I never thought of overlanding as preparation for a natural disaster, like what we are experiencing here in western NC.
Yancey County has been hit pretty hard with a 29 inch rain fall in 30 hrs.
We will be without power until "hopefully " mid October.
Having the gear that many think is excessive and the offroad travel experience (thank you DBBB) has allowed me to maintain a level of normalcy and a rig that has helped many these last few days.
So next time someone poo-poos your Jackery and redarc systems, StarLink and outfitted rig just smile and know you're a bit more prepared when things go south.
