    READ ME !

    I dont have any specific to overlanding books, but i bike, climb, and hike a fair bit and try to keep a library of guide books and whatnot as references when looking for places to go. here's one of my shelves. The Backcountry roads and California trails are great resources. Great topic!

    Kayaks - Inflatable, Rigid, Folding. . . whaddya have and how do ya like it?

    I just picked up an Advanced Elements Island Voyage 2 inflatable tandem. i was looking for a 14 foot fishing boat and trailer but realized after seeing a few i have no room for that, so i started looking at kayaks. i have a roof tent on my forester and dont like the idea of strapping yet another...

    Mounting an awning with no roof rack?

    Check out the Smittybilt trail shade. Attaches to lots of different places. Super versatile. Not mounted full time. I wanted a shade for the side of my tent and was able to use this. It's pretty cheap too.

    WHY did you choose YOUR rig?!

    I chose the Subaru Forester due to the reputation and safety features. The eyesight sold me.

    Took a trip to the Olympic peninsula in Washington and Crescent City ca. Also feeling inspired to go fishing more. Made a rod carrier for the rack. Carrier was under $30 and took all of 15 minutes to buy, make, and install. I've seen others that make the tube big enough to fit rod and reel, but...

    yeah the bluetooth may sell me on this and the ability to take non light items is a huge plus. at this point the price is the limiting factor but in the long run i will probably get this system and find the easiest to install lights in the meantime. i have a cb and ham wired in the cab already...

    OB Approved Overland Safety: Fire Extinguishers

    I have the element. Have not used it yet. Mounted to the passenger seat bolts in the Forester with the bracketeer mount. Fits very well and works with so many different extinguishers.
