The Average Overlanders Podcast theaverageoverlanders

Jared and Ben are back from out on the road. They've been getting up to some higher elevations lately. Ben just got back from northern Arizona during Expo West but does it different. While Jared was up exploring the mountains of the 395. They talk about trail damage, new coffee setups, taking naps at camp, fashion advice and plenty of random thoughts that pop into their heads.

Jared and Ben are camping together again! They set out for a nice 3 day adventure through Northern Arizona. They were joined by some family and a few close friends on this one. Aric @as_is_overland being one of those to tag along on this trip joins them on the show this week. They all recap the unexpected weather, breakdowns, and all around fun times had at camp.

This week Jared and Ben are hanging out, sharing stories. Jared just recently went out with some friends out exploring parts of Death Valley. He shares some of the cool sights they visited and adventures they experienced. From crazy winds, awesome trails, hot springs and great people makes for a great trip. Also touch on some upcoming projects. 

We got our buddy Mike @flatbedtundra on the show with us this week. Not only does Mike have a nicely setup Tundra with a flatbed, he also custom built a trailer that is probably more dialed in than most trucks. When he decided to remove the bed of his truck and go with a flatbed he had a vision. Why waste a perfectly good truck bed? Why not turn it into a sick, overly built overland trailer! We talk about the build process and testing it out in places like Mojave and Anza Borrego. Tune in as we may have also discovered the next sleeper, overland rig.

We were finally able to get our friend Aim @overlandpriority to join us on the show! Not only does he go on some awesome adventures, he also has some amazing photography, which you can check out on his other page @aimlorejas_photography. He didn't always have all the cool gear and rad rig. He shares where he started and the evolution into where he is now. He may travel as a solo vehicle but he doesn't go it alone. His whole family is along for the ride!

Ben and Jared both went camping in the desert this last weekend but not together. Ben took an adventure with both his dogs and a great group for an awesome trip exploring around the Mojave desert. Jared couldn't get out for the whole weekend so opted for a quick overnighter in Anza Borego. They share some highs and lows from their trips. They also dive into wedding dress attire and pie for desert.
