I was going through many of my pictures, as I tend to do when I'm stuck inside for pandemic reasons, and I noticed there are some I find quite spectacular. I only ever use a camphone (I coined the lame phrase), but camphones are getting more and more capable. Let's see what ya'll got! This is...

Here's a thing we can all get behind. From all the lands on all the continents, let's see your nations flags. Post a picture of a flag caught up in a photo you took on an overland adventure. The more unique and spectacular, the better! Winner gets free membership for life and like a bazillion...

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, my wife and I traveled down to New Mexico from our home in California to see my family and our other daughter. I'll try and spare the long winded-ness I'm known for and get to the pictures and descriptions... 'cause that is what we are all really here for, is it...

how did it go? any news on the next meet?

I've had little luck finding a mainstream market here, so i'm reaching out to see if any other members of this site know where those crazy few of us on the fringes of true offroad rig ownership can go to get the parts we need? next step would be to find measurements, then go in search of...

[No homo] You were standing by your tail gate eating a sandwich, presumably surfing OB forums, in the parking lot at Rollins Reservoir. I was lugging around a bunch of half blown up floaties resembling food products and I asked about your trip and the snow level in the Sierra. As I was walking...

The Mrs. and I have had a much despised and overly drawn out absence from the back roads and byways of this great country. We are usually good for a few road trips, and many weekend camping excursions into the mountains around us, but this last 8-10 month period has been focused on the...

This route is known by many names, and covered in some great detail in various forums online. I don't assume to provide you any new information but perhaps some new perspectives with my pictures and an entertaining yarn spun with my words. Bowman Lake sits at coordinates 39°27'6.15"N...

Hola friends. I'm looking at getting into a '03 KJ Sport with the 3.7 and I was wondering what the consensus was for this platform. As a daily driver I expect to put some hwy and some city miles on my commute so I'm certainly curious about it's real world mpg, it's costs of maintenance and...

The lady and I enjoy running Spartan obstacle course races. We find it a good outlet for our pent up energy after working indoors for long hours, and it's a good excuse to stay kid-like in nature. Last weekend we had an event in Monterey, CA where we traversed a bit over 4 miles and completed 15...

Any hill spots overlooking town, easily accessible from the 215 or 515? I'm going to be doing this trip in a non 4x4 and low clearance vehicle with horrible entry/departure angles. I'll post all about it when I get back. How 'bout some just north of town? I'm on a run down the 95 towards i40...

Doing a little research on creating my own Kaolin impregnated gauze and stuffing and thought I'd come stimulate this interesting topic on here. I've been investigating using half parts clay and cayenne pepper (for it's clotting and antiviral/bacterial properties) Anyone use their own mix, or...

Mods delete if this is completely out of place, figured it would get more exposure here. Hey all. My lady and I will be in Salinas/Monterey area on June 9/10 for a Spartan Race. We are looking for known dispersed camping sites that will likely be open on a weekend, or a room for rent for a...

Hey all. My lady and I will be in Salinas/Monterey area on June 9/10 for a Spartan Race. We are looking for known dispersed camping sites that will likely be open on a weekend, or a room for rent for a night, or a in law cottage, or a spot on a lawn to pitch our tent. We can pay, but finding a...

PICTURE HEAVY!!!! 56K KILLER!!! (i know that doesn't exist any more) ** I originally posted this over a ridiculously long span in October of 2017, over on another forum. I'm pasting the original thread, so it may read a bit off sometimes. It is a toothy read, forewarning. I have tried to include...

Hola folks. Decided to finally expand my online overland forum patronage. I don't get over the land as much as I'd like, but plans are in the works :winkyfacething:. I like to make long winded posts with way to many pictures, usually inappropriately sized for your screen. If I'm allowed, I'll...
