Went to Divine Llama winery in East Bend, NC today. Thought the light was just right. The wife asked what I was doing, I said "Glamour shot." She just shook her head and got in the truck. Picked up the mud yesterday riding the forest service roads in Uwharrie National Forest. I'm still...

Went out to Uwharrie just to drive around and check out the forest. The last couple hundred yards on Deep Water Trail leading down to the lake are a little hairier than I anticipated. Didn't have any issues, just didn't anticipate the road basically turning into steps. Watched a Chevy 2500...

Ha, former Ridgeline owner as well. Although mine was built before android auto/apple carplay was a thing. We did a trip from CO to NC back at the end of June, except I was towing a uhaul trailer. I have a stock Overland too and I was nice and comfy with my dogs riding along in the back seat...

Ha! My first experience with this was a rental 2019 JLU. Some what disconcerting, you'd think they'd figure something out to divert the water away at least a little. Oh well.

No worries. I'll check tomorrow. Thanks.

Where did you find those? I've only seen the red ones.

Thanks, these are the kind of reports we need.

Yeah, I want to go out there. I've been researching the roads since the beginning of the year when we knew we'd be moving here. But that's going to be a multi-day trip. Looking like that's really my best option. I'll have to look at GWNF more too. I didn't realize it was that large. Gonna have...

Well, that is somewhat unfortunate to hear. I was figuring it'd track the GPS signal or something since it needs to be on to use the app.

I know I've asked in the past, but does anyone have any suggestions for stuff around Winston-Salem that's not Uwharrie? Even if it's just some dirt roads. I'm looking for stuff 30-45 minutes away. I was on my way back from PA and we stopped in Woodstock, VA last night so we could hit Peter's...

So I made my way to Peter's Mill Run in VA today, checked in and started from the south end. About half a mile in, my 3 year old son was asking me to turn back because it was too bumpy. So I'm pretty disappointed I didn't get to finish the trail but I don't want to completely turn the kid off...

Has anyone done Peters Mill Run recently? I've got a trip from NC to PA coming up later this week and I'll be passing right by it up and back, figured I'd take the detour and run it and get my first Badge of Honor. From what I've read it's a pretty easy trail. I'm running a completely stock...

Officially in NC now, outside of Winston-Salem. My Overland is stock with the all seasons right now though. Who's got some suggestions of places to explore for a day trip near me? Thanks in advance.

If you can, I'd just make an extended bracket to drop the can down some to get the clearance you need. Also, nice work on your rail system. I was thinking about just adding a couple extra anchors, buy I might do a rail system like yours now. I've also got some random ammo cans laying around...

I followed Jackson Creek Rd into the national forest and then took a section of Rampart Range Road south on Memorial day. I love all the little roads that spur off of these into camping areas. Finally got some mud on the tires and got to test out the 4wd. Probably didn't really need it for...

I'm hoping to do at least some of this from NC out to at least CO. Got an AF buddy who wants to go too. Might try to convince the wife to do some of it later this year as just a camping trip. Haven't taken our 3 year old camping yet.

I got this and returned it. Probably would've been helpful except that the passenger seat it up too far for it to fit because of my son's rear facing child seat. Also, not really a huge fan of having to use double sided tape as a mounting solution, eventually it'll give way. Also got and...

That's a thing of beauty. Soild work.

Anyone know if Rampart Range Road is open fully? Or any similar roads/trails nearby. I need to get out and drive.

My pistol stays on me, the lockbox is only for when I go somewhere where I absolutely cannot take it into. I usually try to plan for those instances so I'm not locking up my pistol in my vehicle or it's already locked up where before I get there so no one can see me locking it up. As for your...
