Trail Notes: Overlanding Stories, Advice & Lessons from the Road

Not every story makes it to the map—but the best ones live here.

Trail Notes is where I log the real stuff: the gear that failed, the routes that surprised us, the hard-won lessons learned halfway up a muddy pass with two kids in the back asking for snacks. If you’re looking for sugarcoated highlight reels, you won’t find them here. But if you want trail-tested insight from a guy who’s been elbow-deep in recovery straps and coffee grounds—welcome. Grab a seat by the fire. Let’s talk story.
