Several full timers here... @Jeepsies are just one of many that come to mind. jesseazarva

Just be mindful of the weather, check with the park services for those areas... some parks shut down on October 31st. Some forest roads close to automobiles in November 1st. So check weather conditions, make sure places you want to go are open, and lastly be prepared for the unexpected. Have...

Wen are you planning on coming out west. We have a snow front setting on top of us for the next week or so. My best friend in SD said they are getting hammered and had to shut down his farming operations for the year already (typically they run until the first week of December).

Of course you can reach out to myself, or any of the northwest member representative team for local information. Parts of the northwest are being hit harder than others in this pandemic... where I live it’s statistically more probable to get trampled by a raging bull than getting the virus...

From what I just found, all you need is your Vetean ID card to be admitted... just be mindful that there is a “May” grant access or discounts at the public lands you are wishing to visit. If the park, campground, or commissary is ran by a private third party, then the discounts don’t apply...

I’ve been doing this for years... I carry three 9x9 backpacking tarps in my emergency kit, that I set up to make an awning with sides just as pictured, or to make a shelter with.

Part of my kit that I keep in my rig is a full box of contractors garbage bags and disposable rubber gloves. When the box of gloves and/or bags gets bellow 1/2 I buy another box of each. I store them under the passenger seat. Neat, out of the way, but can always be reached very quickly and easily.

I used to think the same thing... but I have learned over the past couple of years that public shaming works wonders... by that I mean take pictures, stop in at the ranger station in charge of the area and show them the pictures, walk them out to the rig and show them the amount of trash you...

I created a Rally Point today using the OB1 App. The whole process went very smoothly until I went to view the Rally Point in the Overland Bound Meetups forum. The description of the meetup was there, but no link back to the actual RP where critical information for the meetup is listed...

I’m pretty sure I first learned of the T.W.A.T on a Wisconsin state literature page for backpacking as I was researching backpacking trips a crossed the US a couple of years back.

@Lanlubber is near you looking for others as well
