Quite nice. But I’m far too in love with the unique look of the original choice.

Smart thinking. And I’m all about the trailer jack journey. Will be watching.

Nice pics!

A few logistical challenges to start: 1. Staying at Paint Gap Road primitive campsite first few nights. Unfortunately, that site is right next to remains of an old but large ranch stock tank. Withe the heavy rains in July it essentially has become a giant mosquito pond in the middle of the...

What is Camp-Inn doing currently as OEM charger?

Certainly didn't need but it was kinda too damn cute (and well made) to resist. Isobutane or propane (with adapter) lantern. Got it on sale for $29. (The leather cover is an accessory.) More an ambiance thing than a key function thing.

I’ve been on most trails other than a couple of the worst (Black Gap, Glenn Springs Road and a couple of others). The Outback with good tires CAN do any of them but I don’t wanna tear it up to prove it. Important to check current conditions because after rains trail conditions can change a...

Looking forward to your road reports or recap. Live in Houston and New Mexico is very much on our list!

It's a nice way to stay in Austin for whatever non-camping reasons and avoid hotel bills. I hear it really fills up on weekends.

This was a short (four nights) but locationally interesting work trip/commute. Had to spend four days in Austin for a training visit for our company. But wanted to use the Raindriop. Turns out McKinney Falls State Park is basically in the Austin city limits near the airport on the east side...
