  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance this week and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    They need to hear your story...

    Waiting for the 2019 phone app rollout. It will be interesting how much this might grow the community.

    Single unified communication system for Overland Bound members

    While i have all the bases covered, i do not have my ticket yet. For those that don't, you could just monitor any group instructions, and use your CB for personal or vehicle to vehicle communication, with a agreed upon channel.

    Overland member chapters

    Nice idea. Just have a way to oversight the chapter, so that the leadership of it can't become a HOA nightmare.

    Expedition Overland interviews AEV on the new Bison ZR2 Colorado

    This truck is awesome. It has every basic component. It has the ability out of the gate, for even the most discriminating off-roader. As they said, tire size upgrade seems to be the only area for up-sizing, and that for only the hard core driver. Found it interesting about how long the...

    Expedition Overland interviews AEV on the new Bison ZR2 Colorado

    My 2003 HD just has a minimum of protection offerings. That plastic deflector underneath is gone if it ever tangles with a rock. Newer 2012+ Silverado's offer a few more options, even a snorkel from 1 company. But Chevy overall seems to be the stepchild of offered options. I found 1 company...

    Thank You. I'm still learning to navigate the forum. Oregon has such a diverse landscape. I really liked 3 sisters when i passed thru. Stayed at the hotel that looks like it was built with logs. Very quaint and rustic.

    Seasoning a dutch oven or other cast iron pot or pan

    I have seen flax-seed oil available in small bottles(plastic) at the $dollar store. These are just the right travel size for your chuck box. Also veg/olive if you prefer other oils. I plan to try the flax-seed oil on my cast iron pans, especially my griddle, as that needs the most hope and care.

    Condiments.. How and what do you pack?

    Another vote for smaller travel sizes, as i rarely have used 1 up before the trip ends. Between condiment packs and smaller squeeze bottles, i have had it covered. Bring a hot sauce bottle and all bases are covered.

    Build a backyard fire pit for that year round camping experience

    These are some really good ideas. I like the idea of a smaller 20-24 inch size pit, which allows a more controlled heat, and allows people to snuggle closer to the source, without cooking themselves. Put a grate across it, and you have room for 2 pans. Was going to put it in a alcove area in...

    What size fridge?

    While a 50 qt. seems to be adequate, i keep looking at 65 qt. size fridges, just to have the option for a week plus in the back-country. Make it a 'dual-zone' and i think your covered for 2-4 people for that amount of time. The outer dimension footprint is not that much greater. I like ice...

    Cast Iron or No? (weight right now is not an issue for me)

    I have a refurbished griddle that i resurrected from the dead(rust), a 15 year old dutch oven, that is finally becoming seasoned, and my big score from my mom, a 8 inch fry pan that is at least from the 1920's (90 years old) that she received from her grandmother...

    Who cooks with a Wok?

    I have never used a wok outside, but have thought about it. In the kitchen i now use a nice non stick model with a rubber handle. This replaced a mild steel/wood handle cheapie that i used extensively for years. This aluminum non stick model is so much better. As others have mentioned, it is a...
