Welcome Wyatt!! We are happy to have you as part of the OB Community!

Hello and welcome to the OB Community! We are happy to have you with us!

The monthly Skottles and Bottles Meetup is located in the parking lot of the Sweet Water Brewery in Atlanta, GA. All vehicles types welcome. Come and set up your rig, check out other folks setup, and enjoy great food and beers. Starts at 11am. View Rally Point

All great points. For us we just plan "High/Low" for our trips. I look at where we want to go and the most trail/dirt/forest service/ off-road way to get there (high) and we research that. Once we have our approximate areas set I then look at the low (most paved) way to get to the ultimate...

Our truck is a dedicated trail rig so we don't daily drive it. As such, we leave the fridge in it full time and just turn off the switch when not in use. We leave the lid open and just wipe it out come next trip time. My wife has a small 23l in her daily driver for ice cream and stuff when...

Cleaning the Gear and starting the packing. It is going to be a great weekend!

The Bulldog is at the shop getting new rear leafs and bumps tops installed. Gotta be able to haul that kitchen sink for Mrs. North40

I have linked my Gaia folder for the Georgia Traverse. You should be able to access all my routes and waypoints from there. Let me know if you have any issues and happy trails! https://www.gaiagps.com/public/HTQfUjBx1VRV6ebcMuy0q3wC

I hate to admit this but I bought the Staun knockoff's on amazon for 30 bucks and they work great. I have used them countless times over the past year and have had 0 issues. They took a bit of trial and error to get dialed in but now they just work.

Fixing my truck until it breaks :-)

That is true. I do like that you can have one license to cover up to 5 people in your family (if I remember correctly). that is nice when we go camping/hiking with my sister. Both vehicles are covered under my license.

I totally agree with your thoughts there. Also, I won't hold that ham vote against you :-)

This has been my experience as well. GMRS just seems to be taking off and people are really using it. Especially in the overlanding community.

It is funny you say that because we got an in-reach mini for this exact reason. Insurance for when we take trips and don't bring our teenager with us. Piece of mind to check in and also in the event we get into a pickle.

I got a Baofeng UV-5R for exactly the same reason. I mostly use my Midland Handhelds but I like having this one for options.

LMAO. So True!

This was a great place to hang out for the day. Talullah River

I thought this one turned out pretty well.

It took me forever to figure this out as well. Hopefully this helps. From your computer you have to go to your "account" and make sure that things are organized the way you want them. I like to keep my tracks/routes in one folder and my waypoints in another. You go to your account on the top...

I use Gaia GPS on an LTE enabled ipad. The 4G (LTE) ipads have a built in gps so you don't need an in-reach or SkyPro to send it signal. Personal choice but works for us. Hope that helps.
