    How do you guys keep track of dirt vs pavement miles on trips?

    Is there an easier way then resetting the odometer or starting new tacks on a GPS? Or do you not really care to track that?

    Looking for a RAM mount that fits the 2nd Gen inReach SE device.

    At one point RAM made a mount for the 2nd Gen inReach SE (not the SE+) but they appear to have discontinued them. So I'm looking for a leftover some place or more likely, an alternative that would still work. I don't mind modifying the mount some if needed. Anyone have any ideas?

    Building "Etoimos", a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon

    The below build thread has been composed and posted on a Jeep site over the last several years. Some of the wording and timing might be a little off, but I wanted to share the build here as well since I'm now gravitating to the Overland style of things.... When you live at the foot of the Rocky...

    Just starting to think out loud about doing a multiday to week long trip around the middle of June. I've spent many of weeks in the Ouray area and am always keen to go back, but I've never explored the north west part of the state and that could be really interesting as well. Anyone interested...

    Cook set or Camp Table?

    Of course I'll end up packing something for both of these, but which one do you find more essential for backcountry overland style camping? I have a $100 gift card from work to REI and would like to invest this into either the cook set or table. So which would you pick and why? Feel free to...

    Overland Alzheimer's: Death Valley

    This past summer my father broke the news that two years ago he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. To this point the disease has not progressed very far and his only symptoms is perhaps a little more memory loss than he should have at his age. But knowing how quickly the disease could start...
