Hi,
I'm Stu, a new member in Arvada, CO. I drive a basically stock 2018 Jeep Wrangler JKUR and have been exploring every backroad I can find for years. I met some forum members at Overland Expo Mountain West last weekend and am excited to join the fun!

Cheers and see you on the trail!

Hello Ryan, Welcome to Overland Bound.
I am the Northwest Director. @Sandpoint Steve is your closest member representative.
To help navigate through the forums, here are some links that can be filtered by “Region” prefix. We are in the Overland Bound North America US Northwest Region (US Northwest for short).
Overland Bound Meetups- is where all member generated rally points are posted in forum format for discussion of Rally Point and other types of Meetups. A meetup can be as simple as a group getting together for coffee, a trail ride, or a full in expedition with other Overland Bound Members.
Overland Bound Trip Planning- is a great place to talk about planning a trip wether by your self or as a group.
Overland Bound Routs: Downloadable- is exactly what it sounds like. Search, or share your GPX files here with a description of the route and POIs.
Share your Overland Routes- is similar time the downloadable posted above, but doesn’t require you to share the actual GPX file.
Overland Bound By Region < North America < US Northwest- is where you can find regional members discussing local events, Overland News, and general topics. It’s a great recourse to mete others in the regions.
Member Maps- a great trip planning tool. It can also be used to send out messages to members near your location, or a location you plan to visit.
Rally Point- a tool used to creat Meetups or send out an SOS.
Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask myself or your member representative team. Again welcome and hope to see you on the trails.

Nick here, just joined and went overlanding for the first time this weekend.

I currently live in the Olympia, WA area but am in the military so that changes pretty often.

My rig is a 2010 Toyota Tundra DC “Rock Warrior”, Xtrusion Overland Rack and Overland Vehicle Systems Nomadic Tent.

As far as experience goes, I’d consider myself a beginner. I’ve spent a lot of time on forest roads and have done some off-roading but have never done anything too challenging.

Looking forward to being part of the community!

Hello everyone my name is Sam Henderson. I’m currently living on the road full time in my Hive Campers trailer being pulled by my 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Plans are always changing but right now I’m planning on being in Baja for all of November. Been overlanding for the last 13 years. I was just at Overland Expo mountain and will be at Overland Expo Flagstaff. Met a bunch of awesome members who convinced me to join while at Expo. Super stoked to be part of an awesome community!

Hello All!

We're excited to have just joined the Overland Bound community. We've been watching the YouTube channel for over a year now and finally joined to be a part of what sounds like an amazing community. We've done a bunch of car camping over the years but would consider ourselves beginners when it comes to overlanding and really getting off-road and exploring the roads less traveled. We have a 2021 Subaru Ascent with plans to build it out but in the meantime have been getting on some easy trails to get a feel for what it can do in stock form. We're in the Los Angeles area and looking forward to connecting with others in the OB community to learn and share what we can.

Hi All, my name is Scott. I live in Scottsdale, AZ with my wife and 2 little girls (3 and 5). We love to go and explore and looking to start camping. I have been slowly working on building out my Toyota LC200. Looking forward to potentially enjoying some time outdoors with everyone. Cheers

Hey y'all! I'm excited to join this forum and learn as much as I can about overlanding. I'm currently residing in Mississippi.
I drive a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek with a few mods.
I have done my share of traversing through mud, ruts, rocks, sand, and rivers. Still fairly new to the overland game but hoping to change that!
