Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
There’s Sweet Union Brewery out near you that looks pretty good. Haven’t had a chance to check it out yet, but the beer menu looks good and the satellite view shows a big parking lot. Not sure if they have food, but I’m happy with drinking my calories.
I’m out of town until the 6th but could...
I’ve had the weathershields on my roof rack in strong rain with no problems. The little blue latch on the side isn’t as strong as something you’d find on a better case, so take care of them. I’ve been thinking of drilling out the plastic peg and putting a metal one in place.
Ran about 30% of the FS roads around Wilson’s Creek and Linville Gorge. Mostly in decent shape. Make sure you’ve got gloves, an axe, and saw with you. Also, check to make sure your winch doesn’t need servicing.
Lots of good advice. Long time backpacker, less than 2 years overlanding. Finding that a lot of backpacking lessons learned translate. For overlanding:
- first aid kit and know how to use it
- extraction gear and know how to use it
- know your vehicle and make the call on what tools, parts...
Thanks Gents. There was a version 1 that didn’t turn out so well, but that’s part of it. Tinkering is part of the fun.
Going to try popcorn on the disc next. Cinnamon rolls were a big hit.
Nice, I think i grabbed the 22” one. Mine has handles. I used 3 pieces of 3/4” EMT and made a tripod and used some cable to lock it to the right tripod diameter. I’m using a Coleman single burner from Walmart to heat it.
Packs up small and I’ve had a blast cooking on it over the weekend...
Backpacker before I discovered Overlanding. A trowel and unscented TP. 6" cathole dug way off the beaten path. Wetwipes back at camp, packed out. Similar approach for overlanding.
Bummed I missed the Smoky Mtn overland rally. Forgot about it and didn’t remember until a few of you posted. I don’t see a thread on here or anyplace else. How was it? Anyone posting their recaps anywhere? This forum or others? Thanks
