    In search of: The Best Ground Tents

    So I bought this ozark trail tent from Walmart for $80 and fully expected to Be disappointed and return it. Set it up in the yard and thought, good shape and function, takes a while to set up (30 min) but first impressions were good. I’ve had it for a couple of years now and use it with the...

    Brown Mountain OHV near Boone,NC

    There’s the one long trail for trucks. About a 12 mile loop. It’s a good run, not difficult. Will be fun in the snow. Camping at the bottom by the stream.

    Uwharrie or Richland rd to Brown Mtn OHV.

    We did Richland a couple of weekends ago, after overland east. Biggest challenge was that first ledge coming out of the creek. Took me three tries to get up. Fun. Rest of the trail was a good time. Brown is a good ride also. Sites by the stream a nice.

    Get there early, they’re bound to be a target for more than a few folks. We reserved a campground spot because we’re rolling in late and figured they’d all be taken. Good luck.

    EGOE Nest Owners?

    There was a company called SwissRoomBox who made similar. They’ve shut down, but it would appear these guys have picked up the baton. I think most of their videos are still available. Great for space challenged vehicles. Good luck.

    Dometic goes to Overland Expo East!

    Almost pulled the trigger at last year's expo. Will definitely stop by for an ice cream sandwich, and in the mean time will try to convince the Mrs. on the virtues of owning one of your fine products.

    Camping waste disposal?

    Agreed, the problem is always education. Folks who take the initiative to learn normally aren't the issue. How to educate those who spend time outdoors but don't take responsibility for their actions.
