Hi everyone! I'm up in WA state. I have a stock 2018 Rubicon Recon JKU. I'm fairly new to overlanding but did sections 3 thru 6 of the WABDR last summer in a stock Sahara...which lead to a trade in for the Rubi and an insatiable desire for more!
Welcome Eric. Did parts of the WABDR with my family last year and that caused my JKU to turn into a Gladiator for more room ;)

Hello Overland Bound Community!

Let me start by saying how thrilled I am to be part of this group! I grew-up camping as a kid. And I guess I’d say my first “overland trip” was with my grandfather when I was younger. He took a kid from OK to the mountains of CO, to Yellowstone National Park (WY), and into the Badlands (SD). Over the past few years, my family and I have been exploring other parts of the county (TX, OK, MO, AR, NM, CO) on solo adventures, but it is nice to become part of a community now.

Base Camp: Fort Worth, TX
Rig: 2020 Subaru Outback Onyx XT
Set-up: New Project with Big Plans
Off-Road: Some experience but always learning

Hello Don, welcome to the OB community, delete your address, you should never put your street address anywhere on the web. :)
But keep your general location on your profile so you get regional messages.
