Hello, I am Steve. I enjoy outdoor adventures with my 12yo son. We are located in the SFBay area, California, and get all over the state. My rig is a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2 Bison which is slowly becoming more capable. Recently we got a RTT and I'm adding a winch next. I would say that we are newish with some experience. I look forward to getting to know you.
Hey Steve, the Bison is a great truck! I am the Bay Area member rep and I can help connect you to meet ups that are happening near you.

Hi Folks,

I am new to the overlanding community and excited to learn more! I just picked up a '94 Toyota Land Cruiser and am excited about making it my own.

Based out in the PNW!
Hello , Welcome to Overland Bound.
I am the Northwest Director. The Washington Member Representatives are @jcgraves3 for Vancouver/PDX, @Ubiety is in the Greater Seattle Area, @Gabriel Bozeman is in the Puget Sound, @PNW EXPLR is Southeast Washington, and @Sandpoint Steve is Northwest Washington and Northern Idaho.
To help navigate through the forums, here are some links that can be filtered by “Region” prefix. We are in the Overland Bound North America US Northwest Region (US Northwest for short).
Overland Bound Meetups- is where all member generated rally points are posted in forum format for discussion of Rally Point and other types of Meetups. A meetup can be as simple as a group getting together for coffee, a trail ride, or a full in expedition with other Overland Bound Members.
Overland Bound Trip Planning- is a great place to talk about planning a trip wether by your self or as a group.
Overland Bound Routs: Downloadable- is exactly what it sounds like. Search, or share your GPX files here with a description of the route and POIs.
Share your Overland Routes- is similar time the downloadable posted above, but doesn’t require you to share the actual GPX file.
Overland Bound By Region < North America < US Northwest- is where you can find regional members discussing local events, Overland News, and general topics. It’s a great recourse to mete others in the regions.
Member Maps- a great trip planning tool. It can also be used to send out messages to members near your location, or a location you plan to visit.
Rally Point- a tool used to creat Meetups or send out an SOS.
Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask myself or your member representative team. Again welcome and hope to see you on the trails.

Hi all, I am new to Overlanding and became interested in Overlanding after watching YouTube.

Location: Where George Washington Crossed the Delaware River.
Rig: 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon
Experience: Tent camping and YouTube :)

I don't have an updated pic yet, but since this picture, I have added a Rhino Pioneer Platform and hopefully very soon to come will be a rooftop tent, 2.5 AEV Lift, and 35" tires.
