How long does it take for a camp site to be vetted? I dropped a pin a couple of weeks ago, but it hasn't shown up yet.

Yup. I've spent some quality time in both Florida and Georgia. Humidity is not my friend. Give me the desert any day.

That would be my guess. Mine stick just fine without anything special being done.

I have a 2011 Xterra Pro-4X, which has factory skid plates. It depends on what you're going to be doing with it, of course, but I've found myself in a couple of spots in which I was glad to have them. As for the rest of your list, it all looks good, but necessary vs. unnecessary is fairly...

WWII radar station at Tillamook Head in Oregon.

Greetings and welcome, neighbor!

The little cheapo Stansport stuff sack I got worked well. I'll get several uses out of it, and when it comes time to replace it, they're only $5. Also, I just got one of these. There's plenty of room to put the griddle in with the stove. I'm going to get a piece of foam to put between them...

Do you know when the schedule will be posted?

For the short term, for my trip this weekend, I just a got a cheap stuff sack to put it in. If it works, great. If not, I'm only out a couple of bucks.

Simple and effective. I may try this.

I picked a Lodge cast iron reversible griddle/grill last year. I'd like to have a bag of some sort to store it in while in the kitchen box, to keep it from being scratched and/or keep the oil of off other items. Some time ago, I saw someone making carry bags for cast iron stuff, but I didn't...

Interesting. Mine hasn't caused any glow in any of my images, but I'll definitely look into a different type of remote before going out with a group, just in case.

Cool idea (yes, pun intended...I'm horrible like that). :sunglasses:

Tons of good info in that post, but I zeroed in on this because the remote that came with my camera is IR. Why is IR bad for astrophotography?

I have a Plano box just for trash. I strap it up top to the roof rack.

Ditto on that. I'll be leaving here early Saturday morning. Should only take me about 3 hours to get there.

I have Vaseline cotton balls, matches, Bic lighter, and a magnesium/flint striker. I keep it all in a pouch in my go bag. When I'm going camping, the go bag comes out and that pouch is transferred to the camping kit.

In an environment where it rains constantly during the winter, how long can an RTT be stored after being put away wet before having to worry about mold or mildew? I know airing out as soon as possible is optimal, but after returning home from a trip, it might be weeks before the weather allows...

Definitely. Space saver, faster, and much better coffee. Won't be going back to the percolator.

It's not the main purpose for me, but it is a big part of most trips. I consider myself an amateur photographer, so I'm always experimenting to see what kind of shots I can get. This just gives me more opportunity to go out and find cool stuff to shoot.
