took forever to get to this. finally moving again!

Go for a virtual ride through Texas and New Mexico? Part 4 is up. We are finally getting into what I recognize (from my tv and movie watching lol) as "The West". Getting there!

Going to be like 20 chapters at this rate! lol

Thank you! About Alum creek... Since we hadnt planned on staying there i had done no research on the area. When i was putting the video together i looked into it, and wow!, so much history! I wish i had known and had more time. it looks like a very interesting area. At the very least i would...

Late , i know, but finally getting to work on a video series in case anyone is interested. We had a great time and i am going to want to relive it in the future. And as someone here said... Do base camps! Camp and explore for a few days. We will most certainly do that next time around! Blasting...

We had a great time on our trip. Too much to do in the three weeks we had. Had to completely cut out the North rim of the Grand Canyon, Utah, and Northern Nevada. :( We saw a lot though and now have a good idea of where we want to go back and spend more time. Maybe even some ideas for a future...

During the drive when the light was on it seemed to be really hard to keep the RPMs where they needed to be. I was constantly having to speed up and let off the gas to force it to shift to the next gear. otherwise it would wind up to 4500/5k before even thinking about shifting on its own. And...

Why got me was that it only happened in one part of the country. I’ve never had a problem near home, or once I got to Louisiana all the way home. Nothing was changed with the Jeep , so why only then? Made no sense to me as a physical failure so figured it had to be something local. I plan on...

Hey everyone. So just got back from our cross country trip. Went through PA, OH, IN, IL, MO, KS, and Ok with no problems. I started to run into issues in TX. Engine light came on and gave an O2 sensor code. Worried me , so cleared it and tentatively went back into the road. Two days later it...

thank you for the info! I was wondering how to get around. we made it no problem. I am sure you are right about the exploring. Our itinerary was pretty rushed and i plan on going back to spend at least a couple weeks on the trail next time.

Out of the desert now. Soda lake is dry. And the water at the crossing was about 40 inches. Made it through both with the 2.5 lifted Sahara with no problems at all (just a little anxiety). What a great ride. Confusing trails out of Marl spring and some of the trail after soda lake. Pretty...

Hey all. Anyone have any word on the Mojave road conditions today? Heading in a couple of hours from now. Saw that the visitors center will be closed. Looking mainly for the soda lake conditions and the water height of the crossing. Figures should be good. .. haven’t seen any rain in their...

Looking at end of september into october this year. And it is a '15 JKU. We do plan on camping a lot of the time but not all. I built a sleeping platform for the inside of the jeep and will have a ground tent as well. I do still have to look at hotel and B&B options foe the wife for at least...

Good morning everyone! I wanted to see if anyone could pass along any tips for route planning. Ive looked at the guides here and elsewhere and the technical 'how to' isnt the problem its more of the 'vision' or 'content'. Maybe best to explain what i have done in the past and what i hope to...

I have met a couple of people who live deep in the woods on occasion. they are always very friendly and have been quick to pass along their knowledge of the area and its history when we talk about exploring. I have heard of some negative encounters with territorial types, but i have not...

yes. I did a ride out of the basic stage route from Coopers ferry to little egg harbor. It was loads of fun and very interesting. I am still piecing together a small section or two. I found even more info after riding the route and researching what was around and some of the things we saw. I was...

A virtual ride for anyone who may be stuck at home. Went out for a trail ride at the northern edge of the Pine Barrens. Can't wait till camping opens up again so we can try some trial runs with the overland setup. in the meanwhile, i hope anyone who isnt able to get out at this time will ride...

Colliers mills was pretty crowded this weekend ... over by the safari drive thru at least. lots of people out looking at the animals. Saw some giraffe, some type of bull, horse looking thing, ostriches, and a lot of park personnel... guess they were keeping an eye on the people on our side of...

Ok. So i finished the bed and i am super happy with how well it came out! Very comfy, not too claustrophobic, good bit of storage available under the platform. And removable so it stores in the garage when not in use! Next up is working on a sun / rain shade that i can connect to the jeep and...

thanks! i am checking out his youtube channel now to see how he makes out with the bed.
