Introduction

This sticky thread is designed to capture a selection of trip reports members have created over the years. There is a lot of great stuff out there and it would be a real pity for it to be lost because people could no longer find it.

Big thanks to Silversand along with Sabconsulting for their great work over the years compiling this reference. Of course I must not forget to whole heartedly thank those who have spent time compiling these reports which I merely reference here.

Around the end of each month, I will post a reply stating the update has been made along with a list of which threads were included in the update.

While I will try to capture trip reports as they are posted, if you would like to ensure your trip report is added then please send me a private message. I also want to start tagging the reports in this reference with details of states visited, etc. so readers can use the search facility in their browser to quickly find related reports; so if you can include that information in the message that would help me a lot. As part of adding the states, if you want to review the older trip reports and let me know which states it covers, I will be glad to add the information during my next update.

If you find a link that is not working, please let me know via a private message and I will fix during the next update.

Enjoy.

Eric (kohldad)
