Hello, Joe and family. What are some of your favorite spots in the SW? I am hoping to take my family on a trip from central Kansas to El Paso, TX this year. Last trip we drove straight through. This time I want to enjoy to country side a little more.
Robert, wow that will be an awesome road trip. Do y’all plan to shoot straight south out of central Kansas through OK and TX or start west to CO and then meander south through NM? our last adventure through CO and NM we enjoyed the amazing views of the Rocky Mountains to the west as we traveled I25 south which allowed us to branch off at several points and see some amazing off the main road sights and camp. The entire path that direction of smaller and off road areas are plentiful and a blast to wander along through if time and travel permits at least in my opinion. beautiful family experiences are in store for y’all no matter which road or trail you travel there and back! Very excited for y’all. Explore, Adventure, Together!!

Safe Travels,
Joe Wolf

Hi everyone, we have been overlanding for quite a few years(since 2012). But, we were truly novices in the beginning. We had a 2014 RAm 1500 with a 24ft trailer at first. We didn't think we would like roughing it out in the real outdoors :) To our surprise, probably after our 2 trip we decide to sell the trailer and just camp out with our truck. No special equipment, we would just load up the truck with as much as possible and go for 2-3 days.
As time went on and we got more serious about it. We purchased our first tent and rigged our Ram for a decent overlanding setup. After just over a year and a half we sold our truck. We replaced it with a newer RAM 1500 and we just finished building our dedicated overland trailer. We will become supporters in the next month and we hope to see out in the trails. Cheers

The original 2014 RAM 1500 it all started here.

Hello all,
Just joined up today but have been camping/backpacking for years.
Currently working on my XJ to get some cool rooftop gear and redundant power, hoping to meet some groups/find some areas to go out and camp.
I live in Mesa/Phoenix, Az down by the salt, often head North.
Got linked here due to the heat exchanger/shower thread and going to give that a shot!

Forum looks awesome.
Hello Exarch,

Welcome to the community. Best of luck on your build and have some great overlanding adventures!

Hi you all, great to have found this forum! We are Miriam & Axel, a couple from Germany. We've been overlanding in Botswana & Namibia for a month a few years ago and plain loved it. Then we went to Australia for three months overlanding with a roof top tend all through western Australia. Now we're planning a four months overlanding trip to South Africa, Botswana and Mozambique. On YouTube we came across "Get out go", and he recommenden this forum, so here we are ;-)
Hello Miriam+Axel,

Welcome to the community! Looking forward to seeing more of your pictures from your adventures!

We took the path West last time, because it was a quick 4 day trip. This time I am thinking we might head out one way and come back the other. I have driven over the Arbuckle Mountians a number of times and have wondered if there are any neat areas to explore there.
