Hello all. My name is Zach.
Located in anchorage, Alaska.
Current rig: 2012 Nissan Frontier sv4x4
I'd rate my experience as above beginner but far from expert level. I'm fairly decent at driving off the beaten path, being an active duty air force heavy equipment operator. I camped a lot in my hometown in Indiana when I was younger. Looking to do more of that and explore what this great country has to offer with my family. I've been a long time lurker here mostly looking for build ideas and trying to determine if this lifestyle is something I want to pursue(it is). Hope to meet more fellow Alaskan members out here.

Hey everyone name is Kyle. Grew up in Michigan where the outdoors was my life. Live in northwest florida now, uncle sams choice. Been into offoading since I was a young guy. Huge camper and hiker, but the family has showed huge interest in Overlanding now. So with that said I plan on turning the new rig into something of the overlanding type. Its a 2018 Nissan Titan non Xd Pro4x. only mods are a 3/2 lift with 34.5 tires. Have a list of parts that I want but, I'd love to pick the brains of the folks on here.

Hi everyone,
My name is Greg and I'm happy to be here.
I live in North Seattle area and I'm a Chef and restaurant owner.
I do have a little over landing experience, some rock crawling too, but I am definitely no expert.
Always something to learn.

This is my new build (still under construction), we call her "Little Blue".

Big hello to the Overland Bound community! I am currently running a 2016 Toyota 4Runner Limited 4x4 as my rig. I wanted to get the TRD Off-Road but figured I'd rather already have a good amount of creature comfort installed and have the joy of getting it off-road worthy myself. I currently reside in the Las Vegas region and I have some limited off-road knowledge from growing up around a father who drove a 93 Chevy Suburban. I am eager to expand my skills and knowlege of off-roading; every manner of help is much appreciated.
