    Northwest Washington August 2018 Meet-up - 08/22/2018

    Thanks for organizing this but I can’t make it. A bit too far for me in Seattle on a week night.

    Dutch oven jambalaya recipe

    Made a version very close to this on a trip over the weekend. We sautéed the onion, garlic and veggies first. Then sausage. Used a can of chopped tomatoes w/juice instead of fresh. It all barely fit in a 10" oven. It turned out awesome! I highly recommend it.

    Show Me Your Overland Cocktail Bar

    Very cool. I've been trying to work out a good cocktail setup for camping. This is at the top of the list now.

    The 12oz "Shower" - how do you keep clean?

    We have a Turtleback trailer, so we can have a deluxe shower if we want. But, for a quick wipe down I'm a fan of the Shower Pouch. I find it makes me feel a lot cleaner than other wipes I've used.

    Camp stoves

    I use a Jetboil for hiking. Had been using Coleman 2-burner stoves for the last 35 years, but just got a new Partner Steel 18" stove. A little spendy but a great upgrade if you are already carrying propane. Super hot, and indestructible.

    What's your campfire in fire season or no campfire areas?

    +1 on the Outland Firebowl. We used it recently on our Mojave Road, Death Valley trip. Even though the group had a campfire, it was nice to have a quick heat source right next to our rig. A 5lb. tank lasted a couple of evenings.

    making toast

    Thanks for the tip on the Delta Toaster. I've never seen that. We use one of those pop-up wire contraptions on our camp stove and it pretty much sucks.

    Cast Iron or No? (weight right now is not an issue for me)

    I've been on the cast iron bandwagon for a long time. The only additional tip I'll throw out is to do the initial seasoning with Flax Seed oil. Take a few hours and bake on a couple of coats in the oven. The finish holds up way longer than vegetable oil or fat. I got this from Cooks Kitchen...

    Winter Camping

    We are a big fan of the propane fire bowls (Outland Firebowl). Creates a lot of heat quickly. Easier and faster than a campfire. Great to way to keep warm in the morning before the campfire gets going. Plus - they are the only campfire option during burn bans in the summer.

    Favorite Camping Tables?

    +1 on the Lifetime tables - as long as you have room to store them they are as durable as you can get.

    Tacoma/Seattle Monthly Meetups

    I live in Seattle, so I'm watching this thread. I'll be there if I can.

    Aerial rig/camp pics

    That's actually useful. Love to see a suspension demo from the outside. Nice!

    Aerial rig/camp pics

    Cool pics. Has anyone filmed their rig while it was underway?

    OB Approved Overland Safety: Fire Extinguishers

    I've been considering one for my 4Runner, but I just couldn't get my head around why I need one in a modern vehicle. Then last week, I was having coffee with someone at any outside table at a busy intersection. People start yelling that a car is on fire. Sure enough, you can see flames...
