Hi all, East coaster here. I'm preparing for my first trip to Expo Mountain West this summer and then on to Ouray. I'd like to meet up with and potentially travel with a couple of rigs after the Expo show to do some trails near Ouray and Telluride. I'm in a Grand Cherokee Trailhawk (winch...

Hi all, Big fan of GaiaGPS for overland and off-road route planning and waypoints, but I'm looking for something that will help me plan a cross-country route on pavement from NJ to Loveland CO for Expo Mountain this summer. Basically I know I want to get there the day before, and it will take me...

Anybody up for some wheeling and overlanding in the San Juans, along the Rimrocker Trail, and some of the more famous trails in Moab? Ideally I'm looking to partner up with one or two OB community members with some serious experience, since I'm extremely new to Overlanding in a way beyond simple...

QST QST QST Calling all overlanding ham radio operators who would like to consider combining a Field Day entry and a weekend of camping and adventuring over the June 25-26 weekend in northern Virginia, in the George Washington Nat'l Forest. The radio event runs from 2pm Saturday until 2pm...

QST QST QST Calling all overlanding hams who would like to consider combining a serious Field Day entry and a weekend of camping and adventuring over the June 25-26 weekend. I'm a serious contester and regular FD participant, but a rank novice when it comes to overlanding adventures. I'd like...

My 30-yo Coleman Stove is still chugging along, but until I can justify the cost of a JetBoil I'd like to convert this old girl to use 1# propane bottles. I find white gas to be a complete PITA, and often I just don't get much of a flame out of it, especially if the tank is less than half full...

Hi all, Last year my wife and I bought a gorgeous REI Basecamp 6 tent. It's absolutely wonderful, however there are going to be times when I'm out by myself and that will just be too much tent, and far too difficult for these old, fat, and creaky bones to setup and tear down every day. I had...

I would like to install a dedicated WiFi hotspot in my vehicle to connect our devices to when we're on the highway and in cellphone range. I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee which has built-in WiFi, but unfortunately it's 5 GHz only, and I have one mission-critical device that's 2.4 GHz only (a ham...

So enough YouTube videos and buying supplies. It's time to start doing this for real. I'm trying to figure out a good route for about a week give or take. Living in Northeast New Jersey means a full day on the road to start out, and my thought was to go into the G.W. Nat'l forest around...

I'm wondering if anybody here has done the Northeast Backroads Discovery Route in an overlanding vehicle, and not on a motorcycle. I'm thinking of doing 2 or 3 legs in MA/VT/NH this coming summer but I don't know which routes are passable in a reasonably-well-equipped 4WD SUV (Grand Cherokee...

Hi all, and I hope the Holiday Season was kind to all. One year ago I bought my first Jeep-branded product, a 2018 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk edition. As this awful year progressed I put a set of rock sliders on it, a 3/8" steel sump plate, transmission armor (to go with the factory armor already...
