View attachment 2032 I just joined the group, I have an 01 jeep cherokee xj.
And I finally got the worn out engine rebuilt and will be installing it soon. So finally I think I can drive it on longer trips without fear of it breaking down on me.
Been living in Moab, Utah for over 20 years now, but I haven't explored nearly enough!
This spring I plan on driving the Lockhart Basin trail, for sure.
Welcome to the group,

Hello everyone! My wife and I are just now getting into overlanding. We are from Eastern WA, and we drive a 2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. We haven't made many modifications to it yet but they are coming. We are currently novice at overlanding but we are willing to learn and just enjoy exploring whatever we can find. We are big outdoorsy people that try to get into the woods with our dogs whenever we are away from work. Glad to be a part of the group. I do have an instagram account if you want to see our adventures, just follow @pierson610jeep1.JPG jeep2.JPG

1) Location: Phoenix, AZ
2) Rig 2011 FJ Cruiser OME Lift, Warrior Flat Roof Rack, Cooper AT/3 tires, Dual Ham radios and CB, RAM iPad Mount, other electronic gizmos
3) Overlanding Experience Background: Experienced but always learning.

I found your site from a link, to a link, to a link! Ha Ha.... I have had my FJ for 3 years. Before that I had a Honda Element for 10. Once I purchased the FJ it was off to the races.

I have been to and done the following in 3 years
Overland Expo
FJ Summit
AZ Border to Border (Backcountry Discovery Route)
Utah Border to Border (Backcountry Discovery Route)
North Rim
Mohave Road
El Camino Del Diablo
7 days in Baja
Just got back from Death Valley
Countless other trips within AZ
Lots of upcoming trips

I also purchased and sold an M416 trailer and now have a large DIY trailer similar to a Turtleback Trailer. I also have a web site. 4XOverlandAdventures.com or 4XOA.com

I spend way too much time on Expedition Portal and IH8MUD. I hang out with the Copperstate Cruisers and AZFJ folks.

I'm a pilot by profession and at times it gives me the time off to do all of these trips. I would love to quit my job and drive from Alaska to Tierra Del Fuego (Been there by air)

Every trip is a learning experience and I don't claim to know it all.


Here's my setup less the new Warrior Roof Rack.

Happy Trails!
Chris
