truck, and this is the one we will be the one we modify a bit more.
It has been a great truck. It has taken us on so many adventures and has...
So, the equipment.
Will start with the 2015.
It is Tradesman 2500 in the Crew 8 foot bed. Has Vinyl seats and rubber floor. 6.4l Hemi and 4x4.
Right now I have stock size tires but plan to make the one mod of larger aggressive tires.
We plan to just use our tents on the ground at first...
We are planning an off pavement travel/dispersed camping trip to BESF this year. Nothing fancy with tents and stock trucks.
We will be using our 2015 RAM 2500, BUT may also trek out with our 03 or 99 Dodge 2500s.
We camp every weekend from start of fishing season in April til November in...
We are planning to go explore the BESF around May (sooner hopefully to check it out, but probably won't camp).
We have been through it on road many times but didn't realize that you could off pavement travel/dispersed camp there until we spent the weekend at Fowler's Hollow State Park and found...
Awesome setup. Love RCSB Dodge trucks. The truck tent looks perfect on it.
Anxious to see more of your plans. I am not too far away up in Pennsylvania so maybe we will cross paths.
These are my Stock 4x4s. Other than getting better tires, I do nothing to them except maintenance and using sound judgement on where I go. We try something risky every once in awhile, but as @GetOutand4WD shows above you have to be prepared to work.
Right now, we just hang out shuffling around...
Hi all.

We camp all over PA in our travel trailer and are planning on thoroughly exploring Bald Eagle State Forest.

Hey, great minds think alike. I had been lurking here awhile, and decided to join so I could communicate with the community.
Didn't get much interest in my threads at the truck forums about "overlanding" so I figured I would try this out.
Nice to see you here.

Good Evening.
Glad to have finally joined after lurking for quite sometime. Came across the site after camping at Fowler's Hollow State Park and learning about dispersed camping being allowed on State Forest land.
Did a search for Bald Eagle State Forest and showed up here and figured this...
