I'd say I have an intermediate level of experience with offroading and overlanding.

Mostly hiking and camping and the truck gets me there.

Hello , Welcome to Overland Bound.
I am the Northwest Director. @Ubiety 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 and hope to see you on the trails.

Hello! I am "PookyHobbes". After recently moving back to Germany, I am now looking for a new adventure. I already went on a few day trips with members of Overland Bound and had a great time! Unfortunately, I do not have my own car yet, but I am looking for a Subaru Forester or a Jeep Cherokee. Advice is always welcomed as I am a total newbie at overlanding. :)

Hi everyone, I'm a newbee to Overlanding...infact...still in the process of the build of my 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 (150,000 miles). I'm trying to get the suspension upgraded but CJC is booked until August already. I have some hunting plans already set up for the fall. Was hoping to get my rig set up by then. if anyone has any ideas let me know. I've attached a photo of the rigs current state and set up. lol I know, I've watching videos of how fast you guys get camp set up. This camp did not take less than a minute to set up or tear down. lol

Hi Roy and welcome to Overland Bound!

Good morning folks! New to the forum and overlanding but not new to camping, 4 wheeling or adventure. Born and raised in FL but been around Columbus, OH for almost 10 years. I am in the oil & gas engineering business and travel around the country most every week.

I have a 15 day trip to some Montana Forest Service cabins via a rental Jeep Rubicon scheduled for June.

Hi Steve,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

Enjoy your trip to Montana.

Morning y'all!! New to the forum and overlanding (only been once with a rental).
Vehicle: 2014 1500 Ram Ecodiesel (not currently setup for overlanding, working on that part as we speak....)
Location: Currently stationed on Oahu - moving to Clearwater FL this summer.

I'm using my summer move to overland across the country with my 8 year old daughter, stopping at multiple places along the way during our 2-3 week trip.

I have seen Michael's youtube channel (as well as a few others) and been researching the best gear for my travels and budget.

Current wants (by order of need/want): Rack, Tent, Awning, Bed drawers (thinking about building this one), Electrical setup, Fridge... can't think of much more right now. Thanks for letting me join on this adventure with everyone!

Hi Evan and welcome to Overland Bound!

That is a nice looking rig!

Hello, I'm new to this forum, but not new to what is now known as "overlanding". I'm building an 89 Ford Bronco II, It's my 2nd. The first has more than 400,000 miles and has taken me all over the United States, as well as served as a tow and work vehicle. Admirably...I must add.
The new project will include a 5.0 upgrade, 4R70W trans, Dana 20 xnfer case, along with the D35/8.8 combo I used on the old truck. Along with a whole pile of upgrades to every system on the truck.
I'll be using this for everything from local runs, to towing my boat on fishing trips, and traveling/camping with my wife.
I'm most interested to know how the overlanding community has solved some of the challenges of getting off road and getting home safely.

Hi Charles and welcome to Overland Bound!

Wow, that sounds like a nice Bronco built! Please share some pictures if you like.

Greetings,
Bjoern

Hi Damaris,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

Check out the MidEurope Rally Points if you like and see what´s coming up next. Would be great to see you on the trails out here.

We have also a virtual campfire across Europe every 2nd week. You will find that in the Rally Points also.

If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me - always happy to help other overlanders.

Cheers, Björn
