    Garmin Overlander

    As somebody said. Download the GPX files from the BDR website to your Overlander. I currently have AZ, NM, UT, ID, WA, NV BDR's on my Overlander. I've done all of them except UT. I did all of WA, NV, ID, and much of NM using my Overlander. I also did the AZ Peace Trail using my Overlander after...

    Thanks gawd a resource doesn't exist that has all the cow trails in Baja. That is half the fun of exploring down there.

    Garmin Overlander

    Moving from BC to the Overlander was not my problem. Moving tracks from the Overlander to BC was. I had to export the track from the Overlander to Garmin first, then reimport it to use in BC.

    I could not get my Overlander to export directly to Basecamp like I can my GPSMAP64.

    I was under the impression that you could upload apps. But, I haven't been able to do so. Not saying it can't be done, just that I couldn't figure it out.

    Pappy's Western Canada Adventure, September 2021

    I was on the Canol Rd from Sept 5-8th. I did it from Johnson's Crossing to MacMillian Pass and back to Ross River. I would absolutely do the south Canol. The north Canol is not as remote as the overlanding chamber of commerce promotes. Yes, it's a long way up, and back, but ... lots of traffic...

    Maintaining a small prairie remnant in southeastern Wisconsin

    Fantastic! I was just sent here by a buddy. This botanist approves. Great effort. If I lived closer I would offer to help with the weed removal.

    Have you made your own DIY propane hose for a camp stove?

    Geez, I didn't realize who made this post. My apologies Ash. Go to Action Hose on Stanford, off Candelaria. They should be able to set you up.

    Have you made your own DIY propane hose for a camp stove?

    Getting it made with a longer hose should not be a problem. Any hose shop should be able to cut the ferrules off the fitting, and the regulator, and install new ferrules with the hose length of your choice. I just had my Partner Steel stove hose lengthened. Different deal, but same idea.

    Garmin Overlander

    Excellent. When I'm out my inReach tracking is on all the time. I never turn it off, so having the Overlander turn it on and off via Track Recorder won't work for me. Like I said, though, I have the inReach sync'd to my phone, so this isn't an issue. I will look at Travel History. I'm not sure I...

    Garmin Overlander

    I've been using the Explore website for several years with my inReach. I have no idea how it will handle the Overlander, yet. I can say I do not like the Library Collections of my tracks. For some reason, I just don't get it. Basecamp makes sense to me, so I will probably keep using that. Unlike...

    Well, I missed the $100 off sale a few months back. I decided I wasn't going to make the same mistake twice. I finally made the purchase. Background ... I currently use a GPSMAP 64st, an inReach SE+, and a Samsung Tab A (2017) tablet. My thought was to consolidate the Tablet and the 64st. I use...

    270 vs Standard Awning

    A wise buddy said once that "you can never have enough shade in the desert." As a desert boy this was a very profound statement that had occurred to be, but never articulated. I ran an ARB awning for a few years. In the desert it was never enough, and I had camo netting that I draped off the...

    Partner stove mod.. piezo ignition

    I can tip the grill/burner back and still clean it. I don't need to take it out. And if I did, the connector off the end of the push-button is easy to remove.

    Rhino-Rack BatWing Review/Write Up

    I did. I contacted the folks at Rhino-Rack. Their answer was: "Thank you for contacting Rhino Rack. I apologize for any confusion, this will only work on the Left hand. I will work to get that fixed on the compatibility." They suggested the Tapered Zip Extension, part 31112.
