Hey Folks!
I’m very excited to be getting into over landing. I’m a novice at this - veteran dirt biker and camper and love the idea of doing both dirt roads and technical treks to get “off the grid” to some beautiful vistas.
I’m in the DFW area of Texas and would like to meet some fellow over landers that could show me the ropes - and keep me out of real trouble!
My rig is a 2009 GX 470.

Hi, my name is Qid (pronounced like "kid") and I'm from Seattle. I'm currently transitioning from a converted van to a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara that I bought myself for my 50th birthday. I'm looking forward to expanding my community and finding cool places to explore.

Hello,
I am a new member from Arkansas. My name is Bryan Robinson. My wife and I have always loved camping, but just upgraded to an Off Grid Trailer. This past weekend was our first trip with it. Absolutely love it, can't wait for the adventures ahead. Really glad I found this community, I have so many questions.
