I'm planning a 3 day/2 night overlanding route in and around the Tetons. I've been to GTNP and given that I've lived here in SE Idaho for 7 years now I feel I've got a decent understanding of things over here on my side of the mountains. However, I've never really ventured through much of...

I’m working with a local fabricator to design and build a prinsu-style roof rack as they don’t make one for my vehicle. My fabricator now wants me to consider mounting directly to the extruded aluminum cross bars instead of to the side rails like prinsu racks do. The reason being that the roof...

I recently build a LiFePO4 battery for a café racer motorcycle project as my primary power source that worked out really well. I'm looking to add a secondary battery to my rig for accessories, etc. I wanted the community's advice/opinion on this as I've never ran a secondary battery before and...

A group of us are planning a trip next summer and want to run the Utah BDR in reverse. Currently the plan is to do a day in Moab and then head north towards the Idaho border. I read that it might be more difficult in this direction. Does anyone have any insight into why this might be true or any...

I'm about to start cutting plywood for a kitchen drawer system for my LR3 this weekend and I'm trying to wrap up the design for the small drawers. One question that I haven't answered yet is regarding the dishes/pot/pan. I'd like to secure them in place somehow and not have them bouncing around...

Headed to Fairbanks this summer - first time to Alaska! I'm on a budget (found RT from SLC for $118!) so I'm trying to keep costs down. Doesn't seem like the cheapest place in the world. Apparently there are no rental cars available either!?? I'd love to just rent a campervan or something like...

I'm going to be building my own roof rack and need to decide how to design it. I'm thinking of using almost all 80/20 extruded aluminum. Problem is, I've literally never owned a vehicle with a full roof rack like this so I don't know what I like or not. I really really like the look of the...

We are planning a June Moab trip with a focus on off roading. Looking at Fins and Things and Hells Revenge. We are planning on tent camping and want to have a spot where my 3 kids (2,4, and 7) can play on rocks as the sun goes down. Any tips on a campground that would be a fun place for kids to...

Post photos of your rig!! '05 LR3 HSE HD w/118k miles. Swapped to 18" wheels. Just bought it in December and loving it already. Had to fix up a few things as it had been sitting for a couple years but we're rolling now. Would love to see what people on here have done with theirs...

Curious if anyone would be interested in a group buy for some kind of larger items from a place like Alibaba? I'm looking on there and things like roof-top tents are quite inexpensive but often have MOQ of 10 or more. I understand that people may be averse to buying something like a RTT, sight...

New to overlanding here (and off-roading in general) and trying to find a good list of some of the must-do or "good" trails in the state. I'm specifically in Pocatello and don't really know much to do in the area. Coming from the trail running/mountain biking world and knowing the trails around...
