Hello, I just barely got this app and it seems legitimate. I was looking at some of the trails and started making plans for the week. My wife don’t like the off-road so I mainly go by myself. And since I haven’t really been anywhere I just go to clieghorn and some local trails . But I’m look to go on a long session like morning to next morning.

Hi, I’m Zac. Currently stationed in Southern Maryland. Have been car camping to hunt for a couple years now but want to get into it more not just for hunting. Want to get the family and kids outside more. I’ve got a 2003 Honda CRV AWD. I know it’s nothing fancy but it’s been fun for me so far and plan to run it until it dies. Just hit 245k with no signs of stopping, it’s been a great little vehicle. Looking forward to learning as much as possible here.

New to the overland and off-roading community. My wife and I have been backpacking for 30+ yrs and love the outdoors and camping. Getting to the age where multi-day backpacking is more difficult so we purchased a 4Runner ORP last year and love it. Took our 1st overlanding/off-road trip this year to National Parks in TX, NM and southern CO. Definitely planning more trips out West especially the CDT.
We currently live in south-central Michigan (originally from CA) and looking for recommendations in MI. We have camped through out MI, but no experience with overlanding here.
Hello Greg, welcome to the OB family.

Hey All! Ben here from Tacoma, WA. My rig is a 1990 Toyota Pickup. My wife named her Greta. I am currently attempting to re-gear the differentials, add a lift and 33s. Not a project to take lightly. I typically wheel around Evans Creek near Rainier, Elbe hills and Tahuya. I would love to complete the entire WABDR someday. For now I stay local. My offroad experience is decent but I am in no way an expert.
I am glad to finally be a member.

Hello Everyone!

I’m Will and I’m from Northern Virginia. I drive a 2007 Toyota Sequoia with a handful of basic mods (level, lights, cosmetic). I’m new to overlanding and have yet to really venture out there but I’m hoping to make camp in the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests this summer.
Hello Will, welcome to the OB family.
