    Looking for beginner overland trip in central / southern cali

    If you want to have a great weekend camping trip that will take you up some dirt paths that aren't too terrible, but not fully maintained gravel road per se, near enough to you...go up 243 toward Idyllwild and take black mountain trail up to boulder basin campground. You will love it. Bring...

    What Should Routing Icons Be?!

    I dont think leaving it a bike is as clear or useful, but that is a big caveat. Apple and google both have bike navigation, i have no issue with simply using that navigation for that type of travel, what im looking for is overlanding navigation right? So i need to know once the other navigation...

    Spare tire(s) placement

    I do like the idea of the front mount as the tire doubles as a push bumper and can save the radiator in a deer/animal strike. But I do kinda worry about air flow, but not sure that it actually matters that much perhaps? Anyone have any good articles on this? It would be interesting to do a tire...

    Spare tire(s) placement

    I’ve removed the seats, I’ll use the same bolt holes the seats used to rig a structural tie down.

    Spare tire(s) placement

    I run an old suburban, GM placed a spare inside back drivers side. I am running two spares and trying to think of best locations. Concerns: 1. Ease of access and replacement of flat to the location. 2. Weight distribution and ride handling. 3. Rather keep the vehicle "camouflaged" as not an...

    Can I get my money back?

    M Rose, please dont be offended. I get what youre saying, and though I am on disability retirement limited income I upgraded to expedition tier (since this seems to be the only tier that is useful to me). The point isn't necessarily that 60 a year is a high price, which it isn't (like at all)...

    Route and Trip Planning

    LOL FML I shouldn't have made the track from my house, as I use it I'll obviously get better at this. Hahah Apple Maps wants to guide me to my driveway for OB1 to take over. Funny how that works but informative.

    Route and Trip Planning

    Thank you, once explained it worked as you suggested. I think I was expecting the "plus" sign to allow getting the tracks like how computers tend to work but I now get it.

    Route and Trip Planning

    So I made a route to a campsite from my house in Gaia as I still have no understanding if thats even possible in OB1 yet, but I cant find a way to download or upload or whatever the file into OB1, seeing as Gaia crashes on my iPad I thought this would be a good opportunity to trial OB1 on a...

    Route and Trip Planning

    The main feature that no app seems to have (in any way I have found) is to be able to pick my location or start location, pick a destination (say a campsite or whatever) and have an editable route planned out with filters like "only unpaved paths" that would find the least paved path to my...

    Can I get my money back?

    Expecting members to pay the same amount as Gaia or onx off-road (which pays people to do this work) but then work for OB1 is a bit awkward. I love the idea of community but paying to play then on top of that putting in work is a little frustrating. Dont get me wrong, Im paying for the adventure...

    Is there some way to make the map more legible?

    I have played with all the filters and layers etc. I really really want to like and use this app for more than the forum. The problem seems to remain this map is illegible and difficult to use for me and my partner, of the four main apps we have tried out (I used to just use paper maps for basic...

    Gmrs Distress call protocol.

    yeah thats fine, and I think there are a lot of people who are new to all this that just having something like this would invariably be helpful. I can imagine you being calm and doing just this, I can also imagine people doing a lot of yelling and saying they dont know where they are and they...

    Gmrs Distress call protocol.

    I dont like the idea for a set channel only for distress calls, Id rather have a set channel for the community and then use that in distress, more likely to hit up a member...but even if you did just for the community then id always feel like I needed to keep it there in case someone was trying...

    Gmrs Distress call protocol.

    No lies or bad information detected here. lol. I have no experience with search and rescue in the manner you speak, but am familiar with various SOP for emergency situations and have to train (currently im out on disability and am in process of medical retirement) with police and first...

    The Zello Option
