Welcome Doug and Tracie ,
I am the Northwest Regional Director for Overland Bound. @Big G is your closest Member Representative.

Due to “Social Distancing” and “Shelter In Place” practices during the COVID-19 Pandemic, we have temporarily postponed group meetups, trail rides, and Campouts. Instead the Northwest Member Rep Team has incorporated weekly conference calls each Sunday at 7:30 PM PST (8:30) Mountain Time). A full list with scheduling can be found at Sunday Night Regional Conference Call

Welcome once again
Stay well, stay safe

Doug and Trace as Mike Rose said I am probably the closest Regional Member Representative to you even though you are in Redmond and I am In Grants Pass. As the Southern Oregon rep I am trying to build our group dynamic as it has been pretty much stagnant until we met in February. We will start having meet ups again soon and you should receive an email from me when we are planning to get together again. If you have any questions feel free to contact me any time. I would love to help you become a part of our community in any way that I am able.

Hello Overland Bound folks!


Steve here, new member as of today, and glad to join.
Southern MD area, and still pretty new to the area.
I have a Tacoma sport (some pics included)
No actual overlanding experience, plenty of off road experience but it’s been awhile and looking to get back into it.

Glad to be here and look forward to meeting some local overlanders!

Hi all, Stumbled on Overland Bound on Youtube thought they were just another blogger until I caught the Last livestream. Checked it out and joined.
