    Traction boards and a Jeep

    Moak has it right. The things you use the most should be readily available. And honestly when its time to use the traction boards you are already stuck whats the rush? :grinning:

    D.C. area Caravan to Baja MX in February ?

    For now it has been delayed. It is looking like more of a Utah trip in April. Dog had to get acl and meniscus surgery so he wont be ready to go by February. Baja may be pushed to next year. Especially since February is supposed to be baby blue whale season.

    Faux overlander

    Not a big deal. And definitely not comparable to stolen valor. I want to punch a person who commits stolen valor. I want to hug a person who lies about completing the camel trophy because he needs it.

    Mountain House Meals

    Mountain House Meals

    The mountain house chicken and rice is one of my favorites. Grab a few packets of tobasco from panera and you are golden. It definitely needs some sort of hot sauce. I used them backpacking but in my van I only keep one or two for those lazy days. I like the chili mac, spaghetti, pasta...
