Just found y'all. Exploring and feeling this is a cool landing spot for info, chats and direction as I start more 4 wheel based camping and adventure. Used to motorcycle based camping and targeting curves, but hope to expand my 'wanderlust' with the significant other by using 4 wheels instead of 2!

Look forward to see y'all out there.

Hi Mike welcome to the OB community. Any thoughts on what those 4 wheels will be?

Hello, my name is Russell, I'm awaiting the arrival of my new truck. I've ordered a 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 AT4 which should be arriving soon. For over twenty years I've "overlanded" in the military. We currently explore this great country in our camper (2016 Airstream Flying Cloud 27'). I'm retired from the U.S. Army and we're interested in getting a little further off the beaten path. We look forward to seeing ya'll on the trail.

Hello all! I'm new to the forum and looking to learn more about overlanding and all that goes into it. I have a 2020 JLU Rubicon which is bone stock right now. I live in the Philadelphia area, so it's not exactly high-altitude adventures out here, but I'm always willing to check out new places. I'm a fan of unnecessarily long road trips and will travel for adventure - that's the whole reason for the Jeep! That being said, if someone in Colorado is hiring, holy crap let me know because I love it out there and need to make a move haha.
Cheers!

Hi Everyone!

My name is Carmen and I'm in the Phoenix, AZ area. I recently got a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x2 which is a huge upgrade from my little 2015 Nissan Versa Note. I'm a complete novice when it comes to overlanding. I'm here to get guidance, learn and start getting out there. Nice to meet you all :)

Welcome to the OBl community Russel. You'll have quite the setup once you get your truck. I like Airstream trailers even though I've never owned one, but, with my last name, if I ever got one it would have to be a Flying Cloud!

Carmen , welcome to the OB community, it's great to have you be a part of the group. Lots and lots of great information in the forums so be sure and spend time there. Also, don't be shy about asking questions because helpful information is only a click away.

Hello All!

Love camping/ the outdoors. Have a F250 and a Suzuki 450 that I’m looking to get dirty. Joined the forum to confer with like minded individuals and see if I can get some insight on local trails! New to overlanding but looking to get out there!
Welcome Tony.
