ABOUT OVERLAND BOUND

Overlanding changes lives

Overland Bound was founded and created by Michael Murguia in 2010 after a series of devastating, life-altering events. He sold his fancy car, bought a trusty Land Cruiser, and headed to the mountains.

It changed his life.

With the determination to make outdoor adventure accessible to everyone, he started a blog and jotted down some Founding Principles. People agreed, and the community grew quickly. We recognize the potential for adventure to change lives. We believe it can change yours.

our mission

Leave it better than you found it

As we encourage people to trek down unpaved roads and explore remote locations, we also strive to instill land use ethics and good stewardship of lands both public and private.

It can be as simple as packing out more than you packed in, properly planning and researching an area to explore to ensure you are equipped to travel with minimal impact to the terrain, or volunteering time to clean up an area you love – these are all ways to show appreciation for the land and protect access for generations to come. 

Overland Bound and its members work closely with the US National Parks Service, National Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management to restore, repair and re-open trails. 

Our Trail Guardian program has removed over 100 tons of garbage off public lands since 2018, with many more clean up projects in the works.

We are also official partners of TREAD Lightly and encourage all Overland Bound member to complete their free 101 Online Awareness course.
