I got the 90 Watt portable unit they offer. I had seen them while at Oveland Expo West this past Many and noted the quality of the units. I had emailed Brian, the company owner yesterday to inquire about some things, and he responded stating that he was in my area visiting family. He took the...

Didn't take me to a tire selection thread? Anyway, bought a unit this afternoon from Brian at OverlandSolar. Looking forward to utilizing it and will report on it once I do so.

Subscribed. Bring it!

Recently bought an ARB 37L Fridge/Freezer and looking for a solar panel to recharge truck battery when not driving. Everything I've read says that Zamp is a great option. Does someone with some solar experience think an 80 Zamp would do the job? I realize that there are varying conditions due...

Was just looking through your thread. I too, was up north for about a two month period on a trip in my truck camper and posted similiar descriptions and photos on my blog. Funny how when you look at others threads up north tht you instantly recognize where they were without even reading the...

If you've got a lot of gear I'd stick with the Sprinter. I've got a Tacoma with a FWC (side dinette) and a good friend who has a customized Sprinter. I like my set-up but I'd trade him tommorow if he offered. My input anyway.

If it's a 2005 and up it has a chain and not a belt. With a chain it's not required.

Subscribed. Hope you have a great trip and I'll be following along. You'll have a hard time leaving Baja. Spent some time down there last winter in my FWC and loved it as there are some great spots to camp.

Glad you stuck it out. I plan to be back on the road in about three weeks. Will be heading south this time down towards Big Bend National Park and will hopefully end up in Key West for awhile. May drop down into Mexico but not sure yet. Will be another roam about for sure as I have no set...

Great shots Mr. Noel. Thanks for posting.

Been wanting to get an awning on my FWC but ran into a couple down in Baja last winter that had one of these and loved it. Stated they used it a lot more than their awning and if they had to do it over again would not have purchased the awning. Can buy one of these on Amazon for less than...

Thanks man. Glad you followed along. I know some don't click on the link taking them to the blog. I've had comments from others that stated they quit following once I started the blogsite. Stated it was too much trouble going to another link. Shame as I think they missed out on some photos...

Thanks for tagging along and the kudos on the photography. Looking to head south in mid December. Texas area for awhile and then down to Key West maybe. Need to stop in and visit my Mom in Florida on the way down as well so we'll see where it takes us.

Rolling off the ferry in Skagway I sensed the end of the trip was near even though I still had over 1500 miles ahead of me. I've been guilty on past trips of picking up the pace on the final few days of a trip once the "turn around point is reached" and simply pounding out miles with a home...

Jerry....thanks for the link. After going to the link I realized I've been in his gallery in Jackson Hole. He has some really great stuff albeit a little expensive. He shoots a lot of his stuff with large format cameras which is a whole different ball game. I could roam around in there all...

To be honest I don't think I'd pull the trailer again. It was a motorcycle trailer and I lost some ground clearance using it behind the truck. I took it on this trip to haul some additional gear as I thought I was going to have someone meet me in Anchorage for a portion of the trip. Figured...

While in Valdez I could sense a change in the air. The nights were getting cold, the sun was disappearing much sooner in the afternoons and one could feel that winter up here was still a ways off but coming on. I was firing up the propane heater in the camper just about nightly now and dreading...

Got back from Katmai National Park late that afternoon after a bumpy flight back to Homer. Seeing as it wasn't getting dark until around 9 pm I decided to load up and start heading north back towards Anchorage. Figured I'd just pull over after knocking off some miles. Next destination was...

I've been out on solo trips that lasted from a couple of nights to 3-4 months. I personally love the solitude, the freedom and don't miss the endless mundane chatter of group dynamics. There always seems to be one in every crowd that has done everything, seen everything and for the life of...

Great report and pictures. Thanks for posting.
