Hello all, my name is Russ Miller and I’m glad to be a new member of Overland Bound! I’m an East Bay native my entire life and I’ve been Overlanding since the late 1970’s... Back then it was called Car Camping. I started with a 1974 Toyota FJ55 Land Cruiser that took me on many adventures in Death Valley National Monument (as it was called back then) and the Mojave Desert. I later had a 1986 Isuzu Trooper II and then a 1993 Trooper. I now drive a 2014 Subaru Forester that has taken me on many adventures, the last being a 3700 mile round trip in January 2020 through the Southwest visiting 8 National Parks with my daughter Lily. So far I’ve been to 35 National Parks if you let me count Monument Valley...
Last year I took the Forester on a solo adventure in Death Valley and after running the road out to the Racetrack I’ve come to the conclusion that I might have to get myself back into a Land Cruiser. I‘ve been looking at a lightly used LX 470 so don’t be surprised if I show up in that at a future meet-up.
