Hi! I'm Chris from Maryland and I just picked up my 2019 Toyota Rav4 Adventure a couple weeks ago. I'm a total novice to overlanding, but excited to get out and explore what the Mid-Atlantic has to offer.

I’m Wallace, new member. I have a 2002 Jeep WJ Overland that I just bought a couple years ago. I live in Richmond, VA. I have a small piece of land in Shenandoah County that I do a lot of camping on in the colder months which is only a mile from the Peters Mill trailhead. Novice looking to have more adventures.

Hello! Noel here. Me and my wife has started overlanding around 2017 when we got our Toyota Tacoma 4x4 Off Road. I still consider myself novice since I do not get to go out there as much as I want to. The truck has a 3 inch lift with Icon suspension system, BFG KO2 33s, just had a bumper with winch installed recently, the RTT we had since day 1. We also love shooting and has been doing some club level 3-Gun shoots.
We're just glad to have found and finally now a part of this active and growing community. We live in Long Beach, CA and I take the 405 to work every day so I had a lot of downtime stuck in traffic and I have been watching the OB videos all of which I found very inspirational and always make the traffic bearable.
Thanks!

Howdy all,
I'm Jonathan Gardner. I'm a Program Manager with Microsoft but in my free time I have a passion for Landscape, Travel, and Outdoor photography (website here). Since moving to the PNW I actually have not had a vehicle. I got rid of my GMC 1500 when we moved. Now it was time to get back into something that could let us explore and find new photography locations. Below is the Tacoma TRD OR I just picked up. It will stay very stock until we start to figure out what we need. Looking forward to more adventure, and better pictures of the truck...

Hey what's going on everyone... just got here so ... you know... first post!
My name is Rachel, hailing form the San Diego area. I have a 2015 SR5 that has been working its way through my dream project. My overlanding experience is pretty good, but very basic as well. As I continue to dive in the community I realize.. there is soooo much more to learn! Anyways... hello!

Howdy, I'm Colton.
Vehicle is a 2010 Access Cab Tacoma ,4x4, OR. It is currently mechanically stock with some plans in the works. I'm more towards the novice side of off-roading and overlanding, but have been exposed to this sort of driving since I was little. Location is in the LA South Bay area (Lawndale/Hawthorne/Redondo beach region).
Free time is spent backpacking, hiking, gallivanting around CA, and travelling to support my SO with marathons.
Dirty, with 1 of two Prinsu racks installed, on the way back from Death Valley at the Trona Pinnacles:
Clean-ish, with RTT installed, after airing down a bit and coming over Old Dale Road in Jtree:

Hi everyone!
My name is Zach and for about a year now I have been watching overlanding videos and reading about it online. 2 months ago I finally saved enough for my dream Colorado ZR2. I hope to begin truly overlanding once I get back from the dessert in October. Right now my ZR2 sits in a storage unit waiting to be actually used.
I live in the Spokane WA area and can't wait to see what it really has to offer.
