Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
Some places I've done recently,
Brown Mountain, you can run trail 1 and 8 (I believe) in a truck/Jeep. There are a few spots to camp on the entrance road to the parking area plus areas close by. We stayed at one of the spots on the entrance road.
1610 Brown Mountain Beach Road, Morganton, NC...
Installed a weBoost 4G-X OTR in the truck (yesterday). used a collection of Ram mounts pieces parts to make a collapsible/swivel mount. Boosted my signal in the driveway from 2 bars to 4 bars, time will tell how it works in the middle of nowhere.
The better part of 2 days if I'm not running the Dometic CFX too low and if it's not a million degrees outside...the lithium iron phosphate battery is lighter, charges fairly quickly and apparently lasts longer...time will tell
Just the Dometic PLB, I went with a portable option so it wouldn't be tied to the vehicle. The PLB runs the fridge for almost 2 days depending on conditions and I can charge it with the vehicle 12 volt system or the solar panel as needed. Being portable I can use it in other vehicles, tailgating...
Picked up an Overland Solar Bugout 120 to keep the Dometic PLB40 topped off when the truck isn't running. This thing is compact, lightweight and durable...
Is there a new thread started for this John?
If not some areas that may interest some people:
Old Highway 105, Linville Gorge
Looking Glass Falls
Dupont State Forest (Waterfalls)
