Greetings:

I am retiring in the next month and have been offroading for a few years. The plan is to explore the USA back country as much as possible and I am hoping this sight can give me location ideas and shared experiences in those areas.

Greetings from Riverside, California.
I am a complete newbie when it comes to overlanding.
I just got a rig and cant wait to take it out to the trails.

I’m driving a very nice 1999 ISUZU VehiCRoss, i have been getting it ready with some minor updates but i will need some guidence on the things that are necessary for overlanding and the ones that are not.

Looking forward to see you all out there and build some strong friendships along the way!

I’m Nick from the Erie, Pennsylvania area. I drive a 2012 Xterra Pro4X that I’m building myself on a single dad of 3 kids budget. (Baller status)

We try and get out nearly every chance we can. Even if it’s just a short jaunt to Allegheny National Forest for a night.

I’ve been in the off-road community in this area for nearly 20 years.

Everything on the rig I have built myself in my tiny attached garage.

Looking forward to meeting up with others and sharing my travels!
