Hi all,

1. No picture yet - will update!
2. 2006 ToyotaTacoma Access Cab
3. Bellingham, WA
4. Spent time in Baja for 8 weeks - how I heard about this app. Traveled through Arizona and Utah overlanding for 6 weeks.

Honestly I’m mainly here because I’m looking for a high-rise canopy to fit my second gen Tacoma. Help a girl out! Thanks in advance
Hello Alaya, Welcome to Overland Bound.

I am the Northwest Director. @Gabriel Bozeman is your closest member representative.

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 Daniel and hope to see you on the trails.

Hi, I’m Matt and I live right outside of Rocky Mountain National Park in the mountains of Colorado. I’ve been wheelin for years but have recently (last couple years) been more interested in overlanding than rock crawling difficult short trails. My Overland rig is a 2018 Ram 2500 Powerwagon, added sliders and diff protection, 37” tires and upgraded the entire suspension and steering recently! Love this truck! I also have a heavily modified Jeep Rubicon but it barely gets used anymore ;)
In 2020 I was lucky enough to do 3 week long solo trips to Utah/Canyonlands. I also did a few trails passing thru Moab, Northern Arizona & the Mojave desert. 2020 was a lot of fun for me an I’ve got bigger plans in 2021 - weeklong Maze district trip in May just got reserved and my wife and I are planning a 3 week long trip in September (thinking Idaho and Montana up into the Canadian Rockies and back if they open the borders).
Look forward to meeting some of you and I’ve already been reading posts about trails I want to do in the future so I figured I better join!! Thanks for having me ;)

Hello everyone,
My name is Lyn and I am located in St. Louis, MO.
My current rig is a 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat FX4. Prior to this I had a 1999 Jeep Cherokee XJ (loved that rig, still miss it!)
Just getting into modern overlanding, but I have been an avid camper forever.

Hoping to learn some skills, figure out how I want to configure my truck, decide on the "to trailer or not to trailer" question (truck is also my DD), and have some fun!

Do you have a Roof Rack or Bed Rack to mount your awning / canopy? For a Rack Mount - I'm looking into Rhino-Rack's Done 1300 awning to mount on my Prinsu Roof Rack, I also picked up Slumberjack Roadhouse Awning.
Hi Mario,
No roof rack or bed rack - just looking for a canopy. I love the RLD canopies, and ARE has some neat ones like MX series. Those awnings look great!

Hello, My name is Alex! This is my 84 Yota Pickup. Its build primarily for trail and rock crawling. I have over 10 years of off roading, mostly Southern California area. Have done some overlanding over the San Bernardino Mountains, and Death Valley. Currently doing my homework for a long distance overlanding rig. Some choices, GX470(4gen 4Runner V8), LX470( 100 series Landcruiser), or 2nd gen Tundra. Look forward on getting some ideas from the forum..

Hi every one. Names Matt and I am a new guy here from Tacoma Washington.
I picked up a 2020 Jeep Gladiator and am planning on building it to travel the Pacific Northwest and see its true beauty. Then venture to the rest on the US.

Matt
Welcome to the Team Matt; Happy New Year from Upstate NY. Can't wait to see what you do with the Gladiator.

Welcome Matt! Let me know if you have any questions or need any questions answered. Once things warm up and dry out we will be doing some runs around the area - I am up North in Sammamish and am also building a 2020 Gladiator. Keep an eye on Rally Point for local events, probably slim pickings until spring.
