When I was younger lifted trucks were cool but the idea of being able to get or go anywhere and be ready for anything has me hooked on Overlanding. Looking forward to many adventures to come.
Finally gave the rig a wash and wax to clean up some desert pin striping so you all get the cleanest I have ever seen the truck since she came home on day 1.
A few pictures of our trip down near Joshua Tree, CA in the park and some BLM land.
2) San Mateo, CA
3) 2013 Tacoma TRD Off Road 4x4 DCSB, MGM
4) Novice in terms of overlanding. Lifelong explorer.
Feel free to check out my bike thread I have posted on TW.

New Guy Here, Jayson from Long Beach Calif. I have a 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Little bit of experience, still learning.
Looking forward to seeing you all out on trails.
Looking forward to seeing you all out on trails.
I grew up riding Go-Karts in my back yard while my dad was using the water hose to create the craziest mud track in the world! I just started trail riding a couple months ago with @Alloy , @Mannyf and @BadMofo and quite a few other gents. My very first trip out to Tray Mountain my truck, Sturges, decided to blow his right front air strut. Thanks to the amazing support of the group of friends I was with he was able to pull through with very minor scrapes, a fender liner that's on the side of tray mountain right around the real squirrely bit and an underbody panel that came off in a parking lot in Heleln. Needless to say, I've been hooked ever since!
Thanks for the link. I love the way he writes. It makes his stories engaging. Not just some ordinary diary entry.

Hey everyone, Kiel here from Fresno, CA. Just joined the forum today and became a member as well (though I don't have a # yet).
No special rig as of yet, just a Honda CR-V AWD that I use and go as far as the trail will allow me to. Have done a ton of backroads and what not back East with family and friends in Jeeps, 4Runners and Excursions. Hoping to have a 4Runner sometime next year after I have enough for a down payment.
I do a lot of traveling, backpacking, and do some photo work for the National Park Service. However I would still consider my off-road level in between a novice and intermediate.
Always willing to lend a hand if anyone is in the area and if I can get to them (for now).
See you all on the trails!

Welcome to the community! You're not too far from me. I'm over in Lemoore.
Hello All!
Just joined today in hopes of getting to know some people nearby to ride with! A little mudding experience and a lot of camping/hiking experience led me to this forum. I'm based out of Hattiesburg, Mississippi nowadays and my rig is just getting started. My truck is a 2004 Nissan Titan CC 4x4 OR leveled on A/Ts. It's a little big for some trails, but it's mine. I am a novice to trail riding but would love to get out more. Let me know if you are nearby.

Hello everyone,
My name is Kevin
Location: Ontario, Canada
Vehicle: 2016 Toyota 4Runner Trail (Canadian Edition)
Experience: Novice, unless you count all the inspiring Youtube videos! Used to roadtrip, dirtbike, mountain bike, and generally be outdoors-y. Then came the kids. Just getting back into things now that my kids are a bit more "manageable".
Looking forward to the experiences!

Glad to join the group!
My name is Dan.
Location: Noblesville, Indiana (north of Indianapolis)
Rig: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Experience: Novice - Love to get out and explore the back roads and rarely traveled paths. Moved to Indiana from the Los Angeles area and want to start exploring what Indiana and the Mid-West has to offer!
Am a member of the Hoosier Wranglers group, but they are more focused on wheeling at the OHV areas. I'm looking forward to meeting those in this area interested in more exploration and experiencing the small towns and people.
