Hello all.

Looking forward to gaining some knowledge from you all.

We ( wife and I ) live in Hailey , ID in the sawtooth mountain region. We started overlanding about a year ago in our 1993 Jeep YJ. It's small and built to be extremely capable for the way we use it.

Our setup is very simple , pretty much stuff everything in and bug out, however that is changing. I'm in the process of a roof rack build , awning install , tailgate table addition. With luck there will be a tire table in the mix too.

The jeep is down after a rough session of wheeling left us with a busted pinion. Good news is I'm taking the time to gear it down to 4.56 to turn the 33's a bit better.

Lots of fun routes planned for the year already so I better get to wrenching.

Hello Joshua, Welcome to Overland Bound.
I am the Northwest Director. @David H is your closest member representative.
To help navigate through the forums, here are some links that can be filtered by “Region” prefix. We are in the Overland Bound North America US Northwest Region (US Northwest for short).
Overland Bound Meetups- is where all member generated rally points are posted in forum format for discussion of Rally Point and other types of Meetups. A meetup can be as simple as a group getting together for coffee, a trail ride, or a full in expedition with other Overland Bound Members.
Overland Bound Trip Planning- is a great place to talk about planning a trip wether by your self or as a group.
Overland Bound Routs: Downloadable- is exactly what it sounds like. Search, or share your GPX files here with a description of the route and POIs.
Share your Overland Routes- is similar time the downloadable posted above, but doesn’t require you to share the actual GPX file.
Overland Bound By Region < North America < US Northwest- is where you can find regional members discussing local events, Overland News, and general topics. It’s a great recourse to mete others in the regions.
Member Maps- a great trip planning tool. It can also be used to send out messages to members near your location, or a location you plan to visit.
Rally Point- a tool used to creat Meetups or send out an SOS.
Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask myself or your member representative team. Again welcome and hope to see you on the trails.
