First I want to thank the members for providing an awesome collection of posts. I've done a fair amount of reading here.

We have lived on the Oregon coast for decades. We have always tent camped out of an SUV. Tents worked fine for 40+ years from USA coast to coast, Canada and Baja. We love backroads and primitive camping. I grew up in a camping family and spent 31 years with the USFS fire and law departments.

We retired in 2016 and bought a new LR4. We started camping more often and year round. We were roughing it more than we cared for. After a ton of soul searching we decided to get an off road type teardrop trailer.

We are loving it!

What's up everyone
I'm Chris and I drive a 2013 Avalanche
I'm very interested in doing some of the TAT and KAT. Daniel Boone loop and Georgia adventure trail are definitely on the list. I'm going to set out on 8/28/2021 in a South western direction. If anyone knows of any meet ups or wants to share some gpx files that would be awesome. Cheer stay safe

Welcome Chris! I'm only 2.5 hours away from the DBBB (Daniel Boone Loop) so when you end up down that way definitely reach out!

Here’s what I found online as a starting point.

Am looking into each one by one. It’s a list of 12 places.

Around Jenny Jump State Park, coordinates 41.128899 x -74.910797
Walpack Road and Haneys Mill Road. Head North!! Haneys Mill Road is the trail! Supposed to be all sorts in the area so will let you know if anything else I find.
