Hello all,
my name is Guy and I live in Vancouver BC. I have been camping my whole life mostly in southern BC from the island to the rockies, and have previously been an off roader with a 2008 Xterra Offroad Edition. Currently I drive a 1999 Honda CR-V.

Looking forward to giving and receiving tips on making the experience a load of fun.
Hello Guy, welcome to Overland Bound.

Hey Ya'll! New to the forums, but not new to "off-roading and camping", which I guess is what people called it before the marketing campaigns? :smile:

We are from Greenwood, Arkansas, but we have been all over.

Many years ago my wife and I bought a (I think it was a 2002?) LR Disco 2 and decked it all out and joined a Rover club, exploring all over. I will say that that segment seemed to be into the whole "overlanding" thing before the times. Everyone wanted a Camel Trophy rig! I think some even had some early rooftop tents back then. I miss the Disco but not the constant electrical problems.

Today we have a 2008 JKU Rubi on 37's, and a 2019 4Runner TRD Pro. The latter mainly carries the kids to various kid-related things, and the occasional pot hole or tall curb at the mall. We usually take the Jeep if there is any chance of things getting hairy.

We are excited to find new folks and families to go out into the woods with, as well as new ideas for places to check out or mods to make. Thanks for having us!

I saw that but, unfortunately, I am too far away for this trip. Looks like it's going to be fun!

I’m in Denver, basically. I’m down. It’s stock right now, but I’m ordering skids tomorrow. Sliders are next. Where are y’all at?
