I'm located about 20 minutes outside of Charlotte in Fort Mill, SC. I haven't been able to do much but I'm looking into finding some new spots to expand on my horizons a bit. Here's the most recent picture of my rig, even though a full independent suspension isn't the best, she does her work nicely

Welcome I'm over in kings mountain Nc. IFS is very capable off-road and works just fine for the overland style exploration you just have to know the limitations of your rig. Hope to see you at one of the meet ups or one of the overland events this year

Hey guys,
New here as well. I'm down in York so not too far from some of you. Did some rock crawling back in the day but haven't been off-road in a while. Just bought a 4runner so I can't wait to explore the area.

Charlotte here, driving a lifted Jeep on 33s. I do a lot of backpacking and some overlanding. Looking forward to meeting others.

I have noticed there are a couple state specific OB chapters on Facebook. Is there a NC one already? If not, I'd like to start one. I was thinking about it on the way to work and I am able and willing to get something going. Again, assuming there isn't one already.

I have access to a big gravel parking lot that could serve as a meet up spot that is easily accessible for members around and outside of Charlotte for get togethers. (less than a mile from were I-485 & Highway 74 intersect) It's also pretty close to upstate SC as well.

If there is a thread already about this feel free to point me in that direction.

Thanks,
John

Also I drive this Trooper and this Cooper so if you see me around give me a honk and wave.
If it's a dude driving it's me, if it's a terrified looking girl that's my wife lol

You talking about a few hours or an all day thing with a destination? Can definitely meet up, grab a beer or something like that. If we're headed somewhere need to rearrange some things. Kids and there activities dominate certain weekends.
