Welcome to OB. Mike from northern cali.

Hey everyone, new guy from the Central Valley California USA.

I’m new to overlanding, previous to this I tent camped or popup trailer camped at a single location for up to a week in the SoCal desert.

My current vehicle is a 2019 GMC Yukon Denali, I have swapped the factory 22” wheels and low profile Z rated tires for 18” wheels wrapped in 32” AT M/S tires, a Yakima EXO hitch cargo system, Yakima crossbars, and I have a FSR Evolution V2L RTT on order.

I have a full-size SUV because I have a family of seven and the Yukon is also my daily driver. In the mid future I plan on buying a travel trailer for full family adventures but for now it’ll just be me overlanding and possibly one or two others.

My buddies and I use CB radio for desert communication but I’m looking into GMRS, and have a call sign of WRWV937. HAM also looks interesting but seems daunting with everything you have to know.

I’m looking forward to meeting and learning. Thanks

Welcome to the crew!!!

FNG here from North Alabama. I found this forum while researching places to take my wife and kid overlanding in N AL, E TN, & N GA. I like the idea of being able to take my family camping away from the traditional campsites and all the people. To be able to pull my rig up to a little fishing hole and set up camp away from others would be heaven.

No experience overlanding yet, but I did grow up a farm kid doing more than my share of going off-road.

Hi..... looking forward to meeting new people and getting familiar with the OB1 app. We reside in Casa Grande Az. I have a 95 triple locked LC that needs some work, but hopefully I will be ready for a few outings. See you soon.

Welcome!

Hello all, new member EStokes here. Liking this app and still learning it, but digging in.

After a lifetime of tent camping and backpacking I’m transitioning to overlanding. After backpacking the CDT in 2021 with my son, I’ve decided to try a different style of camping.

On May 24th, 2022 my wife and I picked up our first overland trailer. It’s an OGT Off Grid Trailer Pando 2.0. Camped our way back from Edmonton, Canada to home in Angel Fire, NM after picking it up from the manufacturer.

Currently I’m hauling it around with a 2022 Honda Passport, it works, but I’ll probably be shopping for an additional rig in 2024.

In the past 10 months with the new trailer we’ve logged 35 nights of camping so far.

Looking forward to Overland Expo West 2023 in a few weeks. Got the tickets and camping with the OGT Pack.
