In 2009, we visited the Mojave Road twice.  It was one of our first real overland adventures where we would learn so much about our needs, wants, and likes.  We ventured out on our first 3 day trip across the Mojave Road by ourselves, with just our mildly modified Tundra, plenty of recovery gear, and the basics… a cooler with food and a ground tent.  The experience was like none other, and it really sparked an interest in further exploration of this type.  While we enjoyed camping and staying at the many gorgeous campgrounds throughout California, the tranquil and remoteness of road less traveled buried itself on us.  We were eager to go back, and a few months later we joined a group on Expedition Portal on an adventure and made some great friends while learning a lot about remote travel and exploration.
