Hey all,
I'm in the northwest valley near Surprise. It seems like the majority are in the east valley but I'm always game for a meet up for day trips or an overnight. Still waiting for my RTT to come in though. Happy wheeling!

Ken, you aren't too far away there are members in your area as well. I live in Tucson, maybe you can start a sub sub group of the Arizona area and have meet ups in your area.

At the moment, I'm an over-the-road driver, but, when I retire...

I'm currently in Charlotte, NC...but I'm aiming to move back to the Phoenix area at some point in 2020. I'm originally from Los Angeles, but lived in AZ (Queen Creek) from 2006-2012. I loved it other than the summers, but one thing that is drawing me back is I hardly did any camping or exploring while I lived there. And now that I've gotten into overlanding, the urge to move back is too great. I love exploring North Carolina and the surrounding states, and the forests are amazing...but there is nothing like the West when it comes to the outdoors. Hopefully I'll be able to connect with a few of you at the point that i finally move back out to AZ.

Being a full size Silverado...its also pretty tight at times on the trails here in NC, so looking forward to the vast open wilderness out West haha

New to AZ, but have been a long time "camp in the back of the truck" guy. Turns out they call it Overlanding. lol. Just came down in NOV from a summer trip to AK. Thought I'd say hello, and it was fun meeting a few folks at the last Gilbert monthly meetup at the BBQ joint. Heading out this weekend with the dog for a little overnight exploration 50 miles N of PHX or so. Happy travels.

I'm not finding a video but here are a couple of pics (I'm not sure now if anyone actually shot any video). The road gave way under him as he was moving through and this is the initial rigging to prevent the situation from potentially getting worse. The final set up involved side winching and the trucks in front pulling via extension line and snatch blocks up on the hill and the rest of us were able to navigate past this point after we got him out.

Thank God for friends!

So what you are saying is in NC you couldn't get the AZ desert pinstripes applied and now you want to move here just for that purpose. :tearsofjoy: Check out Tucson before you commit to Phoenix. I lived there for 14 years and now live in Tucson for the past year and I wish that I would have moved here 14 years ago.
