FROM MY CAMPSITE
The gear I actually use on real PNW trips, with honest notes about what worked, what annoyed me, and what earned space in the rig. No fake “must-haves.” The list starts with the diesel heater that keeps our summer rooftop tent nice and toasty on winter trips.
SEE WHAT'S IN MY RIGSTEWARDSHIP
Take This Turn is included with your free subscription, in your email and when you sign in here. Keeping the map and detailed exploration notes for subscribers gives me room to include access notes, conditions to check, and the part where we all agree not to trash the place.
