On this session we bring the boys back together and chat about our experiences camping in the cold.  The term "cold" registers in different places for each of us and not just because some are using celsius!

On session 9 of the Overland Roundtable, we discuss a topic that we have all dealt with but maybe not given much though; when to change plans.  There frequently comes a time during an adventure that we have to make a decision.  We can either act sensibly or push on and conquer whatever lies in front of us.  Pushing on can be the first idea in a string of bad decisions.  The Overland Roundtable panel gets together to discuss their lessons learned, give some recommendations, and share some stories surrounding the tales of when we altered course...or should have. We menti ..read more

On this session of the Overland Roundtable, Dan shares an interview that he did with the group known as Via PanAm.  The group is running from Alaska to the southern tip of Argentina on foot!  590 marathons!  The audio quality isn't as good as usual and the format for the show is different.  But at any rate, its a great story involving overland travels that is worth the listen.   Cheers and see you next time, at the Overland Roundtable ..read more

On this session of the Overland Roundtable we discuss some philosophies and tools that people use when planning trips of less than a month.  We are focusing on trips that are less than one month long because once a trip takes on that magnitude, the process and tools change a bit.  On this session we have two guest panelists and both were discovered in the discussion thread on one of our favorite forums, American Adventurist.  If you’d like to continue the discussion, then go ahead and jump in and share your mind with the other American Adventurist fans.  Lets introduce our ..read more

On session 5 of the Overland Roundtable, we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the various camp setups that are popular amongst overland travelers. The rooftop tend is a trendy, and expensive, accessory but it may not be right for you.  The ground tent is widely accessible but has some characteristics that may not be well suited a long trips or wet environments.  We had the pleasure of having Matt Henwood from Main Line Overland join us to discuss his expertise with Four Wheel pop-up campers.  Four Wheel Campers slide into a pickup bed and transform your truck into an o ..read more
