2023 Annual Overland Trip - Oregon BDR #5 South


Recommended Posts

Are those the wheels I sold you from my LR4? If so, that set will be on its second club Overland trip. 

Yes they are!! Going to a good Rover. And if I sell the 2016, I’ll put the Adventure AT’s back in and keep the KO2’s for my wife 2013 LR4

You can never have too many lights (says the guy with an extra 600W of front facing lights). 

Excellent advice, that I think you first conferred in Moab, so used some of this downtime to finally follow it...

And then... only 5 spots remain. 

Get your spots quick. I'll be placing the T-shirt order on May 18th in hopes we have them in time for the trip. If you want a shirt guaranteed please be sure to sign yourself and your passengers up before then.

@CRYA in regards to you jumping in on the 27th, we will be in Sumpter, OR the morning of the 27th until 1:00PM. 

If that works for you let me know. The 28th... I think we will pass through Seneca for a fuel stop, but this one is still evolving and the window will be fairly tight. 

Granted, Jeff made it work last year in Primm, NV! : ).

@RobertDingli I am planning on bringing the Joolca HOTTAP Nomad and double ensuite, but maybe we both can bring one each to save space and weight?

Also, I plan to bring my new GuzzleH20 since it looks like we will be near water sources.  Happy to refill any and all containers to cut down on the amount of water we might otherwise bring.

Finally, any interest in divvying up cooking meals and/or food consolidation?  I'm happy to cover a dinner and/or breakfast or two.

Days 4 and 5 are roughly in place! A couple more phone calls and we will be solid to the 29th.

Spoke to Mike this weekend and they will be meeting us on Sunday. I'll double check weather as we get closer, but if temps are cooler, we may swing our transit day corridor back to the West rather than shooting over and up through Nevada.

@pilotgabe checked in on the snow reports and we should be good to go by the time the trip comes around. Most places along our route are either melted or well on their way to be!

  • June 24th, Transit Day 1: Bay Area, CA to Rye Patch, NV
  • June 25th, Transit Day 2: Rye Patch, NV to Dale, OR area 
  • June 26th, Trail Day 1: Dale to Sumpter
  • June 27th, Trail Day 3: Sumpter to Crane Creek
  • June 28th, Trail Day 4: Crane Creek to Cheatum Holler
  • June 29th, Trail Day 5: Cheatum Holler to Squaw Butte (near Riley OR)
  • June 30th, Trail Day 6 ...
  • July 1st, TBD
  • July 2nd, Transit Day: to Home

Stay tuned...

Since it's Oregon, are we allowed to burn fallen firewood...?

That is a good question... we are dancing in and out of various Federal and State agency operated lands... I've made a note to check this. Will aim to get this info into the final attendee packets. (ambitious... I know)

I'll be sending out a detailed itinerary, but on the night of the 25th we will be targeting Oriental, Gold Dredge, and/or Driftwood. Ideally everyone will spend the night here so we can depart timely in the morning.

Below is an unfinalized draft.
