    Maps

    There are seriously too many options right now. Ioverlander is good, Gaia, trail ranger, and now the integrated maps into the overland bound app. Only problem I'm having so far with the overland bound app is limited items in Canada, however will need to build that up over time I guess. Good luck...

    Vancouver Island Trip

    Hi.. I think you are in for a good trip!! November has great storm watching along the west side of the island. Ferry wise, look for the black ball ferry out of Port Angeles. Not sure if it is really that much quicker, but the only option I'm aware of from the states right into downtown...

    Home built trailer

    That trailer looks great, thanks for posting the build. I'm just starting my build. Any chance you could let me know how/what you did to hook up those fox shocks. I really like the idea. Did you just weld a mount directly to the axel? Thanks for any help you can give. Brian.

    Overland Bound Founding Principles

    Hey Michael, Thanks for sharing your story, and setting all of this up. I can't say that I was ever much of a rockcrawler before, but I can totally get into overlanding. I really appreciate the principles that you have established, as I have seen many a group membership not have any, or adhere...
