First off I am very sorry that I missed this question, normally I check this page every day.
Overland Bound is a web based program just like all the other navigation and community programs out there. In order to use any part of the app when off grid you will need a ground cell signal or...
Active satellite connection just means the device has to be able to reach the satellites. It won’t work in a steel building and I doubt it would work in the basement of a building. No subscription other than the inReach subscription.
Regarding the new phones, the ability to press the SOS button...
It really depends on how one likes to work....
For me, I discovered that I like logging my journeys and where I hike or walk. The 67i is really ideal for that....
Also my phone battery doesn't last long, around 6 hours while the Garmin's: my watch (Tactix 7 Pro) and 67i will last at least a...
I remember I also had some issue with my recordings done with the 67i. Basically my whole Scotland trip.....
There was a way I sorted this by converting the route.... I think it was by clicking "save a copy" or was it via "share"? - or did I go into the "Connect" app then save the route to "My...

Hi all,
I've been using a Garmin 67i (inReach) device for a while though I've never activated the inReach part as I have cell connection everywhere.... the idea behind it was to use it off-grid for planned places and since recently I started taking an interest in overlanding it just really...
Hi all,
not sure if someone has already popped this up but here's a video on the new 2025 Toyota 4Runner Trailhunter in its natural element:
I have seen on the 4runner6g website that there is a new lift kit for a more basic spec model (TRD Offroad was it?) which features 35" tires.
This...
...and the A46, though it looks like there is a lot of road works and police and probably accidents right now.
I used the satellite navigationapp Waze to get me to my destinations. Luckily I had cell reception everywhere so that wasn't a problem though I do have a Garmin GPSMAP 67i (Inreach)...
Hi,
I have just signed up and wanted to say hello. I will need to take some time to figure out profile picture and other customizations which I will do shortly.
Reading through the "New Members Start Here" part I see a posting from Lifestyle Overland.... is that Kevin from the LO Youtube...
Hello. This would be my first post after my newbie introduction I made earlier today. I’m new to overlanding and trying to find out what “tool” to use to find places to go… as in navigation aids, specifically of the electronic variety. I’m from Canada but most of my adventures will be in the US...
Agreed, im very familiar with what3 words. Use it for work daily.
In the notes under location there is a what3words location for the meetup.
Also the meetup is the 21st rather than tomorrow.
It looks like I won't be able to make it tomorrow. However, I recommend the What 3 Words app for off-road navigation. It uses three square meter blocks for your location rather than street-addressing. You can spit on your destination if you navigate to the what3words block. It has free web...

roots66,
Hello.
I wanted to ask if you know of any other North Texas meetup groups here?
I could make it to the North Central group but it’s almost a 4hr drive. I’m about 45-60 minutes north of the Big D.
