Thank you, Thread followed and heading off to make sure OB app is updated. Thank you for your continued work on this project!

Michael, is there a radius from the geolocation that you send the alert from that members will be notified? assuming it is only those that have selected 'helper' on their profile? does it also go to staff, i.e HQ, Directors and member reps? Thank you

Dan, Welcome to Overland Bound from Washington State. Enjoy your JK, we love our JKU (they are great behind motorhomes) lots of great people in this group, I am sure you will have no trouble meeting like minded folks.

JD, Welcome to Overland Bound from Washington State! Nice looking rig, and not a bad background either. Thanks for posting a great picture.

Used to explore in a Jeep CJ-5 long before anyone thought of calling overlanding. Just a soft top and none of the things available today like fridges, RTT or traction boards. Just stuffed what you could in the back and off you go. Back then it was just me and a dog. Fast forward to today and...

It's an Australian acronym used for emergency situations to ensure safety and proper application of aid, basically a expanded version of the North American ABC's (Airway/Breathing/Circulation) D = Danger, make the scene is safe before you approach (fire/down wires/active shooter etc) R =...

That's odd, I currently have two of the switch pros and both came with I believe four blank stickers to place over empty holes, there were two sheets of stickers one relating more to common stuff and the other was more side by side or racing things. can't remember which one the blanks were...

Camping and personal gear not to bad, problem comes in with having a need to be prepared for everything mentality ... so along come tools, spare parts, recovery gear, medic gear, communications, survival gear, portable underground bunker...lol find myself leaving out comfort items before the...

I was carrying (2)100 portable panels as I have a softshell RTT and a Jeep hood that is not conducive to mounting a flexible panel on, I figured out over a years time that I never needed to use the panels so now leave them at home unless going to be camping in one place for at least three days...

Shahn, see you all the time on the forums, and wonder how many times we have passed each other on the road, we so close and pass through Marysville all the time .. lol. Hope to catch up with you at an event or meetup one of these days.

Hello Kim & Mark, Awesome looking JKU! Can't imagine how you have room for gear with two big fur babies, we used to travel with just on German Shepard who managed to take up most of the back seat in our Jeeps..lol Michelle & I are located up on Camano Island just a bit north of you. I am the...

Daniel, Welcome to Overland Bound from Washington State! Nice looking Gladiator, the Hydro Blue seems to fit them well especially with the matching canopy. You have some nice country to explore down in your area, We have been wanting to get down that way for a while.

Jason, Welcome to Overland Bound from Washington State! What model and year Jeep did install your emblem on?

We enjoy 4 season exploring, and generally enjoy the winter trips the most. The only two things that we find a downside to winter travel is the number of trails available (at least at northern locations) is greatly reduced, and the short daylight hours where it is dark at 4pm. Otherwise less...

I went with an Ampere time Lifepo 100ah battery from Amazon which was on sale for around $250 normally $300. A lot less than the big name batteries but had some good reviews and saw one cut open on some Youtube channel and appeared to have decent construction. Has been in service for about a...

The tips mentioned above for handling a bite are good to follow, however finding ways to not get a bite in the first place is much higher on my list. I grew up hiking and exploring in rattlesnake friendly environments and was taught to wear high top style hiking boots with either gators or long...

We use the Garmin Explorer Inreach and have had no issues with it. We got the full size one over the mini for a couple of reasons, first was reports of better reception due to a larger antenna from some friends that have used both. The second is that the Explorer has a good built in base map...

Well on my person it would definitely be the result of a motorcycle crash, detached foot bone from leg bone, cracked three ribs and a thumb, north of $25k in repairs to the body, $500 to the bike which was still rideable. did not repeat the crash, but did get to repeat the surgery on the ankle...

I am in the switch pro camp, currently running one in my ram and my JK. The SPod is a great equivalent though. there are many good reason to go with a switch system. For me the main reason is only 1 cable comes into the cab of the vehicle (Unless you are switching items on the interior of...

Thomas & Kat, welcome to Overland Bound from Washington State. Great looking rig and thank you for your service!
