Based on that awesome shot by @overlandbaz of #OB0000 emerging from the water, some people asked, "How deep was it"? It was this deep and two stretched that took a good 2 to 3 minutes to drive through at a steady rate. The way to cross water like this is to create a small bow wake that travels at the same rate as the truck just in front of of the grill. It keeps water from consuming the engine by creating an air pocket. You don't go diving into the water at speed unless you're just having fun. #watercrossing #overland #OB0000 via Instagram http://ift.tt/2nzJ1G0

Welcome @_jonnyphoto_ You have over 4000 overlanders who got yer back. Your level of experience doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter what you drive. Our mistakes are an opportunity to learn and I can say I've not met one 🐴🎩 in our ranks. Welcome to the crew! 👊🏼👊🏼👍🏼 📷💥: @_jonnyphoto_ #overland #community #no🐴🎩s via Instagram http://ift.tt/2ojavQe

Humility. Willingness to learn. Not personally feeling you need to show everyone how much you know. These qualities will help anyone emerge in tact, ready to face the next challenge. Thanks @vcexpedition for gracefully executing the perfect "bow wake" technique for keeping the engine dry, and #0000 moving. It was without fanfare or drama. Perfect. I also appreciate, "remember Hollister? Not that." #overlandboundteam #outfitandexplore #overland via Instagram http://ift.tt/2nx35ZI

Last stop in the Mojave Road, having lunch in a spot of shade against the canyon walls. Left over chicken never tasted so good. #overlandbound #outfitandexplore #mojaveroad via Instagram http://ift.tt/2nYvECb

Our adventure had one more surprise for us. A dramatic tire failure two miles from home, proving the old adage. Partially self imposed, I noticed the gash caused in the desert, and gambled because I didn't feel like changing it. The cost? A 1:30AM roadside tire change in the dark instead of a tire change in daylight with the help of friends 🙄 landed at OBHQ now, better for the adventure! #outfitandexplore #overlandbound #overland via Instagram http://ift.tt/2nmB5rP

Mishaps on the road. It's not a matter of 'if', it's 'when'. And when you do, it's good to be surrounded by friends. We saw OB Member @jku_rdb on the side of the road post-trail, and we rallied with @mademan925 and @edgeofexploration to get him back on the road. (Faulty oil filter seal causing the drama!) 🙄😅👍🏼#overlanddown #overlandbound #overlandfamily via Instagram http://ift.tt/2nqw5UD

Scenes from a rough day on the trail: OB Member 0364 @marson1 on hold while we wait to hear if there's a radiator back in town. It's members like Mason who make moments like these more than an adventure. The situation was less than optimal, but we were surrounded by good humor, team work and solutions. 👊🏼👍🏼 #outfitandexplore #adventureisnecessary #overlanddown via Instagram http://ift.tt/2nfkAOk
