Sorry for the late post everyone. You see, I’ve been watching the live feed of the 2022 King of the Hammers (KOH) race on Ultra4racing.com (and it also streams live on their YouTube channel!). For the un-initiated, KOH is a desert off-road race held in Johnson Valley California on an annual basis. The race isContinue reading “Late is better than never…”

Snow, Jeeps, and Frustration!
This past weekend, we went snow wheeling in the Yankee Hill area of the Colorado mountains, which is just outside of the gambling towns of Black Hawk and Central City. The area is fun because to get to the trail, you drive through the Main Street of Central City, which really doesn’t look much differentContinue reading “Snow, Jeeps, and Frustration!”
The Changing Terrain
This past week was monumental from the perspective of realizing what changes I need to make in my life. I initially started “adventuring,” or “overlanding” (whatever it should be called these days…) because I was trying to get a break from my work life and just enjoy nature. As I got more into being outdoors,Continue reading “The Changing Terrain”
Nurturing the Inner Badass
Ask anyone who has a hobby- no matter if it’s flyfishing, frisbee golf, or knitting- they will probably tell you they feel a sense of accomplishment when their goal is reached. I call that sense of accomplishment the inner badass. When I’m out 4-wheeling on a trail, there’s nothing like looking at an obstacle andContinue reading “Nurturing the Inner Badass”
Problem Solving and Adventure Go Together Like Peas and…
Carrots! I was speaking with a great friend of mine who I was supposed to go winter four-wheeling with this past week. Due to some scheduling conflicts, I wasn’t able to go. My friend decided to go alone and brave the winter snow wheeling trail just outside of Boulder, Colorado. Of course, I asked “howContinue reading “Problem Solving and Adventure Go Together Like Peas and…”
Defining Ideas: Dreams vs. Reality
I’m sure it’s been obvious in previous blog posts- but I’m going to state what may be the obvious: I’m a big car guy. In the past, my infatuation with cars has led to poor financial decisions (anyone know what being underwater on a car loan means?), to wasting money on insurance, registration, and taxesContinue reading “Defining Ideas: Dreams vs. Reality”
Re-Evaluating and Coming Back!
Hey there! I know it’s been a really long time since there’s been a blog post here- to be frank, things just got hectic and this blog moved to the back burner. No more, I say!! I want to provide some updates, some exciting developments, and make sure that you all know (not that there’sContinue reading “Re-Evaluating and Coming Back!”
Rooftop tents and vehicle recoveries
The last two weekends have seen heavy use of our 2021 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon- I took it camping with our 5 1/2 year old son for his first tent-based camping trip. A good family friend joined us with his own rooftop tent setup on his homemade UTV trailer. I continue to be astounded by theContinue reading “Rooftop tents and vehicle recoveries”
Upgrades, the future, and beyond…
I sit here writing this as I await new tires to be mounted onto Cruz, a Forest River E-Pro E19BH travel camper. We have loved Cruz since we picked her up last year in the midst of the pandemic. I have seen a huge shift in the mindset of everyone around us- the desire toContinue reading “Upgrades, the future, and beyond…”
Moab Fun
The second weekend of April in 2021 was a fun one for us- we got take the recently RLD Design and iKamper Skycamp 2.0 equipped 2021 Jeep Gladiator to Moab! We absolutely loved the additional storage space the Jeep Gladiator has compared to our tried and true Toyota 4Runner. We discovered quickly that we needContinue reading “Moab Fun”
