Arizona Overlanders

Where do you hold those parking lot meetups?

Separate and unaffiliated with Overland Bound, there is an Arizona Overlanders meetup group here: https://www.meetup.com/AZ-Overlanders/

There are no parking lot meetups on the calendar at the moment because it's just too hot, but @1Louder has posted a social gathering happy hour event coming up in just over two weeks:

Hi guys, new to OB... new to overlanding really. Long time outdoorsman. I just wanted to pop in here and say hi. I'm from Mesa, just got a new rig and am hoping to get it set up budget permitting. Anyhow, I hope to get to know you and perhaps meet up some time.

Things are going well, but this heat is giving me cabin fever. How about you?

Hi Eric. We are in the same boat--new to overloading and Jeeps. Live in Avondale and have spent two years getting my jeep ready. If you want to meet sometime we can find a Home Depot or someplace to meet and exchange ideas. No problem. I retired at 50 (early) so always looking for something to do. David

Hey that sounds great. Maybe we could meet around 44th st and McDowell some time. Unfortunately, I have a lot going on right now, but perhaps I can meet with you sometime next week?

To give you the heads up I have a 5 day trip planned in the rally event forum for a trip to the grand canyon and zion national park. 4 days will be spent in zion where I will be doing trail runs on trails surrounding the park. Feel free to RSVP if you are able to attend .

Hello everyone! I'm in the same boat as Gunner and Eric in that I am new to OB and overlanding in general. The wife and I just picked up an off-road capable vehicle and we are wanting to use it to madimize our time outdoors. I'm an auto/outdoors enthusiast at heart so I would always be interested in meet ups,trail runs, and just general chat about cars and stuff. We are in Phoenix around 44th and camelback.

That's a trip I'd really like to take part in. How do I see the details and RSVP?

Perhaps all three of us (you, Gunner and myself) can get together sometime and talk shop.

Interested in learning more about the jerry can holder on your rack. Planning my Alaska trip for next year and need additional fuel storage. More info or additional pictures would be appreciated.

They are wavian can holders that we modified and bolted directly through the roof rack. Message me direct and I will send you photos.
