Hi all this is Dirttraveler. I joined a couple weeks back. I went to my local meetup last Saturday. It was great to see and meet so many nice people there. I don’t have “overland experience”. I have done plenty of hunting and camping through my life.  In the next month I will become an empty Nester and I’m interested in doing a whole lot more vehicle camping and exploring. Im from the southern SF bay area. I drive a 2013 Jeep JK that I have set up for sleeping inside. My Jeep has mostly been used to go to the family ranch and hunt and do some off-roading.
Welcome to Overland Bound Steve
A great local contact is @Wandering_Scotty and @TrailHawkGuy, I believe you might have met Wandering Scotty at the South Bay meetup. There is another meet up just to the North of you in Livermore that is also very active.

Hey y'all. I'm Mike from north phoenix. I was building a 19 Tacoma OR until i went to expo this year and drank the 80 series koolaid. I found a well maintained 96 FZJ80, factory locked and only 213K. I am in the process of getting it baselined and getting out to the mountains. I have been using the app for sometime, making routes and such. I've been stalking the forums for awhile and figured its time to say HI.
