2023 Ramping Up

Good day to all of my outdoor crew, as the title says 2023 is starting to ramp up. There will be a major announcement coming in a couple of weeks. I will say save a spot on your calendar for May 12th – 14th. More to come on that soon. Also, new gear is showing up as we speak to make my overland/truck camping setup go much easier and faster. Also, I have downsized some of my gear to make more room in the truck. I was getting to the point I need a trailer or a bigger truck. With all of that said the year is shaping up already. My main goal is to do a lot more camping this year and get out to more places and hope to get out of Tennessee into more of Kentucky Alabama and maybe even into North Carolina at some point this year. So stay tuned here and on the YouTubes for more to come on all of the happenings.

Street Photography Day

Did a little street photography yesterday in downtown Nashville. As always Broadway was hopping even in early afternoon. So here they are the photos.

2022 Rewind

Here is a rewind of 2022. All the adventures and travels, campouts, and jeep adventures from the past year. Can’t wait to see what 2023 has to offer. Have a Happy New Year.

The Parthenon

In this video, CJ and I take off to check out the Parthenon in Nashville, Tn. It has been an extended time since I set foot in this place and wow it is fantastic.

Part 2 of Pickett State Forest

This is some of the GoPro footage I just couldn’t put in the main video. Enjoy!!

Off-Roading Pickett State Forest

In this video, I tag along with Bill and Music City 4X4 and take on some trails and Pickett State Forest. We spent the whole day and still didn’t touch them all.

Driving Tour of Mousetail Landing

Here is your Tuesday video on YouTube, it is the driving tour of Mousetail Landing State Park. I take you around the park and point out camping and other highlights of the park.

Pickett State Forest Offroad

Wheeling Pickett Forest

So this trip had us leaving the house at 5:30 am headed to Pickett to meet up with the rest of the crew. There would be 20 Jeeps driving 28 miles over an 8 hours of the day.

This trip would take us to Mineral Pond, and many other landmarks all throughout the forest.

Mineral Pond

I am going to leave our trek at the bottom if you would like to take this trek. I will say I highly recommend you have a four-wheel drive and at least 35″ tires and at least 2 1/2″ lift and go in a group. This is not time for a solo adventure here. Also recommend having wench and recovery gear, you may need it is some places. It is also known during rainy pierods to get muddy.

Sunset

Below is the GPX trek from Gaia.
