Old backpacker who can't haul 80 lb packs across the miles anymore but still like to explore the back country. I drive a 3/4 ton off-road friendly truck capable of L3. I have 4-wheeled off and on for 40+ years, mostly solo, but would like to explore overlanding and joining kindred spirits.

Welcome to Overland Bound Ricardo, and that’s awesome you’re just getting started and wanting to get your family out on some adventures!

I’m from Concord and am also new to all of this, but there’s lots of great opportunities to learn from the community here.

Hey Everyone, my name is Ricardo and am just getting started. I am from Northern California in Pittsburg, CA. I just recently bought my 2020 Ford Ranger and am looking to take my family of 5 on some new adventures. I have yet to go on my first trip but hope to learn and prepare before going out. We are all very excited to get started and learn.

Welcome to Overland Bound Abe!

Hi Everybody, - My name is Abe!
I drive a 01 Lexus LX 470 with some modifications. I very rarely get a chance to go out wheeling but when we do, we go out with the whole family (3 children under 13!). I wish there were more public lands to explore in and near WI.
Here are a couple of pics from a recent trip to Silver Lake Dunes State Park in MI.

Welcome to Overland Bound from the East SF Bay Area of California!

Saying hello from Washington State! I have a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder, (That needs desperate repairs to the alternator). Some experience from my dad who was nice enough to help.
(Give me a bit to get membership though)

Hey Kevin, welcome to Overland Bound from the East SF Bay Area!

Enjoy getting out there and exploring with your wife!

Hi I’m Kevin

Location: Roseville, CA
Rig: 2004 Ford Excursion
Experience: Zero, zilch, nada. My wife and I just became empty nester’s and love the idea of getting out and exploring more. Being self-sufficient and having an excuse to innovate and play with cool gear ain’t bad either!View attachment 241244

Hey Esteban, welcome to Overland Bound from the East SF Bay Area!

That’s so cool you want to get your family into overlanding! I lived in Lake Elsinore for 13 years - and you have no shortage of places to adventure down there. Enjoy!
