As long as I have been doing exploring, I can’t believe I didn’t find my way here sooner. ‘21 Gladiator(my second one) seems to be the family favorite for our adventures. Love going west, got married on Black Bear Pass during a 10 day overland trip in Colorado. Looking forward to all the info in this community.
Hi Scott and welcome to Overland Bound!

Greetings from Europe,

Hey everyone,

I’m new to OB and recently moved to Las Vegas from Georgia. I’ve camped and done some mild off-roading for years in different vehicles. I’m currently driving/building a 07’ Range Rover that has been extremely capable for what I do in stock form. Looking to add some slightly larger tires and a better quality roof rack as money permits. I love to disconnect and be self sufficient outdoors, that’s what drew me into this stuff in the first place. Here’s a few pictures of the truck from our last trip. Thanks!
Welcome! With temperatures cooling off, i will be planning more trips. Watch your inbox and the forum for details!

South Dakota’s makes a great base state. Several mail services there and vehicle registration/drivers Licensing is fairly easy. We use Americas Mail Box and have been happy with their service. We’ll be teaching some classes at Expo on Sat but should figure out a little meet and greet.

Hey all! My name is Brad, Long time overlander, mostly in jeeps, picked up my first Tacoma, and can’t wait to set it up!
Hello Brad, Welcome to Overland Bound.

I am the Northwest Director. Unfortunatly we don’t have a Member Representative for the Willamette Valley at this time.

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.

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