    Canada to Baja and beyond

    Our last camping spot before arriving in Cabo Pulmo was Playa El Tecolote (free), just North of La Paz past the ferry terminal. We stayed just one afternoon and night. Nice swimming beach and it was a blast watching the Pelicans hunt and fly around the water.. pretty amazing birds and hours of...

    @ontheroad22 thanks for the ideas! We did the camper source thing too and mounted it under the door, your other ideas are brilliant! We also got some hooks and hand stuff from the insulation where the tension cords attach. We will be copying some of your counter ideas!!

    Another 300Km took us to Playa Juncalito; you’ll find this beautiful beach after passing Loreto and just before you get to Puerto Escondido. If you look for the big blue Juncalito National park sign and turn left, it will take you down a sand trail to a big wide open beach. It was a Sunday so...

    Canada to Baja and beyond

    Bahia de los Angeles has such natural beauty.. it really is a special spot but it can get WINDY! We had a super windy second night and decided, with sand in our teeth, the next morning it was time to move on. To be honest we weren‘t sure where our next stop would be but were liking the 3-5 hour...

    Canada to Baja and beyond

    It was hard to leave the beautiful sandy beaches of San Felipe, but there are more of those to come! We stocked up on some groceries at the Calimax. It was nice to see they were doing temperature checks and lots of sanitizing at the door. Good little grocery with great quality produce. I got a...

    Canada to Baja and beyond

    We made a last minute appt to get our windows tinted in preparation for the hot desert sun. In El Centro, these guys were super friendly, great to get us in last minute, and a quick install to get us on our way to the border that day before noon. Xtreme Audio and Tinting. We also filled up the...

    Canada to Baja and beyond

    While we really wanted to spend some more time in Death Valley soaking up those views and sunsets.. it was time to point further south. We took the CA 247 down to Palm Springs and CA 86 to our stop for the night in El Centro. Found a cool spot on iOverlander, the Superstition mountain off road...

    From Portland we headed south through Death Valley, which completely blew our minds! We drove the entire loop but only spent one night. Will be back for more !!

    They make them in house and then sell them as a kit or install when you order. They are top notch and fit perfect!

    Canada to Baja and beyond

    Got to Portland and installed some jewelry in the parking lot at Mule Expedition Outfitters. Amazing guys that helped out a bunch. I pre-ordered a Alu-Cab 270. The folks from Overland explorer had sent us the brackets and only had to do slight drilling mods, everything else literally bolted on...

    Canada to Baja and beyond

    So.... covid and borders and everything else. We decided to leave work and go. I had built the truck, a Toyota Tundra, OME suspension, Firestone riderite airbags, carriage works shackles, Method wheels, BFG all terrains etc. But what camper? Covid shut down all the manufacturing and my eye was...

    Was able to add some new jewelry thanks to the new back racks I got from Erik at Overland Explorer. He’s great to deal with! Also did the raised floor and awning mounts for the Alucab 270 Shadow Awn.

    Hey Steve, if it doesnt line up all you have to do is push up or pull down on the rear support handle in a jerking motion. Pulling down moves it forward, and pushing up moves it back.

    Well, not that it really matters but I have the the same config as Chadx. In regards to the comment about layout, i think the new one is no bueno. I tried to remove my battery and it simply wouldn't come out. OverlandEx said there is a way but after several hours of trying, using straps and...

    Chadx, great ideas! My wife generally only uses the porta potti at night for peeing as well. Getting up and sliding it out of the way is handy, plus I don’t like it in the way if I’m going outside. Lol... As far as lighting goes we don’t have much problem with the current setup either but I...

    thanks for the pics! Looks great, we have them looking into the floor for us as well. Some people prefer to not have the porta potti drawer but my wife thinks is one of the best features!
