Hello Hello,

Rig: 1998 Jeep TJ 4.0 (Bought it when I was 18, had it for twenty years this month)
Location: Asheville, North Carolina

My experience with overlanding is limited. My wife and I have been backpackers and adventure travelers for years but rarely relied on our vehicles to do much of the work for us. This past summer we took a week long trip to Moab in our Jeep KL and decided it was time to put some real thought into overlanding as a way to see more of the world.
Building an overlanding trailer. Looking for ideas, rig advice, local members, local trails. Excited to join the community.

Welcome to OB, Jeremy! I'm glad to see another Ashevillan! Interested to see your trailer build, as I'm starting mine now, also. Best of luck!

I'm sure our paths will cross.

Cheers
Mike

Hello everyone!

My name is Nick and I'm from Salt Lake City, Utah.
I drive a 2006 Jeep TJU Rubicon which I've only had for a few months.
I have a couple years of minor off-road experience with a few different vehicles, but I plan to
fully immerse myself in the overlanding lifestyle now that I have the right steed for the job.
I am so excited to build my rig and get out on the trails, hopefully meeting at least a few of you along the way!

 

[Shawn Collins]

Welcome Nick. Good looking Jeep!!!!

My wife and I were always intrigued with the idea of overlanding. We finally found a good time in our lives to make the dream a reality.
Looking forward to making new friends and new experiences.

Welcome to OB and the East Region!
Keep an eye on the CALENDAR and the East Region Forum for upcoming events and conversations.

See you on the trail!

Hello to the Overland Bound community!

Kirk from Southwestern Ontario here. I decided last year I needed to get out an explore, so I started small - road trips to provincial parks. Dirt roads are about as wild as I have gotten in this my 2017 RAM 1500 (quad cab), but I'm looking to change that. Only mods so far are a set of Hankook Dynapro ATM-RF10 tires (still 33') and a dedicated 12V power line for an ARB fridge in the back seat. My wishlist includes an AEV lift with 35" tires and their front bumper, but my actual needs and wallet haven't quite caught up yet.

I'm into landscape photography (kiloxraysierra on Instagram), so having a vehicle I can use as a base camp when I get to an interesting location is my first goal. The ARB fridge was added this year and next year I'll be making a road trip to Montana to pickup a Go Fast Camper (hammock camping loses it's appeal after a few days).

I'm generally not a huge forum contributor, but this seems like a great community so perhaps that will spark a bit more activity.

Cheers!
