Howdy - I've been living here in vegas for just over 2 years now and haven't camped in years but I'm trying to get back into camping and, along with that, overlanding. I currently have a 2014 RAM 1500 that I'm working on getting a few things for like a bed rack, RTT and a few bits of camping gear that I don't already have and then it's off into the wilderness. Glad to be here and I'm hoping to learn of some good places to visit this spring.

Great to meet everyone! We'd be coming from Fort Irwin, but hope to have the opportunity to come out and hang out in the desert around there, and get some coaching on off-roading. We've a 2016 F-150 that's basically stock.

hi all, im just west of downtown LV, I'm ecited to be able to go out with like minded people for some off-roading, ,camping, and exploring. I'm a novice but willing to learn n share. Theres a dirt road that goes from coyote springs to the Elgin school house and up to Caliente, NV that I'd like to do, just a thought.

Toroweap is amazing, spent a few days there Thankgiving 2019, heading up there in two weeks for a couple of nights. Have to have a Backcountry Permit if you want to overnight, which I highly recommend!

The Alamo road would be cool. I know we did Mormon well road already but it’s a little different.
I would like to do the Alamo Rd too. What concerns me is the chance of getting stuck in the poof dirt. Anyone done this road? What’s been your experience?
