If you are not familiar with the concept of overlanding, then this is for you.

It is described on Wikipedia as; “Overlanding or 4WD Touring is self-reliant overland travel to remote destinations where the journey is the principal goal.”  

Therefore we utilize remote roads which one would not normally combine with a road trip through America and therefore whenever we are on the “road”, whenever we are off-roading, hiking or just are in the wild in general, the weather always plays an important role. 

It is most likely that even though we plan a trip during high summer, the weather will still make a difference in how smooth the scheduled route goes. A road can be washed out, a rock slide can close a mountain pass or snow can fall early on the mountain peaks.

Therefore everything is subject to change, but that is also big part of the adventure and what you are paying us to navigate you safely and timely through, so you can enjoy your perfect vacation.

Our tours are conducted in a set of two vehicles. A full size pickup truck (for gear and you backpacks) and a full size Suburban. They are fully stocked with camping equipment and everything in overland and recovery gear, all to make your experience more comfortable and unique.

On a side note, all of our major mechanical repairs, modification and safety checks done at a certified and trusted NAPA mechanic. This is done to ensure the safety and comfort of our customers

As we dig into the American heart and soul, we will camp out in the wild backcountry or in designated campsites and therefore we cannot guarantee you running water, a flushing toilet or hot showers on a daily basis. 

However, we can guarantee you state-of-the-art camping equipment, which will make your experience of the backcountry so much better. EVEN if you are not big on camping!

Our tents are solar reflective, well vented and insulated, so that they not only keep the heat out, but also keep you warm and dry in high altitudes.

Our showers are as basic backcountry as they are wonderful. We heat up the water on our stoves and use a pocket shower in our shower cubes, which are mounted on both vehicles. 

We also have tried (and we think suceeded in) to take care of the toilet situation as best as we can. Therefore we can both offer privacy, comfort and sustainability when you have (pardon our French) a poo with a view.  

Also check out the “FAQ/we recommend” section for definitions and tips on camping.

The areas we are traveling through and are camping in, are some of the most stunning, awesome and beautiful places on this planet. Therefore we have a responsibility to future generations to take care of them the best we can.

Not only do we have a personal responsibility, but we operate by law under the “leave no trace” principle, this means no littering, no disturbing the wildlife, being aware of your surroundings and knowing about the local area.
Everything from toilet paper to a banana peel and snack wrappings, pack it in and drag it home.

“Off the grid” is defined by: not requiring utilities such as electricity, water, etc. or Unrecorded, untraceable through normal means.

As we enter some of Colorado and Utahs’ most beautiful and isolated areas, we also travel more off the grid than you would on a normal road trip.
We will leave the cities behind, and go deep into the heart of Americas’ most beautiful and deserted places.
This means we will be away from cities and towns, there is quite possibly little or no cell phone service for days and you can or will be in danger if you get lost in the wild.

There’s nothing better than enjoying the tranquility of nature, sitting around a campfire out in nature, enjoying the sunset with a hot dog fresh from the grill and a cold beer. This is the simple joys of life!

This is also how we dine when we are on the road, unless we of course pass a roadside diner or sleep at a motel. In this case restaurant dining is a little luxury like the occasional warm shower.
