Overland Trip Planning: Know Before You Go

Hey Michael an corrie
I can't download the lforms I'm logged in but won't let me download keeps saying to log in
 
These forms are a great idea. You should consider trying to partner with company Field Notes or Rite-in-the-Rain to produce a nicely bound version people could buy. It would make an awesome gift for some fellow overlanders. Just a thought, but you should do it!

Let me add something usually not mentioned I. Many posts regarding what to take, a spare set of keys for the rig, vehicle and trailer if so equipped, for some reason they do get lost, dropped in the water, lake, or lost in a campsite. Been here done this. DUH!

Great article! I tend towards Michaels side of things.... jump in the rig and yell "Roadtrip!' is my normal pre trip planning faze..... :O
Checklist will make the likelyhood of returning from said trip much higher :)
 
I've been camping since I was a kid... When in high school or college, my dad would call me and ask--'what are ya doing for the weekend? Nothing? Great, pick you up at 5'--and we'd find some place to park/camp. There's something great about the impromptu weekend trip--traveling light, enjoying what's around you. With that said however, going overland requires a lot more prep--thanks so much for the checklist!
 
great check list. reminds me of my pre mission checks I conduct for my soldiers. my old first sergeant used to say " don't expect what you don't inspect".
 
Thanks for the article. Already printed out several sets of the lists as these will be handy. Hopefully heading to the UP of Michigan this spring. I will post how well the lists work and some pics of the trip.
