    Campground or Boondock?

    Both. It depends on what you plan to do in the area. If you’re visiting a national or state park, it’s often more convenient to be in the park and closer to trails/attractions. In both 2020 and 2021, hiking trails have been super crowded, making it imperative to arrive early, meaning at dawn...

    Hi Dave, We’ll have to coordinate a Maryland meet and greet in the future, as there seem to be a good number of us. I’m leaving in a few days for two weeks of camping and hiking in California and Oregon. I’ll touch base when I return, hopefully with good pics! Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    East Coast Tundra Route (pic heavy)

    Have a great trip! Here are a few things ideas: - In The Smokies, the elk come up to the meadow at Oconoluftee each evening. For a bit of a workout, hike up to Charlies Bunion for the fantastic view. Gregory Bald is also pretty cool and you’ll be happy to have a truck on Parson Branch Rd. -...

    Anybody from Maryland?

    Hey, another Marylander here! I’m not far from Annapolis and new to OB. I’m heading to the Shenandoah NP area the second weekend in June (8-10). Reserved a PATC cabin near Swift Run Gap for Fri/Sat nights. Note that it’s a primitive cabin. Not sure about the road in - it may be passable, may be...

    Blown Away - Death Valley (Part I)

    Great video! I spent a night in Death Valley in early May - no rig yet, just good old 2 foot drive, so my range was limited. But I did get to witness two chuckwallas brawling on a scree slope. Chuck Norris has nothing on these guys!
