Hi everyone.
I'm new here and a novice to Overlanding. I grew up here in Portland Or. I left in 1984 to join the US Army. Served for almost 10 years before returning to Portland.
My Overland rig is a 1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ. It has a manual trans. about a 5 in lift with 32" BFG KM3's.
I'm also into mountain bike racing and riding. I just plain love to be in the woods with my XJ or mountain bike.

Hello from another Washington member, that's a good looking XJ you have. I am a bit jealous of you having a manual trans.

Hello @Bigmac and welcome to Overland Bound. First and foremost, thank you for your service! That is a nice looking XJ with adventure written all over it. There are a number of great overlanding events occurring throughout the PNW, so I recommend checking out the Overland Bound NorthWest Region forum [link] for meetups and to get to know your neighbors. Events are also posted on the Rally Point system [link], so you might want to check that out as well. If you are willing to drive south a little, @Roy & Kristin Zirpoli are actively planning a whole bunch of events in the Western Oregon part of the region. There are also a number of members in and around the PDX/Vancouver area that you could meet up with and start planning adventures together. One of the biggest events for the PNW is the NW Overland Rally [link] in Plain, WA at the end of June.

I look forward to seeing you out there! If you need anything, feel free to hit me up on the forums: @Jedi.

Hey everyone my family and I are anxious to hit the trails this spring and very ready to meet new adventure minded folks!

Welcome to Overland Bound, @Risco family adventures! This is the perfect place for meeting like-minded people and getting out and exploring, so I think you and your family are in the right place. The whole PNW is ripe with trails and adventures waiting to be experienced. I highly recommend heading over to our NorthWest Region forum [link] and getting to know the other members in the Portland/Vancouver area. That is where we do a lot of the planning for events and just chat about things PNW related in general. You should also watch the Rally Point System [link] for announcements of events that may be of interest to you. Of course it sounds like you are already acquainted with the biggest event of the season, NWOR. There are a number of members who are attending and some are planning on traveling up the Washington Backroad Discovery Route from the Oregon border, so that may be of interest to you! Beyond that, you should check out what @Roy & Kristin Zirpoli are doing down in the Salem area, as they always have something planned.

I look forward to meeting you and your family out there someday. Until then, feel free to contact me via the forums @Jedi if you need anything.

Hiya and welcome to Overland Bound Grey (@Greyr)! I can't wait to hear about your trips you have planned. Chehalis is a great location for launching into so many awesome areas of both the coast and the Cascades. There are also a lot of members to the North and to the South of you, so you are surrounded with opportunity! If you haven't already checked out the NorthWest Region forum [link], I highly recommend do so, as that is the place to meet others from the area and start planning an adventure. When events are organized, they are usually posted to our Rally Point System [link], so you might want to keep an eye on that as well. Coming up in June is the NW Overland Rally [link], which is the biggest gathering of overlanders in the PNW, so you might want to check that out.

I look forward to meeting you sometime soon. Until then, let me know if I can help you in any way by sending me a message on the forums @Jedi.
