Welcome Jordy, look forward to a time when the next Indiana meet up will be to meet the Indiana crew. Heading out this weekend to Raccoon Lake for some family camping.Whats up fellow Hoosiers. Im Jordy. Live in Mooresville. I am 30 years old and work as an electrical engineer for an Electric Utility Company. I drive a 2014 Toyota 4runner SR5 and just recently purchased that in February so I am just starting on the mods. I was previously driving a lifted V10 gas/propane F-250. I served in the military for about 10 years and did alot of overlanding while living in Colorado but for some reason I moved back to the great state of Indiana after getting out. I am married and am a proud father of 1 mini me or 3 kids if you count my 2 pits. Hope to hear from ya'll and hopefully get some riding in together.

Funny we had a 18' sport boat for 6 years and never made it to Raccoon Lake. Looks like we missed out on a nice place to float. Happy to enjoy it from the shoreline now.We are at raccoon lake all the time. My wifes parents have a house on the lake down there.

Welcome from Noblesville! I have not had a chance to check these out yet but KY Land Between The Lake and Daniel Boone Backcountry Byways are two places within a days drive that sound like a good adventure.Hey, new to OB as of today. Looking to get my family into some overland adventures. My wife and I have two boys (11 and 5), live in McCordsville (near Fishers), currently working full time Army National Guard. Driving a 2006 4Runner LTD with some basic upgrades (suspension and tires), hoping to get geared up for spring/summer trips (when I'm not doing Army shenanigans). Minimal experience overlanding, but I'm really looking to change that, I just don't know any good places to go in the Midwest.

I've been looking at Daniel Boone recently, my wife wants to rent a cabin there for a few days in the spring. I don't know much about the area so I figured it would be a good scouting trip to look for trails and wildlife. Making day trips with a cabin as a base camp is like taking baby steps for them to get into adventure mode.Welcome from Noblesville!
