    Unfortunately I won't be able to head out this weekend, should have checked with my wife first:sweatsmile:. But keep the updates rolling, love to read what all of you are up to. Maybe we can aim to get something set up for one of the next weekends (smoke and fire allowing of course)?

    As usual, didn't get the notification @Haris... Didn't spend much time (if any) on the OB forums recently. I am playing with idea of maybe going out this Saturday to explore the Gifford Pinchot NF area near Elbe a bit more. I've been there a couple times over the winter but it was mostly...

    Yeah I'll probably stick to a day trip as my plans for Sunday are still in flux, but that shouldn't prohibit anyone else from doing some camping afterward. With regards to the rally point, we could create one but it might be easier to just stick with the people in this thread to avoid it...

    Good point! No personal experiences to add here but I guess we could consider driving it south to north instead of starting at Ellensburg?

    Thanks @M Rose, those are important details I should have included, I was a little too pragmatic there. I should pick up a handheld CB radio as well at some point, doesn't hurt to round out the arsenal.

    There is tons of materials out there but it might be helpful to give a pragmatic summary based on my experience: The primary ways (besides your phone) that you can consider are: - CB - GMRS - Ham (amateur radio) Skipping over the technical details I'd say it is fair to say that their...

    That'd be awesome, can't wait to see your LR4 with those new wheels. Great, looks like the Wenas area is a hit so let's aim for that! Do you have a route in mind or are we talking about the WABDR section that goes from Ellensburg to Hwy 410? According to the WABDR FB group this is clear and...

    Greg (@Ubiety) has been having some back issues so he might be out and I haven't corresponded with him recently so our planning lost some steam. However, I'd still be down to head out on May 15th, I am not too familiar with those areas east of the mountains but the LT Murray area might be...

    Welcome Haris! Great running into you and talking Land Rovers, excited to see what you'll transform it into.

    I'd join but unfortunately I have other obligations this Saturday. Too bad!

    Let's see, looks like April 25th and May 2nd are difficult if we'd want everyone along and from what you are saying May 8th and 9th will be difficult for your @parrotheadnw? That would point towards May 15th / 16th for either a day trip or potentially a one-nighter, would that be too close to...

    Good idea @mmp, here are some dates that aren't currently blocked on my calendar: Sunday April 25th Sunday May 2nd Saturday May 8th Sunday May 9th Saturday May 15th Sunday May 16th Which weekend were you referring to @Ubiety? This weekend (i.e. April 24th/25th) or the weekend after that (i.e...

    Finally got the LR3 back from the mechanic, some elusive steering wobbles at highway speeds that they had a hard time figuring out. Cost me an arm and a leg but it is mostly gone now, so adventure-ready once again! There has been talk here of going out exploring again, who is down? OB...

    That is too bad about those notifications @Hogman and @parrotheadnw , gives us a good reason to venture out again soon to make up for that. :wink: Something was definitely weird because I was actively monitoring the thread to wait for Greg his reply, and the reply didn't show up on the app at...

    She probably won't tag along this time as she is busy finishing up some things and we weren't originally planning to go out.

    Copy that, I'll be tuned in on 146.460 and see you there! I'll do a bit of scouting on Gaia/G-Earth as well to get a lay of the land.
