@fountainhead you bring the coffeemaker and some wire and we will get you fixed up! I make a pretty mean pot of coffee on the camp stove also.

@Bomar better get it in now before it's too late!

I don't know anything about primitive camping, but, as long as I have enough lead time to figure out how to get a 110v plug with enough juice to run a coffee maker wired into the 80, I'm in.

1500amp inverter?

Dude. French press or pour over. Faster & better than a coffee maker.

Yup. $30 Percolator. Old school good coffee. Black.

I don't care how many times I've posted this, it never gets old...

Outstanding.

I'm 100% in for AR trip.

 

[FJ60Cam]

I'm 100% interested. I can make you some coffee, JT. That's the first thing I do in the morning.

anyone know the area up there? I have zero familiarity with the area...but i'll be glad to pull maps and make phone calls. Or just wing it...

Andy you know I am in for a trip like this. Camp fire coffee is the best coffee. Love that smokey added flavor.

Mardis has been doing some exploring up there I think. Check expedition portal for info as well.

found a few sources for routes, but they are google earth waypoints. Have to wait until i get into work tomorrow to lay into my Google Earth Pro app, assuming they haven't shut down the whole down because of the weather.

I always pee and fart first but that's just me

when it comes to AR just order some FS maps and go exploring. it is, as my 6yo said about his soccer opponent the other day, easy peasy.

 

[Fireman]

Phil sent me the GPS track of that trip last night.

Anybody have Google Earth? Here's a dropbox site with 10 pre-plotted routes on it.

These look really well done. The guy that does the Overland Challenge up there twice a year did them.

Below is a map showing all the trails. It's a mess without drilling down, but my point in posting is that there is only the one trail (K Trail) on the Southwestern side of the state. The other 9 routes he posted are all in area NW of Conway.
