Hello Rob and Trina, Welcome to Overland Bound.

I am the Northwest Director. @Sandpoint Steve is your closest member representative.

To help navigate through the forums, here are some links that can be filtered by “Region” prefix. We are in the Overland Bound North America US Northwest Region (US Northwest for short).

Overland Bound Meetups- is where all member generated rally points are posted in forum format for discussion of Rally Point and other types of Meetups. A meetup can be as simple as a group getting together for coffee, a trail ride, or a full in expedition with other Overland Bound Members.

Overland Bound Trip Planning- is a great place to talk about planning a trip wether by your self or as a group.

Overland Bound Routs: Downloadable- is exactly what it sounds like. Search, or share your GPX files here with a description of the route and POIs.

Share your Overland Routes- is similar time the downloadable posted above, but doesn’t require you to share the actual GPX file.

Overland Bound By Region < North America < US Northwest- is where you can find regional members discussing local events, Overland News, and general topics. It’s a great recourse to mete others in the regions.

Member Maps- a great trip planning tool. It can also be used to send out messages to members near your location, or a location you plan to visit.

Rally Point- a tool used to creat Meetups or send out an SOS. You currently have several RP’s in your area. Sunday August 14th is a day adventure to Lunchtime Peak https://www.overlandbound.com/event/north-idaho-adventure-lunch/
And the fallowing Sunday at 7:30 pm Pacific is the Inland Northwest Conference Call. https://www.overlandbound.com/event/inland-northwest-conference-call-august-21-2022/
And lastly the Second Annual Salmon River Beach Bonanza https://www.overlandbound.com/event/2nd-annual-salmon-river-beach-bonanza-2/

Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask myself or your member representative team. Again welcome and hope to see you on the trails.

Hello everyone from Baja Sur Mexico...
March 2020 when Covid shut work and travel down my wife and I looked at each other and said "Now what?". Thanks to Amazon and the recent purchase of a 2013 Tacoma TRD 4x4 Sport, we set out to explore our surroundings with our then 5 year old daughter. Prior to that I couldn't tell you overlanding from overloading haha.
Suffice to say we're hooked and though somewhat limited in terms of gear availability here we've outfitted ourselves to be self sufficient (at least for desert/beach locations), and we've seen places that we never would have with any other form of travel. Rig and gear still works in progress (raise your hand if you're done outfitting) but calling on my inner McGyver has been half the fun.
Rig: 2013 TacomaTRD Sport
Notable mods: Bilstein 5100s with rear AAL
ARB single compressor
Speedflate
4xInnovations sliders
Softopper
True-Trac rear diff
Future mods: Don't get me startedView attachment 237278
Very cool! Welcome!!!
