Thanks! Trying to figure the site out hahaha
Information overload at its finest... the forum is broken down into topic groups.

Welcome to Overland Bound is where new comers can find information about what Overlanding means to us as members here. The Core Values that we swear to uphold by becoming members, and where we get first introduce ourselves to the community.

Overland Discussion is where we discuss Navigation, cooking , camping, recreation, and photography. This section is one of my favorites to browse through daily. Lots of ideas are shared amongst the community.

Overland Trips. Wow what a great topic... The very first section Member Meetups is where you can events in your area. The rest of the sections break down different trips from planning a trip, to seeing some one else’s trip they completed, to finding a trail that might interest you.

I will leave it like that for now. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask.

Overland Bound is split up into regions with a Regional Director, and a group of Member Representatives that help the Regional Director keep members informed on things going on through the region, welcoming new members, help members navigate through the forum as well as navigate to a local group to help share Overlanding with like minded people. You are in the US Southwest Region. Your Director is @brien . Don’t hesitate to contact him with any questions, concerns, or ideas. He is here to help you.

Hey, I'm Chris. I grew up in the Midwest, but lived in many of the regions of the US. Currently in WA state and plan on being in this general area (Washington/Idaho/Montana) into the forseeable future.

My dream vehicle(s) is/are a ’93/’94 Land Cruiser and a new Ram 3500 Prospector XL. Never going to happen, but have to fantasize about something.

My current rig is a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 Z71. It has 0” lift, and stock size wheels and tires :D) Would love to start building it out, but am a total newb when it comes to appropriate choices while staying in my GVWR. Is it appropriate to ask questions I have about my build in people who have similar vehicles build threads?

Hello from Santa Cruz, CA. My wife and I recently purchased a 2001 Ford Excursion diesel to use as our build platform. We are experienced campers and have been getting into overlanding the past few years. Currently we use a 2011 Outback with mods for off road but needed something bigger so we got the Excursion. A trip to Moab last year made us realize we want to do longer overland trips and get way out there.

We are looking forward to some meet ups, future adventures and building the rig to get us where we want to go.
Welcome to Overland Bound!

Hey y’all I’m Blake. I’m a Novice at overlanding but I’m an off-road enthusiast. I currently have a 17 Ford F-350 DRW but also looking for a smaller truck for eventually overlanding and to drive to work (which is sometimes.. well a lot of time off road through mud and rock). I pipeline for a living so the 350 will still be pulling the 5th wheel as I practically live on the road. Therfore I’m all over the states. My avatar is my Superduty.
