hello,
I’m located in Fort Worth, TX. For the global folks no, I don’t ride a horse. I do drive a 2015 Subaru Outback, 2.5i with a CVT transmission. I’ve owned it just over a year. Overland experience is definitely beginner, but I have mediocre off road experience. I can generally pick a good line and know my limits.

Hey all,
Been a member here for a month or so, I am just now getting around to really explore the forums. Anyway name here is Travis and I hail in Oregon for now. Moving back to Wyoming sometime this summer... I think. I drive a 2012 Jeep JKU with a 3" lift with 35's and ride a 2015 BMW G650GS dualsport motorcycle. I enjoy car/motorcycle camping and exploring quite a bit. When I turned 16 (1993) I passed my license test shortly after. First thing I did was throw all my camping gear in the truck and took off in the Mt Hood National Forest for a few days. Been an addict ever since. Due to my career choice I haven't been able to do this for the past 15 years or so. Now that I work less and have more time I am getting back into overlanding. Mind you, it was never called overlanding back then... we just called it camping and exploring. I am a pretty big ham radio enthusiast so I usually take all my portable radio gear and nerd out after the camp is all set up. I've been on a few trips this year already and I am planing to get out there more. I am having fun re-hashing the past and re-discovering all the places that I used to explore back in the 90's. Hope to see you all out there on the trail and I am looking forward to posting and reading more on the forums.
