Jim and Katya do overlanding trips, lots of them. They are pushing the edge of what people think AWD Transits can do, and going beyond. It gets scary at times. Come along as they explore the U.S. West. They tackle easy dirt roads to sometimes 4x4 gnarly trails that are seriously challenging / crazy driving to get past obstacles and see what is on the other side. Katya is a gourmet cook and they present her amazing Francis Mallmann inspired wood fire Solo Stove cooking in remote camps.
Overlanding means exploring and camping in remote places, usually on dirt roads and trails, and sometimes off-roading through gnar. Off-roading is short duration on difficult or technical trails and not a journey. A road trip is primarily on pavement to popular destinations.
Jim Preston has over 50 years of overlanding and road trips in CA, AK, UT, CO, WY, NV, AZ, Mexico, Canada, and the Russian Far East. Katya has an extensive 30 years of such trips.
