** jumping in here ** I've had the great fortune in fall, 2017 to have crossed paths, via this platform - sadly not face to face, with Brien. My wife and I were planning a trip out to southern AZ pre Christmas on our way out to the LA area. Then a swing back into northern AZ in early January...

Hey Ich, Just let me know when the urge strikes ya. I typically only go on weekdays (I love retirement~!!) mostly due to traffic out of & back into the city. I'm sure you know what I mean... But I'm game if you wanna just go wheeling or if you want to do an overnighter. I'll be around the...

Padlocks coded to auto key!!???? Holy "Great idea"... Never heard of this, thanks for the insight.

Kenneth, so glad you had a good time. let me know next time you're headed up to N. GA... maybe we can meet up

Really liked the first link! That guy is a creative and detailed craftsman. I've got all those tools and have used all the skills in his video, all at different times and tasks. So what I obviously lack is his vision. I'm so impressed with what he pulled off with common hand tools and a...

Cdaug, your post is so relevant for me and my near-future plans. First, man, I hate to hear you got ripped off no matter where it was - but really!?? In a residential Austin, TX neighborhood! What a sh@tty thing to have to deal with. Short of backing up to a cliff, brick wall, large tree...

Hey, Ben C., to follow up on your "E" rated tire comment. I was out in S. AZ with my wife and as we came off the Mexican Border road (basically from Ft. Huachuca to Nogales, AZ last year. As I came off the washboard I aired up my BFG K02s to pavement levels BUT... due to fatigue and...

Update - just got back from our Mexico trip which was, sadly, via commercial airlines. We had a great time for 90% of our plans yet we had about 7 or 8 "stumbles" in our travels. However by keeping our sense of humor and desire for adventure, even the bad stuff was able to be accepted as...

Hey KR, sorry I couldn't reply sooner. Just got back from central Mexico, air travel not driving :(, You won't have any problems on Charlie's Creek road anytime of the year regardless of rain. Seems like a great day for a trip to the mountains this time of year - I'm envious! Enjoy!!! Let...

Like most responding, I prefer "dispersed camping" vs campgrounds. But having said that I rarely plan my travels based on a specific type or specific campsite location. I try to always have an "alternative option" plan just in case the area or specific site has "turn off" as soon as I arrive...

Looks like a great trail! Thanks for putting a fresh new item on my "to-do-list". Enjoyed your video so much. My wife and I pulled off a 5+ week trip out west to and from Georgia in early Dec. '17 thru mid Jan '18 with a focal point being DVNP. We loved DV and invested 5 days of the trip...

Wish I could join you folks to meet, camp, wheel, etc. However I'll be in the mountains of Central Mexico (Patzcuaro & Morelia, Michoacan, Mexico) for "dia de los Muertos" (Day of the Dead) during the last days of October until mid November. My wife and I are headed there to welcome the...

I've had one since Overland expo east 2017. Like previous post, got it for show price. I ratchet strap it in place, sometimes it can get a bit noisy (rattling while wheeling) but it works fine! I have an RTT so set it up on the same side as tent so as to avoid the accidental "walk into it"...

Sorry to cut that last post short, wife brought out beakfast so I just "posted" and started eating! What i intended to confirm is that your pic doesn't include the wok.

When reading your earlier post I envisioned a flat "griddle" sort of divider which fit into the work for "indirect" heat or some such arrangement. I may have just misunderstood

Thanks for the pic. So let me see if I've understood your original thought & post. The "grill pan" you reference is sitting on the portable stove in your pic? Looks like its about 20 (+ or -) in diameter... or in US about 8 inches. And you also have a frying or boiling "basket" in the...

Your description sounds very interesting. Can you attach a pic or two of the "grill pan" you describe? I too use the standard wok as my primary utensil for cooking but any potential improvement would be welcome.

Caisob, I think you might be surprised about the lack of crowds on GA Traverse. You might find a few small crowds of people in campsites or parked alongside the trout rivers/streams but there are so many miles of roads/trails as well as dispersed campsites which make up the Traverse that you...

I agree with Logan. Solo vehicle hasn't been a problem for me. That's actually my preferred mode of travel and camping; just me, wife, dog, owls, birds, butterflies, bugs and wildflowers. Since I'm a 'local' I frequently take a day or three during mid-week to run-camp but usually select only...

I've been using the GoTreads for more than a year. I fold and pack them on the floorboard behind my driver seat (side by side) which provides a "platform" to keep my wax coated tool bag and air compressor on a firm-flat surface. My use experince has been very pleasant. They do exactly what is...
