Hello Everyone. I reside down in Houston Tx. I have a friend who is a current member tell me about this community. Came over here really liked what I saw and joined. I am a total beginner, I'm still looking for a rig. But I have been in the outdoors my entire life, I love camping, hiking, riding dirt bikes. Just being one with nature, it cures the soul. My sister and brother in law have been Rock Crawling/ Overlanding out in Arizona for the better part of 11 years. I go on trips with them when I can and was bit by the bug. I look forward to talking with y'all.

Hello All,

Name is Rich and I am just getting into overlanding, and I look forward to the exploration and adventure that awaits! My father is also on here - @stokescr . He is much more experienced - and equipped - for overlanding than me.

I live in Murrieta, CA, which is about an hour north of San Diego.

I drive a 2018 Tacoma Off Road DCSB. Upgrades to the truck include (recently) King 2.5 EXT coilovers, Total Chaos UCAs, ICON AAL, SCS Ray10 wheels, and BFG KO2 285/75/R16.
Now that I have the suspension upgrades out of the way, I look forward to build up the rig for overlanding next.

I am an Overlanding Novice, but hope to change that soon!

Hey Guys,
Been following OLB on insta for a couple years now and finally decided to join.
I have a few years experience off-roading around the East Coast, as well as in Mexico and Pakistan.
Looking forward to getting integrated and doing some overlanding!

Hello everyone! I'm here in mid-state South Carolina in the heat and humidity. I was up on the Blue Ridge Parkway yesterday in the clouds and it was nice. I had to take my new RTT for it's first test run and things went well. I got to scout some fishing spots for when the crowds (school starts back) subside. I hope to make it to Colorado and surrounding areas at some point in the not too distant future. Researching that is how I found this site. There is lots of experience and knowledge here and I am sure I will have lots of questions. I am excited to get to exploring this site!

Hi all,

My name is Cal, I'm from Wisconsin, and I'm looking to get into overland camping with my family.

My wife is on board as it's a hybrid style of camping that departs from my preferred style, backpacking.

So, I probably won't be rock climbing or going through giant mud pits but I'm looking forward to putting my truck to the test and outfitting it to meet its capabilities.

Rig: 2016 Jeep JKU Rubicon Hardrock - Black
Experience: First overland trip was from San Diego to Montana and back. Safely! It was an, "experience". :tearsofjoy:

Hey everybody! Fred here! From San Diego and been wanting to really get into overlanding and just plain out having new adventures! Picked up a 2019 Jeep Compass Trailhawk that I'm currently heavily modifying and preparing for the trails. Hope to make new friends that I can possibly roll out with once I'm done with my preparations! My Instagram is t3hg3r if you'd like to see or follow my progress107396
