Good Morning,

This coming Thursday will be our normal scheduled meeting day at Steve’s Pizza at 7PM. Otter155 has stepped back, so if anyone would like to take over leadership of the group that would be great. There is a group in the room until 7 so we might have to start the meeting in the dining room. Please bring your ideas.

Hello I'm looking to meet people and go on some easy off road adventures. Just started building my F150 for overlanding.
I would like to join your meeting.

It was great meeting you last night and I would like to thank you for showing us your rig after the meeting. If you can please share your build with the rest of OB community.

I was watching the Tarmarack fire since it had closed the 395 for awhile, but it is again open.
Here is what I propose -
Leave 8/13 for Bridgeport, then take the Masonic Trail (in Peter Masey's "Backcountry Adventures Nor Cal" book) to Masonic and find a place to disperse camp.
8/14 - Take the FR 169 to Bodie; spend some time seeing the sights. Drive to the Mono Lake Visitor center to find a place to camp near Mono Lake.
8/15 - Depending on mood, some more sightseeing, then drive back to Sacramento.

You will need a radio (either CB, FRS, GMRS, or Amateur. I have all those in my Jeep but GMRS seems most popular).

I’m in. I’m not sure about navigating on this app. How do we communicate on the meeting time and place? Do I reserve a spot? Thanks for the info.
Feel free to call or text me.
