What a trip! Amazing peace and tranquillity! The rain held off most days in the beginning and only 1 rainy night! It was absolutely perfect weather! The truck performed admirably and only a few things wiggled loose! After the GA Traverse, the SCAR was a letdown. But my adventure spirit pushed...

After 11 days in the woods, I am finally on my way home! It started at zero dark thirty and 20 foot elevation in SWFLA, thru the GA mountains via the W->E route of the GA traverse, to our highest point of 6500+- at Clingmans Dome, thru Toccoa which we drove the “Currahee” Mountain. Tomorrow we...

OnX track

Well said. We are on the return leg of a 11 day wandering of the North GA/NC/SC woods! It has been so peaceful having the woods to ourselves! There was an occasional motorcycle and day trip jeepers that didn’t bother us. Yet the camp sites were basically empty! I was in heaven with the solitude...

Bridge out @ 35.0541, -84.47968

BTW, Hickory Gap was nice (34.92632, -84.67681) Jacks River Field Camp ( 34.86313, -84.51964) There are so many opportunity sites to camp, you will have no issues finding one. 5 nights and we had all creekside and 2 lake side nights. Absolutely perfect.

I just got off the trail 2 days ago. If you go the northern route of Frog Loop, be prepared for a bridge outage. If you have a jeep, there is a bypass to the side or back track over the dam. <edit> I started west~>east too! The first climb in the rain was interesting!

1 week down, 1 to go! Gotta love the GA mountains!

T-9 hours before I start my first adventure in my recently completed build! It’s been a long 10 months and I have been chomping at the bit for sometime now! John Denver is singing my ! But instead of a jet plane it’s a Super Duty! In the last week, I had a few things happened that would have...

I just found your photo site! Im not supposed to be jealous but man.. nice views!!! In the Montana section I see a really nice hammock. What brand and model # are they! I had a nice one in the Army with a mosquito net but they were 2 separate items. Yours looks like one. Plus that Gazelle...

I like that diy fire pit burner! Might have to pick one up! Appreciate the link!

I want to get to your area in a year or two. Nephew lives in Boise. Glacier NP, Tetons, and the BadLands are calling me. My wife gave me only 2 requirements on picking a place to live. Within an hour of a major airport and no blizzards. She doesn’t like the cold and I grew up on Lake Erie. I...

Opinions are a plenty!! I like so many of these ideas but being a diy’er and a cheapo, I went with a propane fire pit that has a cast iron grill and a lid. Collapses to a small foot print of 8x19”. I will say that since I was a young lad, the camp fire was the center of attention. My kids...

I almost felt like I was reading my own story. But I’m on the east coast wanting the mountains of Tennessee but my wife likes Florida. My idea of a climate is spot on like yours and these weirdo wives are polar opposites!

Enter in the new BFG KO3’s. Let’s pray that they run true.

I just received a reply from OnX support that really bothers me. I guess my expectation management was out of whack! I plan on my laptop, view on either iPhone or iPad and what bothers me is that any administrative actions, turn on/off views, have to be done “per device.” So I plan a trip, turn...

The fact that you asked shows a lot! There is a section for build threads. I started mine about 10 months ago and just kept adding to it! It does take time and more effort than I expected trying to “pause” to take pictures while trying to accomplish a task. Best O’luck!

T-8 days and a wake up! I brought the fridge inside and started to pack my meals. Definitely overthinking food! But I do like the idea of pre-packaging nightly meal items in a Wally World bag! Makes it grab and go in a way! I am getting really excited like a little kid! It sounds stupid after...

The week before, the TPMS I have showed 106/104 degrees on the fronts and 109/111 on the rear so that might be a big reason…or dumb luck..

I did considered Toyo and Patagonia’s but in an agitated mood I went with what I know (BFG’s). I ran them on my 08 F350 so let’s hope they hold out for a while!
