Hey folks! I'm sitting here thinking about how awesome the jamboree is going to be, and I can't help but think about how much work it's going to be also. Most everyone who attends is helpful to us when it comes to keeping things chill and tidy, but I need a few people who are willing to do a...
I am, right now, fixing up a travel trailer to be road legal and then going to slab city mid April. After that, I don't know, maybe I'll wander on LTVA access land for a while. This is why I needed a traveling buddy because I wander. If you are interested, hit me up. This is my first year with a...
I found this story on Reddit, I don't know how "true" it is, but it's a good read. Its pretty long so I am just posting a link instead of copying the whole thing. True or not, it is an entertaining story.

Came over to the Slabs for the weekend. Figured I'd post a few pictures and details for anyone who hasn't been.
I picked up a French exchange student on the way. He had a grant from his university to come to the States and study people living the vehicle life, and as part of that he wanted to...
Alright, so I have had this yearning to return to the Slabs. This time, however, I am looking to set up a "permanent" home base. I was hoping that anybody who has been out there in the few weeks can update me on what the situation is out there. Is there still some space left to build? I know it...
Just wondering if anyone is in the slabs right now. Never been there and Im looking at coming down to SoCal desert for a month or so to escape this terrible Oregon winter. Can you still swim in that canal, and is the hot spring still soakable? Also wondering what the Day Labor work is like in...

I'm planning a trip to slab city in the next 2 years but I want to bring my ukulele. I was wondering if there were any music stores near the slabs that sell ukulele strings, or if I should just start hoarding string sets...
So throughout my insomnia I've been doing some research into slab city and I've got a few questions I'm hoping to get some help with.
1. Shelter.
I don't have a car, much less an RV or van. How will I work out the shelter issue? As in what can I use to provide myself with shelter? Will a...

I recently spent a few weeks camping in the slabs. While there I met Doc who runs a traveling kitchen. He set up camp near the hot springs and invited all to help or to eat whenever hungry. just make sure to bring your own dishes! Doc is someone I'd enjoy running into again sometime during my...
