I would be interested in finding out where you got your maps from. I want to do the trail from TN to out west when I return from Afghanistan next year.

we wanted to be able to go on adventures but we also daily drive our rig. fuel mileage and off-road capability was key. we looked at Tacoma's but I am very tall and had a taco in the past and decided to shy away from it for leg space reasons. Subaru piqued my interest but the outbacks are to...

What was your longest trip with a car full. I recently went on vacation and my wife (pregnant at the time) wanted to do a road trip. I was down and so was my 6 year old daughter. What was originally a trip from Tennessee to Louisiana to Mississippi quickly turned into a 10 day 9 state trip...

it really depends on the amount of activity you will be doing. don't let cold weather trick you into thinking you'll need less water than in the summer months. I have seen more people go dehydrated in the winter than anything. study show a woman will consume about 2.7 liters per day and a...

I agree with the posts above. I have run a Goal Zero for a while. I just have a small set up that can attach to my backpack while I'm hiking or I can set it out on the hood of the car. It can charge directly to an item or I run it to the back up battery pack. The solar panel also has...

I would personally not use a pre packaged kit. I would instead think about the types of injuries that may be sustained on the trip.. ie.. burns, cuts, bruises, breaks, and stomach problems. pick your treatment supplies off what you may encounter instead and get training on how to properly...

snugpac is by far the best sleep systems I have used personally.

I have lived out of my pack for the majority of the last 16 years in the army. the best sleep system I have found for weight and size is the snug pac. I currently use a stratosphere bivy and a elite 3 bag. the five is like a one man tent. I cut down tall grass to make bedding under the bivy...

Love the tent

The day after we bought out subaru we set out on a ten day nine state trip. It wasnt exactly an offroading trip but it was the maiden voyage. We went to the ozarks, the garden of the gods and the plains of texas.

After growing up in the mountians of north idaho and a long and still going career in the army i live to be outdoors. I am a natural prepper but not the kind that thinks aliens will end the world. I love to have whatever i need on hand anywhere i find myself.
