Remote places in Baja California are so much better than any overpriced resort. Someone asked me the other day, “Where do you stay”? Well, it depends on the adventure, season & length of trip. Ahead of time, we scout out private property, preserves, national parks and ranchos for epic camping options. We build friendships with local biz owners & guides. We always find the best places to eat!

We have a couple spots open on our Baja Mountains to Beaches Overlanding adventure July 18-23. See link in bio for trip details. Round up your peeps -it’s summertime in Baja!!!

Kick start your summer!

We still have a couple vehicle spots OPEN for our Mountains to Beaches Trip July 18-25.

Camping in San Pedro Martir National Park for 3 nights to hike, explore and enjoy nature. It is soooo peaceful up there. You might just spot a California Condor in these mountains - they have a 9 ft wing span. Then we are off-roading along the Baja coast to a couple private properties. Tacos, Tequila and lots of awesome terrain! We have clients joining us from Canada on this one. Summer on the Pacific side is the best.

Recently did a few upgrades on two ikamper mini roof top tents. Added new LED light strips inside with every color you can imagine. Also did a custom job adding thin grey indoor/outdoor carpet to the sleeping platform. These tents did come with condensation mats like my older CVT box RTT had. This easy & inexpensive hack helps that situation & feels cozy & a tad bit insulated as well. Luv it.

Here another cool product I love & use while on overlanding trips. Most of our lighting gear, headlights & camera batteries these days are rechargeable - right? But I’ve got a couple items where these USB Rechargeable lithium batteries come in handy. Pale Blue Earth is the company & they gave a sale going on.

Bought 2 Overland Pro2 awning in 2023. Installed one on 2014 Toyota that we just drove to Panama & back.
Finally had time & help to install this awesome Overland Pros 280 awning on Baja Betty Toyota 4runner. Ready for spring adventures in Baja California!

3rd car wash during this Central America roadtrip. We been driving on dirt, gravel, roads made with big rocks, pavers, potholes, and deep mud holes. We’ve also been through several mandatory fumigation traps at borders. It’s time to wash your rig when every time you touch the rock sliders(aka road side toilet seat), or when door handles you get yourself dirty. El Salvador at car wash. These guys did an excellent job.

The Darien Gap-
In 2023, I met my hero Patricia Upton at an Overland Expo event. Her Jeep was on display & we learned all about her adventures. I encouraged her to write a book. She has so many fantastic stories. Check out this cool video. This Jeep & Loren & Patty Upton are in the Guinness book of World records.

Introducing Patty Upton, a fearless adventurer and accomplished overlander, showcasing her remarkable 1966 Jeep CJ-5 build. She and her late husband Loren ac...

Yaviza, Panama- Literally the end of the Pan-American highway. Start of the Darien Gap. We walked over the hanging bridge to the other side. I wanted to take a boat ride up river but we had limited time. There’s a new controversial bridge being built there too. Super nice people in the area. A few other tourists & helpful locals. Busy little port where products go across river by boat in either direction. We saw propane tanks being carted across the bridge. Kids playing in the river.

Central America roadtrip

When I’m camping locally or overlanding internationally, I reply on my cube to keep us powered for off-grid living. It is so humid in Costa Rica so we gotta charge 2 little fans for use in the roof top tent at night. We charge cell phones, mini chargers, led lights & etc. when in camp. This photo was at Drake Bay, Osa peninsula Costa Rica. Looking forward to the next Overland Expo to see what new products Wagantech will be releasing!

Central America roadtrip — Panamá Canal was very interesting. Got to see 5 boats go thru in the morning. Then after 2pm they bring in huge ships in the opposite direction. I learned a lot from the IMAX documentary movie that was shown at the visitor center. Morgan Freeman was the narrator so you know it was good! Worth the trip out to the locks to see how it all works. So much history here…

Central America roadtrip update

I’m delayed in posting due to fully packed days of exploring & seeing cool stuff along our route plus lack of WiFi. No I don’t have Starlink…yet.

It took us 45 days to get to Panama with lots of fun along the way. The dreaded Paso Canos border between Costa Rica & Panama was a breeze. Why? We were prepared, did our homework and attended border crossing classes at Overland Expos. One hour of processing & fumigation & done. Easy.

Currently in a cool area called Anton’s Valley. Heading south Thursday. Will post more in a few days.

We had a very easy border crossing from Mexico into Guatemala at La Mesilla. However, getting there was interesting. We had to go through roadblocks in Chiapas on way to border. The local people control some of the roadways there. I did not take photos of course while focusing on driving. We do have video. Locals are pushing back against Guatemalan cartel that’s coming in & Mexico cartels that are all fighting.

Time wise immigration, fumigation & TIP was about 1.5 hour for us. Super friendly & helpful people at Mexican & Guatemala offices.
Unfortunately, Overlandingdreamers Jeep didn’t clear customs/aduana due to no vehicle title. So Jeep & other 4runner IronhorseOverland crossed back north into Mexico.

The drive from La Mesilla border to Chichicastengo was a blast. Through beautiful mountains, small villages & scenic vistas.

Do many choices in food, coffee, chocolate, bakery items & more here in San Cristobal, Chiapas, Mexico. Walking the streets for two days has been a blast. We discovered 2 local markets with just about anything you could think of to buy. If you get the chance, visit San Cristobal!

Today we spent the day walking around the Teotihuacan site. Three big pyramids, museum, underground rooms, excavation sites & tons to explore and photograph. Highly recommend if you are east of Mexico City. The hot air balloons in the morning would be a great way to experience this huge site.

Camped a couple nights next to Lake Chapala. Cooked our favorite buffalo stew-yum! Meeting lots of super nice people from Columbia, Mexico, Canada, & Germany so far on this adventure. My second time camping here & it has changed. Some good & some no so great & too expensive. The area & towns around here are cool & lots of gringos & Canadians live here. Monday we head east so we will be back on the road towards Guatemala border.
