    Default Best Overlanding Videos



    I found this guy's channel and his videos are incredible. http://www.youtube.com/user/DigitalByDoiron/videos
    I watched the Colorado ones last night (another advantage of not having cable!!) and am starting the Moab ones this morning (White Rim!).

    From the Colorado Campaign video description:
    "A group of overlanders took a week-long trip to Colorado. I rode as photographer/videographer with a friend of mine from Washington state. Venues would include Dry Cimarron Scenic Byway (NM), Blanca Peak, Mary Murphy Mine, Pomoroy Lake, Tin Cup Pass, Cumberland Pass, Alpine Tunnel, Hancock Pass, Engineer Pass and Mineral Creek. This first part of the video series starts at our meet-up in the Oklahoma Panhandle, and continues through Blanca Peak."

    Looks like they laid the groundwork for an awesome trip this summer- except for the Oklahoma part, I think we can skip that.

    And they hey seemed to need to stop frequently to wash laundry. Oh, I guess that because they drive Jeeps and need to compromise on either cargo or people!

    Dante and I basically did the Colo campaign number 2 last summer. No one else showed any interest.

    i don't remember the trip from last year- but I was traveling a big part of the summer so it's likely that even if I was in town I passed on it to keep the peace at home.

    And I think for some people, when it's a new thing (like multiday truck camping) it seems really hard when it's unknown. Once they see some pictures (or a few videos), it takes the edge off and shows them how easy it can be.

    I say say we plan another one this summer. Probably need to aim for no earlier than July, right- for weather and snow reasons?

    I wouldn't be able to due a week trip but maybe a 3 day would be nice to plan out. Say Thursday, Friday and Saturday then spend Sunday cleaning the jeep when I get back home.

    It was listed as Hancock and Tomichi Pass. We bailed on tomichi, did the alpine tunnel, Cumberland and decided on cottonwood rather that tincup pass. Didn't do Mary murphy or pomeroy. Without them it's just a long.day trip from Longmont is all.
