A new to me Garmin 700i.

I've done camping and off-roading but this will be the first overlanding. I'm hoping someone with experience will join the trip, because this is one thing I don't want to learn the hard way. A beautiful trip indeed.

The swingouts are complete. Now on to phase 2.

I'll be checking into Starlink soon. Thanks for sharing.

The tent seems to be in working order. Now onto the other 100 things to do.

I plan on doing The Dirt Devil as a practice run for my trip on the CDT as soon as I get some things done on the 4runner. Please post up what the trail is like.

I have wanted an 80 series for years but could never find the right one. Now I'm too deep into my 4runner to change course.

My wife wants to be able to talk to our daughter while on the CDT. Does anyone have any experience with renting a satellite telephone?
