UP 4551 East departs Cheyenne passing under the classic UP style US&S P5 signals. Signal replacement on the Overland Route west of North Platte seems to have been non-existent along with photos of these US&S classics. If its the lack of interesting power there is a 4 track bridge in Julesburg that sees SD40s everyday except Saturday, which means I have another 816 mile trip planned hopefully in the near future...

"Mr Kossoff, the astigmatism in your right eye has mysteriously corrected itself. Let me explain..."
The Overland Track ends here. One of Australia's premier hiking tracks starts at Cradle Mountain and finishes at Lake St Clair. In the old days people could make the trek in both directions, but in these days of regulation and user pays it is a register, pay and travel in one direction only track. As you'll see from the official link below it takes 6 days to make the 65 kilometre trek and will cost you $200 for the pass:

A number of private companies have taken to promoting the trek and provide an all-inclusive guided service for several thousand dollars. I won't provide any links here, but you can find them online if you have the cash. As a former Australian Prime Minister once said, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
In 1931 fur trapper Bert Nichols created the Overland Track and by 1935 it was consolidated and used by independent walking parties. By 1937 it was officially named the Overland Track and the track had been upgraded to be used for guided tours and pack horses.

The Overland Track can be a very dangerous place to be, certainly with the very changeable weather in the region. So the fact it is well monitored and regulated is a good thing. In 1965 there was a disastrous school hike that claimed the lives of a student teacher, Ewan Scott, and a student David Kilvert. The heroism of Scott as he tried to save the life of Kilvert in blizzard conditions is remembered in this article: www.examiner.com.au/story/3068014/heroism-defined-in-moun...

Shots straight out of my iPhone... this is my 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD 4x4 Off-Road truck transformed by the Asheville Vehicle Outfitters in NC to overland and rock crawl... I climbed to the summit of Windrock mountain (traversing one trail segment rated difficult). I then drove down to southern FL.. coming back to IL to finalize the sale of my house. Next spring, I’m heading into the wildernesses of Canada and Alaska, taking a 7+ month photography trip (and that’s just the beginning). It is parked in my driveway here in Macomb, Illinois... but I'm selling the house and will soon be living out of the truck.

Here is an unedited view of the Mundt barn with rough lumber shed in the foreground. The barn is atop the ridge and needed plenty of lightening rods. Modern #287 highway is just beyond on the rise; the original Overland Stage Route was across this land behind me. The ford over the Little Thompson crossed the Mundt property a qarter mile behind me. In fact, a marker is planted near the ford. It commemorates the death of an unknown traveler who died here. He apparently got a heart attack when he got his ankles wet at the ford. Nobody knows the story but he merited a sandstone marker out back.
All the fences behind the Mundt barn are on the way down. I got behind the barn and found better fencing although none of the corrals could contain livestock today. Livestock would get smashed up on the highway now. The Mundt barn and the Meining barn, west on county road #4, were built by the same contractor. Both familes were related through marriage. There are more possibilities than the Mundt barn out here. I found several prizes.
eDDie always finds barns for my agricultural collection. I have passed this place any number of times and it usually had a large, ugly dump bin in the view of the barn. This was shot north of Logmont. The place is about as abandoned as this shed.
A great sky showed up for a while and I raced north but could have found better skies to the west an hour earlier. Any sky dictated a day of trolling around Mundt with the camera. There have been too many blank and milk skies in Trumpistan lately. These are the Rockies but will fill with wet-footed folks from Miami and New Orleans soon enough. Too bad that we are locked into an orange environment now. Kiss it all good bye.

Overlanding in Oregon was simply a delight! This is one of the four different places that I camped in the beautiful Ochoco National Forest in Oregon. This particular spot was just off of the National Forest Development Road 41, one of the main roads in the Ochoco National Forest in the state of Oregon (United States).
I met several wonderful people while I was in this national forest and I now call them good friends. At this particular campsite, I met Mitchel Seals. He camped a night with me and we made some videos for my YouTube chanel (OverLandScapes).
Later, I hiked through the forest seeking a spring of water that found on GAIA GPS and I came across another camping spot that was more secluded and out of the way... but either hiking there or coming back, I lost my cell phone in the forest's undergrowth. After many fruitless hikes back and forth and even enduring a rain shower, I finally found it nearly 24 hours later. It was lying on the ground face up... and barely had power.
Then, I drove in a big loop to the new site I had found. It was there that I met Gary and Jill Miller. Gary had been a BLM ranger in the Steens and he encouraged me to go to the mountain to take pictures. He actually met me there and showed me around the mountain. Their son, Nick, who is now serving as a BLM ranger, had an up-close and personal encounter with a large male cougar. Nick is lucky to be alive. There is a video on my channel where he talks about this dangerous encounter and how he survived.

The original photo was of a whimsical statue seen at the Plimoth Patuxet Musems (Plymouth, Massachusetts ) Photoleap was used to create this image.
If you want to learn more about the museums and their marvelous reenactment center this link will provide information:
On 6 September 1986, then local rail tour operator Train Tour Promotions chartered a consist of Overland cars for a trip from Adelaide to Nuriootpa in the Barossa Valley and back.
The weather wasn't the best, but fortuitously the train stopped briefly at Sandy Creek for safe-working purposes, just as a burst of sun illuminated the train and the storm clouds behind.
Australian National broad-gauge Alco DL531 no.868, recently ex-works, did the honours. Usually on standard gauge, it was only put on BG bogies for a short time after overhaul and 17 days later on 23/9/86 was back on SG.
The Jeepster is an automobile originally produced by Willys-Overland Motors from 1948 to 1950. It was developed in hopes of filling a gap in the company's product line, crossing over from their "utilitarian" proto SUVs and trucks to the passenger automobile market. The basic model included numerous deluxe features and interior fittings in addition to a high level of standard equipment that cost extra on other automobiles. A total of almost 20,000 were manufactured.
