Hello Chris and welcome to the OB crew..great looking new Toy and look forward to seeing your adventures my NW NeighborHello out there.
I'm Chris, live in the beautiful Flathead Valley of NW Montana.
I have a new Tacoma MT, previously had a '91 Isuzu Trooper and a '98 Honda Passport. Guess I have a thing for Japanese 4x4s (though the new Taco was proudly made in the USA!)
I've been overlanding most my life, but just started calling it "overlanding" earlier this year. Many great memories of exploring and camping with the family and many camping road trips and festivals over the years.
Looking to connect with other folks in Montana and the greater Inland Northwest for new adventures.

Hello and welcome to the OB crew..great looking jeep and look forward to seeing your build and adventures..Jake is doing an awesome interior rebuild and may give you some ideas...here is the linkhttps://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/i-am-jakes-jade-interior-rebuild-94-yj.11216/Just joined the forum and will soon to become a member! I have a 2005 Jeep Wrangler X that will be my overlanding vehicle . I plan to do a sleeping platform inside of the Jeep so that I can camp comfortably for a few days or a week. I mostly plan to do long weekends and things, but hopefully will be able to extend that to longer trips someday. I used to live in Southern California but recently moved to Tennessee. I'm a novice when it comes to overlanding but I can't wait to get started!
That is basically what I was thinking! It's pretty funny because I thought of that idea a few months back but never got around to it and now he is doing the exact same thing. Looking forward to seeing how his turns out.Hello and welcome to the OB crew..great looking jeep and look forward to seeing your build and adventures..Jake is doing an awesome interior rebuild and may give you some ideas...here is the linkhttps://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/i-am-jakes-jade-interior-rebuild-94-yj.11216/

Hello Shane and welcome to the OB crew..great looking Toys and look forward to seeing your adventures..if you ever head east neighbor just reach outHello All -
My name is Shane. I am new to Overlanding and want to get out on some good adventures. My wife and I currently do a lot of Geocaching and we want to add Overlanding to the mix and set some 5/5's out on the trails.
I recently traded in my 2016 T4R SR5 mall crawler for a 2018 TRD Off Road Premium with KDSS. I am still learning the capabilities of my vehicle and have a long ways to go. I have not added any mods as of yet other than wheels and tires.
I currently live in Salem, Oregon and we have a lot of different places to trail including the Mt. Hood National Forest and the Tillamook National Forest. A favorite area in the state of lots of people are the Oregon Dunes in Florence, Oregon - aka, Sand Lake.
I am new to Overlanding but ready for some adventures. Were planning our first for late spring which will be about 3-4k miles over 2 weeks.

Hello and welcome to the OB crewHello All!
I came across the forum while looking around for off-road navigation ideas, and since this forum seems to be pretty active, I am hoping that I can find some good information in here :) My family often strays off the beaten path for our adventures, but they are more along the 'civilized' side of overlanding. That is, we tend to hotel camp at night and wander out to the woods during the day. So not exactly true overlanding, but I am hoping to start changing that in the future.
I'll post a proper into once I have my three posts in.
1) Picture! If you have a rig, we want to see it! It'll come later!
2) Location (General area is fine) Greater St. Louis Area (on the IL side)
3) Rig (Year, Make, Model, etc.) What's left of a '99 Mountaineer
4) Overlanding Experience Background (Novice or Experienced, you're welcome here!) More towards the Novice side of things, but we manage.
New Members,
Welcome to the Overland Bound community! Please take a few moments to introduce yourself so we can get to know you!
A few things you might want to include in your introduction are:
1) Picture! If you have a rig, we want to see it!
2) Location (General area is fine)
3) Rig (Year, Make, Model, etc.)
4) Overlanding Experience Background (Novice or Experienced, you're welcome here!)
We're glad you've found us and look forward to sharing our adventures with you!
In addition to getting to know you, here are the guideline sent to all Moderators of the forums. It's a natural reflection of our community, and what Overland Bound is all about:
From @administrator
- Overlanding is: "Vehicle Dependent Travel". Nothing else.
- We will not further define "overlanding".
- "Capable" depends on the requirements of the trip, and we take that very seriously.
- You are an Overlander: Overlanding is for everyone who has exploration and adventure in their heart, or, who need to be reinvigorated by connecting with nature. Nature is unforgiving. You must rise to a certain level of personal awareness to survive. Sound right? Overlanding is for you.
- Encourage uncomplicated ventures into the great outdoors. Don't over pack.
- Be prepared, and understand basic requirements. Question folks, to be sure they are aware of what is required. Don't assume.
- Share without reservation, trip locations, and information.
- It doesn't matter what you drive: The only requirement of an Overlander is that the vehicle serves the job required, safely.
- We do not care about make or model.
- We do not engage in "this is better than that" competitions.
- We DO give advice about how to make your vehicle ready for what you need. Share knowledge.
- Humility.
- We respect, fear, and protect nature.
- "I don't know" is a great answer.
- We don’t brag about exploits.
- We seek answers from the community when we don’t know.
- We engage in the very smallest of interactions.
