Trip planning starts with a good book...

  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

It's only four weeks to my first proper overland trip, across Southern Africa, and so I went looking for a guide into the heart and soul of overlanding - and I found it in 'The Prairie Traveller: A Handbook for Overland Expeditions', a 19th Century account of travel across the US. What a fascinating read...

And oh, the #1 consideration for overlanders back then (and I guess still today) is...weather! It could change the entire route for my trip.

Can't wait to hear of and read about your travels across S. Africa. Are you going in a group or just you and your partner in the avitar/picture? Best of luck!!
