Hola.

New Northeastern overlander here. Based out of Mass. Don't have much experience overlanding, but quite a bit of experience camping. I know my way around a wrench (and especially electricals.)

This is my rig, a lifted subaru impreza. Works pretty well for me so far!

Should've joined when I was still inn Washington! Oh well. Better late than never. :D

My name is Ben. I live in the Tucson area. Looking to broaden my social network and meet new people.

Bought my Jeep jk new in 2008. I got a teardrop on order and should pick it up in July. Always down for anything.
Planning a 2 week trip to Black bear pass, Glenn Canyon, Moab, then Flagstaff.
Hope to see you out there!

Welcome Ben! Hello from up in Washington! Hope you're staying safe and cool today, that's crazy how hot it is down there!

Yes, sir...I keep telling myself it's a dry heat, but, 112 degrees feels pretty hot!

Hey everyone new to this Overlanding. My son and I did a trip down the middle of Oregon last summer before we moved here early this year. Little over 450 miles all offroad from Sisters to Crater lake national park. Setting up the JKU for more off grid camping so I'll have lots of Questions. We are now located in the Colorado Springs/Monumnet Colorado area. Looking to getting some weekend trips in and working up to the longer week ones as we work the bugs out of our set up. We have a 2016 JKU.

Hello Ryan, welcome to the OB family. You're in a great location to do some exploring.

Hello Jules, welcome to Overland Bound.

Hi everyone, I’m Jake and I recently moved to Raleigh, NC. I’ve owned a ‘97 Jeep Wrangler 4.0L for 4 years now but I just started getting into offroading as my build has progressed. I recently did my first overlanding trip out in Pisgah National Forest and I am hooked! Looking to meet new people and plan some trips.

 

[LandXruiser]

Long time listener, first time caller.

Love spending time outdoors but found that as I get older those backpacking trips are taking longer and longer to recover from. So vehicle camping was my best bet to continue that and gave me a way to continue my passion of working on and building cars.

Not a complete noob to overlanding/offroading, but in the middle of the first build of my own. Picked up a 2000 LX470 earlier this year and have put a lot of time into maintenance and upgrades. Maintenance is all current and I've added an Ironman4X4 FCP Stage 3 kit and WKOR sliders to date. Bumpers and a GOBI rack are on order but who knows when those will arrive.

Just happy to be here and hope to find some good trails, events, and people.

Hey all, My name is Steve and was just got a 2002 Jeep Liberty Limited. It needs some work before I start modding it to be able to be more capable but I'm very interested in getting it cleaned up for long travel. I'm Kansas so there is much for overlanding, but i'm pretty close to a few popular spots that I'm excited to adventure to in the next year or so. Joined this community to get some inspiration for overlanding since I'm new to it.

Hello Steve, welcome to the OB community.
