Hello All,
I'm am new to Overlanding but am in the process of exploring more. Hiked and camped as a kid and have put that on the back-burner for several years and wanting to get back to the outdoors. We have a 19' Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk and should be picking up our tent trailer any day now. Live in the PNW in the Mason County area, near Port Orchard. Looking forward to many new adventures.

Hey all, new member her from north OC, CA. Been camping and offroading all my life (dirtbikes and, back in the day, 3-wheelers... remember those?!?!?), and 4-wheeling more recently in my FJ. I'm pretty new to overlanding though, having taken my first trip a couple months ago, the famous Mojave Road. And that was it, I'm hooked!
Anyway, enough about me, I'm glad to be here, this seems like a great resource with lots of friendly and knowledgeable people. See ya'all out there.

Welcome to Overland Bound Bryan (@bwilkins)! You are in a great location to find those new adventures with the Olympic NP a short drive to the West and the Cascades NF just a fairy ride and short drive to the East. There are also members all around you in Port Orchard, Gig Harbor, Bremmerton, and Olympia so I recommend heading over to the NorthWest Region forums [link] and striking up a conversation with your neighbors. That is also a great location to start planning a get together or outing! If you are looking for something to do, events are usually posted up on the Rally Point System [link].
I think the biggest event everyone is getting ready for in the region is the Northwest Overland Rally [link] in Plain, WA that happens in just under two weeks.
If you need anything, please feel free to send me a message on the forums @Jedi! I look forward to meeting you in person someday soon.
Sweet!!! [emoji106]Michael

We mostly camp and explore the Daniel Boone National Forest. We also visit Land Between the Lakes occasionally. A Colorado trip is in the works for later this summer.

My overland experience is mostly from childhood. Hunting, fishing and camping trips in a '77 GMC Sierra Camper Special RWD pickup with a canopy and 12' Livingston boat on top of it that my dad always drove around. As an Eagle Scout, I still live the Boy Scout motto to always "be prepared". I've lost touch with road trips and camping after getting into my career, but want to get my family on the road and explore again. I came across Overland Bound and it's purpose really fits my personality. Recently bought another 80 series and started work on it. Hope to see you on the road and in the outdoors. Go Cougs!

Hey guys, new to overlanding, but not to camping or offroading. Just recently learned I could combine the two in the south and not break laws. I drive a 2000 Jeep cherokee, no mods as of yet. Still needs some work. I'm near Charlotte NC.
