Whether you're a seasoned overlander, a PNW local, or just someone who loves a good conversation, this podcast offers a mix of outdoor expertise, local insights, and friendly banter that feels like you're right there with them around the campfire.

Ep. 42: New Shoes, Electric Kitchens & Giving Back on the Trail
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Melody debuts her new Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T tires and breaks down exactly how she saved $425 at Discount Tire — including the one question you should always ask at checkout. Garrick shares his experience at an Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance trail work party and makes the case for giving back to the trails we love.
Melody also recaps a trip to the North Mountain Fire Lookout near Darrington with Explore PNW — a surprisingly accessible outing that's great for any rig (or no rig at all) — plus it was Yuzu's first time in the snow. Garrick follows up with another mini adventure: camping at Belfair State Park and riding the ORV trails at Tahuya State Forest with friends.
Garrick also digs into his electric camp kitchen build — from the New Wave PIC Flex induction cooktop and Sea to Summit Detour cookware to the importance of a level cooking surface and why extension cords are a must.
Plus: listener update from Episode 38 on drawer-style fridges, and a revisit of the all-electric cooking conversation from Episode 39.
