Whether you are a weekend warrior or on a more extended adventure, having an efficient and reliable stove is essential to an enjoyable overlanding trip. When we decided that we were going to commit to the overland lifestyle we purchased two things: a CVT Rooftop Tent and a Camp Chef Explorer 2-Burner Stove, a beast of a cooking implement that we have affectionately christened “Big Greasy.”

It’s no secret that outdoor recreation has become massively popular. With trails and campgrounds becoming overcrowded we created this three part guide to finding peace and solitude in the great outdoors.

We have officially launched the Western Wild Youtube channel! Our first video covers a spring dispersed camping trip outside of Camp Sherman, Oregon. We knew that the weather wasn’t going to be perfect… but did not expect to get snowed on for the better part of the trip.
