Photography by Chris Cordes The trailer listed hard to the side, the 44-inch tire deep into the crevasse, the Hilux’s frame broken, and a tire peeled from the bead. The Expeditions 7 team had just crossed Greenland and was now fighting for every mile in a minefield of…

It was nearly 100°F. I sat on a metal chair with water soaking my shirt, a last-ditch effort against the stifling heat. Even in the shade, the temperature was nearly unbearable. Inside the open-air pavilion, Jessica and I sat enraptured, listening to the stories being told by Pablo Rey and Anna Callau, two travelers who’d been driving around the world…

Photography by Chris Cordes, Scott Brady and Sarah Ramm The grass is greener on the other side, at least when it comes to Land Cruisers. As of 2014, Americans were able to begin importing the venerable 70 Series into the United States under the 25-year historic vehicle…

Editor’s Note: This article was originally published in Overland Journal, Winter 2014. I will be the first to admit that the introduction of a Land Rover Discovery with an independent suspension system sounded like the death knell to a brand I have come to love.

Editor’s Note: This article was originally published in Overland Journal, Summer 2015.

It’s all in the name––Text Anywhere. A tool for those of us who can only get away from it all, by staying connected to it all.

Some of these items are brand spanking new, others are freshly discovered items we feel have improved our travels. Some, are just cool things we’d love to own. Here are our favorites of 2013

December was a wildly successful month of expedition in Antarctica. Records have fallen, firsts achieved, and members of our own Expedition Portal community have made successful bids on the shiny globe at the bottom of the planet.

Affordable, capable, and as reliable as hammer, the KLR’s are excellent platforms. They do however, benefit from a few key modifications like AltRider’s new KLR Skid Plate.

While the summers in Antarctica are far from warm, the temperatures rise enough for explorers and scientists alike to travel the continent. With the season upon us here’s a look at things to come.
