Unfortunately Kent, I have to cancel this time. Unforeseen circumstances.

I look forward to joining the team again!

Go out with experienced people in a group. I have learned so much by overlanding with people more experienced than me.

Just went on the four day three night trans-Sierra drive from Little Truckee Summit on highway 89 to Highway 49. Henness Pass Road is an old stage coach route from Virginia City to the California Gold fields. About 75 miles of a mix of dirt road and asphalt with some technical 4-wheeling. We...

Honestly, I waste zero energy on idiots like that. I typically cruise about 60 mph as I'm pulling a trailer, and smell the roses along the way. If I'm on a two lane road, I make liberal use of the turnouts to let faster vehicles around. My goal is to be a safe, responsible driver, regardless of...

It is still for sale. You can pick it up anytime.

A stock gladiator can make it with good spotting and dry conditions. However it is snowing in Monache Meadows right now and the Monache Jeep road will probable be impassible.

Very glad you are OK. That would have shaken me to my core also. Kudo's to you for not escalating or over-reacting coming from a sound sleep. That said, never sleep on the side of a Highway in plain sight of the roadway. There are too many crazies out there. I have camped in a sketchy spot...

I love the electric "tennis racket" zapper. Makes short work of anything annoying flying around camp....

Sliders not needed. Sway bar disconnect and lockers were a plus. I did the Monache Jeep Road in July in a stock Rubicon pulling and expedition trail. The most difficult section is 1.3 to 1.7 miles in. Steep, rutted, with holes. I didn’t touch once. Just need competent spotting, and take your...

I have been really happy with this unit. I keep my Li Ion battery plugged in all the time when parked between trips and it switches to "storage" mode once the battery is fully charged. All of my controllers are Victron (solar, DC to DC, and AC) and separate. I have been very happy with their...

"Overland Tax". I love it. I paid that for my Rubicon too.... There were a number of facets to my decision-making process. I looked long and hard at tricking out my jeep with a RTT, etc., but then realized that every time I wanted to go for a ride from camp, I would have to pack the tent. I...

That maybe true, and I get the price points. However, a Turtleback trailer is much more than just a trailer with a tent on the top. When I was shopping for trailers I actually flew out to Phoenix to go to their manufacturing facility and put my hands on the trailer at every step of production...

Installed a REDARC Tow Pro Elite brake controller. The installation bracket (not included) is essential for an install on a JLU. had to make a slight "modification" to the kick panel to get it to fit and ensure that the controller is in a position to avoid interfering with the vertical steering...

Thanks, It must have been a work thing. Read the article. I would be very hesitant to use an aerial flare in tinder dry California right now. I rely on my inReach to relay my precise position to those that need to know.

They came very close to qualifying for a "Darwin" Award. If most overlanders are like me, I have enough water, food, energy and booze to sit it out for an extended period, barring any medical emergency.

Thanks for sharing this. I was not able to access the article, but will try at home. I overland alot solo and am older. My legacy inReach is always on my person, and I drop pins to family often so that they know my precise location. Itineraries change all the time when traveling the dirt.
