Hey All!

My name Benn. I’m am a complete novice. Grew up a city boy and never did any camping or anything else outdoors. I‘d like to change that and go on many adventures with my 4 year old.

We live in the western suburbs of Chicago.
I drive a 2010 Toyota 4Runner. Haven’t done too much to it otherthan leveling it out and better tires, BFG KO2s.
We are planning a big trip out West next year and I’d like to learn from this community on how to prepare for it.

Thanks!

Greetings Overlanders!

I am new to the adventure but enjoy what little I have done. My brother and my two sons spent 3 days traveling through George Washington National Forest last month. We had a great time and are hoping to do a trip to Talladega National Forest this fall. I drive a 2017 Toyota 4Runner.
