OK!!!!!!!

Leaving Petaluma Tuesday morning. I will catch up at basecamp #1 or somewhere on the way. Will be monitoring Ham 146.460

Thanks for the heads up. We will go somewhere else like maybe the Lost Coast.

Dates are still a little off In the Rally Point Notes. I believe in leaving the 14th but perhaps arriving the 16th not the 18th? Kurt

BDS front sway bar quick disconnect on my Ram works wonders.

Did this trail last year. It was almost 2wd able. Camping on the beach is great. This winter rain may have had a significant impact though.

I believe a limited slip in the front is a bad idea for safety reasons. My Ram has Dynatrac manual hubs and ARB locking front. Both worth every Dollar. Dynatrac gives you real wheel bearings for those larger tires and the front locker makes a HUGE difference when crawling in these heavy trucks...

A very capable rig indeed! What's in the tank on your rack? Have you considered quick disconnects on the sway bar? I have a heavy sway bar too but it puts me on three wheels off road. Guess I may be a bit light weight. Here is one of mine. Also 1776. Great ground clearance too.

Leaving from Petaluma CA on Wednesday.

HILDA, because she is really good at getting us and our hang gliders up the HILL! Duh!

Two badges stuck on, ready to roll!

I keep them under my XP Camper cabover on top of the tool box.

Chicken Corner, Moab, Utah

I kept dragging my bumper on rocks and ledges until it was about to fall off. I needed a better departure angle so I built a better bumper. I cut off turn signal plates and rear drawer to make room for a much higher bumper. The new receiver has much more ground clearance as well. After all...

Kurt here from the Bay Area. Overanding since the 70's finally joining the group to meet up with others. We have an XP Camper on a Ram. Just got back from Utah's Elephant Hill trail. We like to camp out in the wild.
