Good afternoon everyone! Just joined the forums to learn about new territories to explore and learn life hacks with everything out doors! I’ve browsed the forums for a while now but finally decided to join! I have a custom built 5x8 trailer I built to use camping and setup my “base” for when we’re out and about. I’ve attached a couple pictures just to show off my home made setup.View attachment 159219

Hi All! I finally pulled the trigger on getting my OB membership! I bought my 1992 Toyota Land Cruiser nearly 5 years ago to be my hunting/fishing/family adventure vehicle, and it's been a work in progress ever since. This was two years ago from our first family camping trip as a family of 5. We've gone on many more since then, but not many great pics of the rig.

Hello, Mike here from Redwood City, Ca.

‘17 Lexus GX-not built out, but things are happening

Experience: yes, no, kind of,

50’s retiree, I’ve always been a fan of exploring and being outdoors hiking, biking, backpacking. I have some additional time since retiring. I’m not 100% sure what I’m looking for yet re overlanding. I think OB can help, and I can possibly help others in return.
