Hi all, I'm glad to have found this group. I'm a ham that likes to explore and drive up mountains with my radio gear in the Pacific Northwest.
Location: Washington State
Rig: 2011 Toyota 4Runner
Experience: Late-bloomer 4-wheeler, got my first 4wd ten years ago, age 56.
Currently in the process of replacing it with something bigger, Sprinter 4x4 van.

Greetings from Barry

Hi Everyone, I’m Andrew in Southern California.

I have a 2016 Toyota Tacoma with just a few off-road modifications.

I am relatively new to Overlanding, but have enjoyed the trips I’ve been on recently. I’m fairly experienced in camping and other outdoor adventures, and the vehicle part has been a fun add-on.

Thanks for having me as part of the community!

1) Picture! View attachment 195054
2) Location: Santa Fe NM
3) Rig: 2018 Ram Power Wagon
4) Overlanding Experience Background: Exsperienced.

Name is Sonny and I've spent many years Adventure Touring on big BMW GS's, before the term Overlanding ever became mainstream. I also use to throw my camping gear in my truck and head out into the forest way before I starting ADV'ing on bikes. I wanted to build an OL rig with my Chevy 1500, but decided to go with the Power Wagon instead. Had a hard time convincing my wife, but now she is completely on board! Hoping to hook up with some like minded peeps here in the southern rockies.

Hi all,
I'm Lance but my friends call me Ledet. I have done mostly hiking and motorcycle camping in the past with a luv for the outdoors. I am from the south east tip of Louisiana about 60 miles from the Gulf. I just bought a 2021 TRD 4Runner that I had outfitted with a stage 2 Icon suspension, Method wheels -12, and smittybilt RTT. My next purchase will be new bumpers with winch set up. Glad to be on board with a large group of people with the same interest in mind. My plans are to do more overlanding in primitive areas.View attachment 195015 View attachment 195014

Barry, Hello and welcome to Overland Bound.
@Kent R stole my thunder lol. Any way your closest member representative is @Ubiety.

We have an unofficial “Overland Bound” Friday Night Ham Net every Friday night at 5:30 pm Pacific. For more information please check out
US West - Ham Radio Weekly NET and Friday Night HAM Radio NET
@12poundtest and the rest of the crew are looking for more people to participate in the weekly Net, as well as possibly several more members willing to help out with Net control.

As a fellow ham I think you would be interested in the Communications Forums. Are you involved in SOTA and/or POTA?

Once again welcome, and I look forward to seeing you on the trails and hearing from you on the air. I’m on 3.955.000 LSB every Sunday from 1700-18:30 while participating in the Union County ARES Net. And the. I can also be found rag chewing throughout the week on 3.874 AM or 3.900 LSB.
