I'm also game! October makes sense at this point given the fires all over but I'm definitely in once forest fuel conditions are favorable for recreational activity. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

National forests are still game for dispersed camping. You can pretty much pick any NF road and find a spot - granted some are better than others - which leads me to my next question... Where approximately are you looking to stop on your way up? Southern Oregon (Brookings/Coos Bay), Central...

Hey fellow Overlanders - thrilled to have found this group and looking forward to making the world a little smaller by connecting with like-minded adventurers! I live in the Pacific Northwest and am piecing together my 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk for Overland duty. I'm relatively...

Also from the PNW PDX area. We may run into each other out on the trail - I'll keep an eye out for your rig!
