    Just upgraded the rig with a 3” lift from 4Wheel Parts. Fox coilovers in the front with JBA Upper Control Arms, Fox Tundra shocks in the rear with Old Man EMU Heavy Leaf Pack. I love it! Rides nice, looks great, and gives me the stability I need for all my mounted gear.

    US Midwest Midwest Overland Fest 2020

    What's the climate these days in Wisconsin regarding masks? The event sounds great, but I really don't want to drive 8+ hours only to have to walk around with a mask on all the time. Nothing against people who want to wear masks, but if they're mandatory, I'll wait for the next event. Thanks.

    Overnight trips close to Cincinnati?

    Just found this thread. You could check out the Hoosier National Forest down near Patoka Lake or the Wayne National Forest over near AEP.

    Hoosier National Forest

    Just caught the sunrise and it was beautiful over the lake. Also, it’s easy to forget how cool the stars are when there’s no ground light to fade them out. I haven’t found Combs Road, but it’s only my second trip in here. I’m surprised at how many of the lakes and ponds in the National Forest...

    Hoosier National Forest

    I’m out tonight hammock camping in the Hoosier National Forest beside Sundance Lake. Anyone else been here? So quiet and peaceful.

    Overlanding with Your Dog: Jennifer & Monty

    I use wool blankets from a website called alpaca4less.com. My hound likes to be covered with them. My retriever likes to lay on them. Either way they provide excellent insulation from the ground when they are bunched up or folded and that makes all the difference for pups in a tent. The best...

    Thanks for the invite. It sounds great and I'd love to participate, but my rig is still just stock 4-wheel drive with street tires. I don't think it would handle any real trail driving yet. I don't know anything about Dirty Turtle, but I almost got myself into a mess in the Hoosier National...

    Overlanding with Your Dog: Jennifer & Monty

    I love camping with my dog. Sadie is a Bluetick Coonhound. She’s great company, she doesn’t complain, and she loves to just chill. The only thing she doesn’t like is getting cold, so as long as i have blankets she’s good.

    Navigation Software of Choice

    Gaia gps on my phone is the only thing I’ve used. It’s great as long as you remember to download the map you need. There’s nothing quite so scary as working your way through a deep muddy trail and looking up to see the map on your phone start to fade away because there’s no cell signal where...

    Just joined the forum from Cincinnati. I've made a couple ventures over into the Hoosier National Forest around Lake Monroe and would like to learn more about that area.
