Greetings from Austin Texas.

Power lineman By trade, and a Pyrotechnian by choice.

One of the most amazing drives I have ever been on has been "The Sea To Sky Highway" and one that I wish to repeat with a bit more time for side trips than my last time. one of many....

Could someone please explain how you access the calendar ad map as a member??? This has to be the most difficult forum I have ever been in.
You go into your profile and turn on your location svcs, which allows OB to show where you are! If that doesn’t work contact @Kent R and I’m sure he can fix.

You will need to log out and then click on where it says you have a forum account and use the activation code that was sent to you in your email. That worked for me at least.

Welcome @Dyllon9! It's always great to see more PNW overlanders joining this happy band of merry fools. That is a nice Ram and a great view of Mt. Rainier. Hmm, 20 minutes east of Seattle, you say? I believe that puts you 1 block east of Seattle (taking into account for traffic).:laughing:

Anyway, there are a number of great overlanding events occurring throughout the PNW, so I recommend checking out the Overland Bound NorthWest Region forum [link] for meetups and to get to know your “neighbors”. One that I know of and is close by is coming up, the Christmas Tree Run, on December 9th [link]. Even if you can't make that one, events are frequently posted on the Rally Point system [link], so you might want to check that out as well.

I look forward to seeing you out there! If you need anything, feel free to hit me up on the forums: @Jedi.

Hello everyone, my name is Dustin.

Location: near Lafayette, Indiana
Current rig: 2010 Toyota 4Runner
Previous rig: 2014 Subaru Outback
Experience: Novice

I first learned about Overlanding a few years ago and began building my Outback to be a little more capable on the trail. Recently I got it set up just the way I wanted with a 1.75" lift and some larger A/T tires. Everything was going great until a month ago when I hit a deer at 65mph totaling my beloved Outback. Now I have a bone stock 4runner to tinker around with and hopefully make a very capable overlander/ daily driver.

Greetings from Washington state. I've been a fan of the Overland Bound videos for awhile but dragged my heels joining the org. I'm driving a new(ish) Chevy Colorado ZR2 but have been exploring, camping, and fishing the pacific northwest for many years from all kinds of vehicles.

I look forward to meeting folks on the forum and in the 'outdoors'. If you see me out there feel free to give me a call on 146.520 (N7PHY).

Trying to navigate this web, membership tab will not allow me to add to the cart. Would like to pay, am I doing something wrong? Kinda of a gypsy here, currently in Southeast Georgia awaiting my wife to retire. I have been retired 6 yrs. Sporting a 2015 Ram Dually with a 2017 Northstar Truck Camper. Additionally we have a 2019 4Runner TRD Off Road and not sure what were gonna do with it. Need that permission slip....We tread lightly and always leave the place better than we found it.
Did you start in the store for your new membership?
