June would be great so I could have one for the NW Overland Rally, but if it doesn't happen by June, that's ok too.

This is a great idea. I'm onboard 100%. I need one to mark my territory while out in the woods. It would be much easier than lifting my leg to mark my spot. lol

Hey guys!
What kind of flag? A full-size flag? Square? Triangle?
The only gate to doing this is quality. That takes the most time.
What should this flag cost? Keep in mind, we don't do low-quality. I want to gauge what my manufacturing budget can be.

Member specific option? (Could have the top two items and center bottom for region)
Or perhaps erase everything, keep the logo and put "Base" center left and "Camp" center right, for events.
Erase everything but the logo for a normal flag.
Can make it either of the two sticker colors.
3 x 5 rectangular for event, smaller for personal.

My original idea was nothing too big, something that can be folded up and stored in a glove box or a pack so you always have it when you need to pull it out and don't notice it taking up room when you don't. Maybe 18"x9"? I'm good with something simple, just a dark gray with the yellow logo, or black with the white logo. It could either be two sided or have the Overland Bound logo on one side with a partner logo on the reverse like tread lightly or something along those lines. Price wise I would think $20 or less.

I like the Base Camp one, but a smaller one to hang on your dune flag or antenna would be nice also.

Hey guys, riffing off @Gnasher_PNW I prepared a couple flag ideas. This is meant to be big, 3X5. I think we should ALSO do a smaller triangular flag as well.
We may eventually have some custom number options and regions, but that is a custom flag for each members and comes with a whole bunch of $ and production issues.
For now, give me some feedback! One of these, a combination, or something completely different?

#1 As well.. Any idea on an expected timeline? It would be cool to have for our Redbird run June 24-26!
@Michael I love it!
I think #1 is definitely the one.
I was thinking about getting the individual member one made up on the side, to see how that goes... Hopefully not too expensive.
Still, I like it.

Should be before then. Limited run. I'll probably do 10 or 20 at first.

Offer a smaller version (6"x 10" perhaps) that could be flown from a CB antenna or aerial.
