Thanks Mike,

I'm still dealing with Map issues on desktop and iOS at the moment - I have emailed support and hope to get it sorted soon so that I can use these functions.

Cheers!

Hey All! New here and new-ish to California. Previously I was big into the rock crawling scene but always had more fun with destination trips and camping. I am currently using my 1998 Silverado as my overlanding rig until I finish building my more dedicated 1974 Plymouth Trailduster with new tech. I live just minutes from the Sierra Nevada mountains and love the idea of being to explore the trails and dispersed camping.

Look forward to getting started with the new hobby!

Anyone up in the Pioneer area, in amador county. I have a place up there and wanted to do a little exploring off road. I’ve heard tiger creek rd by the pg&e power plant , up a little road, and it can be driven to bear river reservoir.

Hi All: My name is Stephen and I am located in Toronto, ON.

I recently bought a 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road. I have not had an opportunity to add any mods, but look forward to building it up.

I have done a fair bit of driving and camping. My first major overland experience was a self drive that I did through South Africa, Botswana, Zambia and Zimbabwe with a rented Ford Ranger with roof top tent.

I look forward to meeting and learning from others.

New member here, just outside of Houston. Currently in the planning stage in building my 2015 Ram 1500. Overlanding experience has been novice trails/dirt roads in Colorado and New Mexico. Grew up camping so looking forward to branch out to more remote campsites.
