Planning on heading out in a week. the direction I'm going, I'll make a big counterclockwise circle and go through NM, OK, AR, TN, NC, VA, WV, OH, IN, IL, MN, SD, WY, ID, OR, UT, CO and back to NM. Any sights or great spots along the way would be much appreciated!

Unfortunately, I think Weston Pass is still closed.

Hi All, I'm heading off on the Transamerica Trail at the beginning of June. Going east to NC from NM and Then circle back west to OR, then back to NM. I'll generally be following Sam Correro's route ( www.transamtrail.com ) with diversions to see friends, family, etc. Hoping people have some...

I'm starting nearest to home near Raton, NM and going east to Nags Head, NC. Then I'll head north to La Crosse WI and then west to Port Orford, OR. Then back home thru NV, UT, and CO. It's gonna take a while!

Had a great time last year, but this year I'll be on the Trans America Trail then. Bummer.

Here's another, although we diverted off the CDR in Colorado : https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/continental-divide-and-colorado-bdr.40074/

Sometimes I do, but it seems kinda superfluous since FRS shares the same frequencies and they require no callsign.

The Oark General Store is on my list of must-do's for my Trans-Am Trail trip this spring!

Best bets along the route are the Jemez between Cuba and Abiquiu, the Chama below the dam at Abiquiu lake, the Rio de los Pinos just south of the CO border, and the Conejos River just north of the Colorado border.

I took a recovery class from Bill Burke just after I got the van. I learned some things but the best part was doing hands on recoveries in a controlled, low risk setting.

South Dakota is full-timer friendly for vehicle registrations, etc. Generally, where your vehicle is registered is considered your state of residence for income tax purposes. Many people use Texas or Florida because they have no individual state income tax.

I don't think you'd have any problems. Chloride canyon is a little twisty but I think a small offroad trailer would be fine. There is a hairpin at the exit that you might need to 3 point. There's a narrow section with banks on both sides dropping out of Cloudcroft that would be tight if you...

We took 6 days, including the drive from Las Cruces, NM to Dell City, TX. Our run through the Mescalero Apache Reservation around Ruidoso was quicker than usual because the reservation roads were all closed so we stayed on pavement. If I was doing it again I would probably add a day. We hit...

For some background on the NM BDR, here's my trip report from a couple years ago. I had a great time. https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/new-mexico-backcountry-discovery-route.32783/

I just replaced a rear DSSV on my 2019 ZR2 days before the warranty ran (on time). Only 15k on the truck with little serious offroading. The DSSVs ride great but seem to be not very durable. When the next one goes, I'll be looking for something more durable and less expensive too.

I'd really like to and compare notes on the CDT but I'll be in Montana next week. Darn!
