    Death of the “Coleman” Lantern?

    They still sell them, but propane use now. Mantles are still old school. I have one but hardly use it. It does have value at times.

    Coyote Flats to Funnel Lake in NorCal (east side of Sierras)

    This was a triip we took to the Coyote Flats area (southwest of Bishop) last July. Our destination was Funnel Lake. We must have had 12-15 rigs total, from SoCal and NorCal. Epic three day trip. I just made time to edit the video from the trip, after eight months. Enjoy!

    No problem, glad you liked them. It was a busy three days but worth it. Hopefully you got some ideas from my trip or a sense of what’s out there.

    Mounting a rhino 270 awning on a ARB roof rack

    Rhino makes ARB compatible brackets. Search Google. They’re beefy and inexpensive.

    Week of overlanding through Utah NPs

    In April, water crossing were not an issue. Snow prevented us from going up and over a mountain (Bryce Canyon to Cathedral Valley).

    Inaugural Lone Pine trip

    I took my Dad there last Christmas. Neither of us had been. We got lucky with the wind. The snow on the mountains made it scenic. Easy to get in and out. Close to supplies. Piece of cake. My trip:

    Utah Expedition

    Never saw you guys out there but watched your vids. We crossed some of the same ground that week. My favorites were the view from our campsite at Panorama Point (Maze district, Canyonlands) and running the Elephant Hill 4x4 trail to get to Devils Kitchen campsite #4 (Needles district...

    My answer right here. No turning around.

    RTT Installation

    When I used to take it on and off (never comes off now), I used a Harbor Freight drywall lift to put the tent on and to remove it. Solo takes 15 min tops. Most of that was tightening clamps. When not in use, tent hangs from garage ceiling via ratchet straps.

    Roof Top Tent or Ground Tent?

    Both. I choose based on where I’m adventuring and who I’m going with.

    The Overland Bound Rig Built by Overland Bound Members.

    We used to say in the Corps, “Don’t get pissed, re-enlist!” @Michael is doing just that! Good man. The rig will be back in time for summer trips.

    It was rocky. Once we got in, it was worth it. Epic place.
