Our weekly rundown on the latest in the outdoor adventure lifestyle
Jennie Symons' Off Road Race Rig
The best word to describe Jennie Symons? Epic. Only 21 years old, she's already built an impressive resume, flexing all kinds of uniquely dangerous and incredibly fun extreme sports. She’s not just an off roader; she’s a skier (and former pro ski racer) whose new passion is off-road racing and rock crawling.
Getting off the grid and in nature is perhaps one of the best ways to relax, reconnect with yourself, and reset yourself mentally. However, traveling solo, especially camping, requires adequate planning and preparation. To reap the peaceful reward, you must put in the effort before you hit the road.
If you've been dreaming about a round-the-globe vehicle-based adventure, but don't know where to start, we have exactly what you need. It’s time to pick a bucket list destination, do some homework, grab your passport and pack your parachute, step out of your comfort zone, and pull the ripcord. Happy travels!
From dedicated off-roading rigs to bulky long travel overlanding beasts, the gathering of vehicles at Overland Expo West 2023 in Flagstaff this past weekend all wowed on every level. There were Jeeps, there were 4Runners, there were massive campers and vans... and a peek at the 2024 Tacoma Trailhunter, too.
The problem with rigs like RAM trucks isn't a lack of storage – it’s how to keep the piles of stuff you can fit in the truck organized and easy to access. That’s why we love adding roof racks to our full-sized trucks. The Sherpa Equipment Co Diablo Rack is among our favorite of those options.
Smokey Bear has been an icon of the United States Forest Service for more than 70 years, but many people do not realize that Smokey was a real bear whose origins date all the way back to WWII. Today, his saying, “Only you can prevent wildfires” lives on as one of the most recognizable ad campaigns in history.
