Scott Perkins
I've been bombing down remote roads since I was 16 in whatever vehicle would carry me and sleeping in the back at trailheads and pull-offs and the parking lots of ski resorts because that's how you got to the more remote spots and made backpacking/climbing/ski trips affordable when you're a poor college student. At some point, I circled back because that uncomplicated mode of travel still feels 'right' but I'm not a college kid anymore, so my aching bones demand a more comfortable sleeping arrangement... cue searches for "Overlanding".
When my wife and I moved from Seattle/Tacoma area to southern Oregon, we bought a used 4Runner for exploring the country. I found Overland Bound because I watched some of Michael's videos on the YouTubes and I liked the sound of his founding principles, which echoed what I used to teach beginning backpackers back when I was doing that for a living. My 4Runner was stolen, so I was out of circulation for awhile, but I'm back in Washington and back in a new Taco, and eyeing the horizon.
