Jeeping4Fun is officially live on Amazon!

​I’ve put together a storefront featuring only the gear, recovery equipment, and trail-tested accessories that are currently bolted onto my own rig—if it's not something I personally use, approve of, and rely on out on the trails, it won't be on the list.

​Every purchase made through the storefront directly helps fund our Veterans Day challenge coin program, supporting those who have served.

​Check out the tested-and-approved gear here: https://a.co/d/0hc1EaGz (Influencer ID: influencer-0ca1e507)

There’s nothing quite like trading city lights for millions of stars out in the wild.

Far away from the grid, the night sky opens up completely—reminding you just how small we are and how incredible the backcountry really is. 🌌⛺️ Jeep, stars, and pure silence.

How do you carry extra fuel on your rig for those long backcountry hauls? ⛽🏜️

​I mounted dual 2-gallon RotopaX right onto the spare tire using this setup. Just these brackets and a secure strap make for an ultra-solid system out on the trails! (Note: This link is for the mounting brackets only; the RotopaX containers and standard mounts need to be sourced separately.)

Trail days are great, but trail mornings might be even better. 🌄

​When you're out for days at a time, you get spoiled with incredible sunrises and sunsets. I caught myself waking up before the sun a few times this trip, just to grab my chair and watch the morning break over the horizon. The world is totally quiet right before you fire up the engine.

If you're looking for a fun, twisty run to earn your next BOH, Telegraph Hill delivers a blast of a desert ride.

​Unlike the heavy rock-crawling trails, you'll only encounter a few rocks out here. Instead, it’s all about navigating a sea of sand and dodging cactus as the trail winds through the landscape.

The route is packed with steep descents that keep you on your toes and off-camber sections that demand some serious flex. It’s the perfect playground to really stretch out those Bilstein 5100 series shocks and Apex designs USA sway bar disconnects to see what your rig can do when the terrain gets crossed up.

Reflecting on that 10-day overlanding trip from a few weeks ago, this piece of gear was easily one of the best additions to my Jeep. 🏕️

​If you run Starlink on the trail, you know the frustration of having your setup kill power or drain your vehicle battery the second you shut the engine off. On this trip, I used this portable power station to run Starlink seamlessly in camp after a long day of wheeling.

​It gave me a solid 3 to 5 hours of continuous internet without touching the Jeep battery at all. Whether it was checking messages during quick trail breaks or sitting back at camp chatting with family back home without a single hiccup, it performed flawlessly.

Getting stuck is half the fun, but getting out is where the real skill shines.

Today’s off-road recovery class at Searchers 4WD Supply & Outfitters was the perfect mix of beautiful weather, great community, and crucial trail knowledge. With a fantastic crowd gathered outside the shop—some kicking back in folding lawn chairs, others standing by and soaking in every word—the atmosphere was laid-back but highly focused.

The spotlight today was on doing things the safe and effective way. Phil broke down the critical mechanics of proper winch usage, demonstrating the setup step-by-step right off the front bumper of a fully kitted Jeep Rubicon. It was incredibly helpful to see the exact rigging angles and safety checks explained in real-time. We also got a deep dive into the essential recovery gear laid out on the display table, talking through the practical applications of heavy-duty straps, shackles, and the trusty trail shovels you never want to leave home without.

There is a massive difference between just buying recovery gear and actually knowing how to deploy it safely when you are axle-deep in mud on a precarious incline. Whether you are a seasoned trail veteran brushing up on complex rigging techniques or a newcomer figuring out how to unspool a line for the very first time, classes like this build the confidence needed to push further off the grid.

There is nothing quite like spending a few hours learning alongside a community of fellow 4x4 enthusiasts who just want to keep the adventure moving safely forward.

10 days of amazing overlanding... and Holcomb Creek decided to leave us a little souvenir. 🪨😅

​That "unmovable" rock on Holcomb Creek decided our passenger front fender flare was a bit too wide and gave it some custom "ventilation" and a brand new natural curve.

​The good news? The Wrangler Willys still drives like a champ, the 3.6L didn't miss a beat, and she wears her new battle scar with pride. Luckily, I have a full second set of flares in the garage! They say if you aren't scuffing 'em, you aren't jeeping!

​Time to swap 'em out, or maybe just tell everyone it's a high-clearance aero mod? 🕵️‍♂️🚙💥
