Hi, I am a new member from wet Washington State. I have been off roading (which is now called Overlanding) since the mid 1960's, yes that means I've been around a long, long time. The past sixteen years I have done a good deal of rock crawling also. This past summer I upgraded a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee for my overlanding rig. I would put a picture of my rig in that little box to the left of this post, but I don't know how to do that yet. In the mean time I look forward to meeting and overlanding with other members.
Burt, how lucky you are. Granite Falls area is amazing. I lived in Bellingham in the late 90's and my wife and I took every chance we could get (almost every weekend for a year and a half) to explore and get lost on the NEVER ENDING options of forest roads and jaw dropping moments around every turn.

Thanks for your reply Clark. Yes we do have alot of forest trials and opportunities to go exploring here. I really like central Washington, especially Manastash, Naches, and Rimrock Lake areas. But, I enjoy it all, it seems the older I get the more I enjoy it. As you can see I figured out how to get my picture in that little box, maybe this computer thing isn't all that bad, just kidding.

Gooood Morning Folks, I am Franco. New to OverlandBound, waiting for my member number. I call New Baltimore, MI home, and drive a 2014 Jeep Wrangler JKU Rubicon, special edition AMP'D and a RAM, that pulls my 34' THOR travel trailer. I have hit Drummond Island trails, and Silver Lake in Michigan. My JKU Squad, and Wolverine Wheelers are heading to "Jeep the Mac" next weekend. Hoping to have over 500 Jeeps cross the Mighty Mac this year.

Hello. Just bought a 2006 Toyota Tacoma double cab SR5 and looking forward to getting into some serious overlanding. Been exploring the wilderness all my life and am looking forward to outfitting my new truck to take me even further. I'm in North Idaho surrounded by forests and mountains. Love to hunt, fish, hike, camp, etc. Anything that gets me outdoors.

I usally wheel in Disney Oklahoma which is awesome you should look it up on youtube. I am currently waiting on buying my membership. Hope to explore some trails with some of you! I am fairly new to overlanding.

I stumbled onto here through binge watching the Overland Bound Channel on you tube.
My name is Tony but since I was a kid my dad called me TDAWG so everyone else does and only my mom calls me Tony. lol I've 4Wheeling, hunting & camping. I never really noticed or realized that when you go wheeling through different states it's considered overland travel. My experience I would say novice because from watching Michael on the Overland Bound Channel there are many things to learn.
I drive a 1995 Chevy Tahoe have done a little basic mods but I'm finding out that they were more for looks than function. this a picture of the before after I bought it.IMG_0880.JPGIMG_1251.JPGthis is after I added the Baja Bar with 3 H.I.D lights, I had to customize a kit to mount those step rails, the roof rack is custom as well because I couldn't really find one I liked. but I am finding out the hard way that there isn't much out there for a 95 Chevy Tahoe. So I'm making everything slowly but surely.
