    What's your favorite map source?

    It seems most of us are using applications on our smart devices now for navigating. So what is your go to map source and what do you like about it? Note: I'm not asking about the app you use, just the map source downloaded to the app. We have enough rescissions about apps already. Sent from my...

    New England Fall Camp Out (open to all)

    Let's all do some camping. There weren't a lot of responses to the poll posted in the original exploratory thread, but of the responses I saw, it was overwhelmingly in favor of a relaxed weekend camp situation with nothing specifically planned. A time for folks to explore any way they choose and...

    Hidden Falls (Central Texas) Wheelin Weekend

    I see several folks mentioning that it's time for a meet up, but not just grabbin' drinks. Hidden Falls was mentioned so BAM! Lets do this. I think sooner rather than later, why wait. Feb 18 or 25 (both Saturdays) appeal to me. Any objections to those dates or maybe you have some better dates...

    North East Monthly Meet and Greets

    Okay, as promised in the New England Camping trip thread, here is the thread to discuss getting a few monthly meet and greets going for North East folks. I say a few because the Northeast members are pretty spread out and the best chance of success is to set up 3 or 4 locally centralized meets...

    Anyone else here like to hunt? What and where do you hunt? I'm currently in TX so I hunt the hill country a lot. I'm a freezer filler, never cared much about trophies, just want to feed my family with the highest quality free range, grass fed, organic meat I can. Typically hunt dove, white...

    Relocating to the Northeast.

    Hey Everyone, My wife and I are both from New Hampshire, but we have been living down here in Austin for the last 7 years. We are thinking about relocating back up to the Northeast.

    So Sportsmobile is in Austin now?

    Was waiting for my Trooper to be fixed at a local shop and noticed a Sportsmobile sign across the street. After further inspection, and much drooling over what they had parked out front, I was able to conclude that they have opened a shop her in Austin. Pretty cool discovery for today. Sent...

    Talk is Cheap! OB "Off the Grid" Central! Maybe...

    We have kicked the idea of doing an "Off the Grid" style meet for the central/gulf coast states and gone off on a thousand tangents and daydreams about it. I'm taking charge, cause I don't see any serious plans in the works (point me to them if I missed them), and I may have been the person that...

    I propose the OB Wave

    I saw, and read, the thread about the Jeep wave and how a lot of Jeepers aren't doing it right. I'll spare you the details as the thread is in the general section here and doesn't need to be repeated. Anywho, it got me thinking. Why should the Jeepers have all the fun? Don't get me wrong, it's...

    I'm poor. How do I make my cooler work better?

    Ok, I like looking at all the fridges and Yeti coolers. But I know I will likely never own one. 1, because I'm poor, and 2, because I just can't justify spending more on my cooler than on my vehicle suspension... Anyway, I have a 30 dollar Colman I picked up on sale from Academy Sports and...
