Professional Gear Reviews
I don’t know about you, but I’ve gone through several variations of camp chairs over the years. From those $10 specials at the drug store to “high end” versions from the local sporting goods store. Like everything built in this disposable world we, unfortunately, live in, they came and went with the wind. Busted hinges […]
Ever since starting our Overland camping journey, fine-tuning our set-up has been an ongoing effort. Each time we venture out to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, my wife and I make notes on how to adjust the equipment to make nomadic life easier.
