Hello all,
New to the term “Overlander”
Not new to self sufficient.
Life span of backpacking, then glamping, the Small RV trailer, boondoggling, and now added Overlanding /solar off grid travel. Always learning. The wife, teenage daughter, two dogs and myself love to hit the road for 3-4K road trips of the great north western states each year and explore this great country.

Hey everyone!

Location: Murrieta, California.

Family of 5, enjoy trail days, campouts, and good times!

Current rigs:
2015 Tundra Crewmax TRD 4x4
2020 Subaru Ascent

We mainly do FR and Washes to get our three littles out, but always down for a good trail run!

Cheers!

-Patrick

Hi everyone,

New to overland camping and thought it would be a good idea to join a forum and learn a thing or two about the lifestyle. The family and I are out of Las Vegas but I'm currently deployed. We will go on our first adventure in overlanding when I return home at the end of the summer. I have a 2020 F150 that I'm looking to mount an xtrusion designs bed rack and a 23zero RTT. Any thoughts or advice on equipment or best practices will be welcomed and appreciated.

Happy to be a new member. I drive a 2017 F350. I am totally new to the overlanding community, but it turns out that I am not new to overlanding - I just didn't know it had a name.
Hello Dana, welcome to the OB family.

I spend a ton of time outdoors..camping, hunting, etc...maybe it's not traditional, but when I heard about overlanding I thought "I've been doing this most of my life :-)". But I would still consider myself a novice of true
Overlanding.
I felt exactly the same way when I signed up. I have a lot to learn about recovery.

Hello, Happy to be here, I’m originally from AK so definitely not new to overlanding. Me and my family love the lifestyle, along with the dogs too. Oh and we have 2 Jeep’s we take when we go a WK2 and a KL.
Hello Rachael, welcome to Overland Bound.
Thanks! Glad to be here!
