Hello, my name is Adam. I'm as green as it gets here. I'm in Minnesota where it seems there is not many trails for my truck.

Hi there Adam,

Hello, my name is Mark. I stumbled across this site, and it looks promising and I hoping to learn a lot.

Location: Northern/Central California
Rig: Subaru Outback Wilderness
Experience: Little to none with a cage, but some with the motorcycle (BMW 1150 GS - sold it for various reasons) and extensive backpacking experience.

Hi Mark,

Welcome to the OB community from us all in France.

Nice bike! Shame you had to sell it. Life can be unfair sometimes but it usually works out for the best in the long term.

Cheers Paul and Nicky

Hello Mark, welcome to the community, I am in Galt so if you are near here get in touch if you want to get out. Always looking to explore along Hwy 4, 88, 50 or 80. Just upgraded to a newer rig so I am itching to get out and see what it can do.

Hey Kent! Thanks so much for the heads up. I saw that! Unfortunately I won't be able to make this one, but I will definitely be attending at some point once my schedule allows. Have a great weekend and be safe out there!

Thanks for the add folks. I'm Brendan and I'm located in NYC and know zero about overlanding. Looking to find some good spots to drive to and camp out! I've got a tent and a sleeping bag...that's about it! But looking forward to learning what I need to get out and have some fun drives!

Welcome!
My advice would be, learn as much as you can on tread lightly (they have an overlanding specific section too), safety (both first aid and just being safe off road), and off-road etiquette. and link up with a few folks in your area for good places to go... then GO! your Raptor is an extremely capable rig out of the box (for a ford ) and will surprise you on what it's capable of before adding any "must haves".

Hi there Brendan,

Welcome to the OB community from us all in France

Enjoy what you have and don't get caught in the gear trap if possible, spend your money on travel.
