I'm up the road in Glen Innes mate, after relocating back to the country from the nation's capital a few months back. Just starting to settle back into country life and am spending so much more time out exploring that I'm about to start sinking some money into making the old Colorado a bit more functional on these adventures. I've been subscribed to the OB YouTube channel for a long time but have only just got around to watching some of the content, and the principles that I watched being explained in a recent video really appealed, so here I am!
Marc you're not that far up the hwy then...yes OB is a great community for sure and no pressure to be total hardcore all the time. It does take sometime to set-up the rig but have fun doing it.

I drive a WJ/WG Jeep Grand Cherokee...a very capable 4by...yes I know we Jeepers here get quite a digging in Australia...but that's ok...It's a Jeep Thing!....hahaha!

There are a couple of OB fb group pages for NSW and QLD if you want to look...the QLD page is the busiest having quite a few get together camping events west of Gold Coast and Brisbane areas mostly...hopefully we'll catch up sometime!20180224_120755.jpeg

Thanks for the advice and encouragement Aussie! I promise no digging about the Jeep from me... I used to own a KK Cherokee and wished I never got rid of it! I'll catch you around mate.

Hello everyone,

I am Larry and I am from the Kansas City area and I drive a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk. Overlanding is new to me, looking for something new to get involved with after the passing of my wife. I look forward to learning from everyone and maybe meeting up with some of you in the future.

Thanks
Larry

Hello from Western NC (Asheville / Weaverville)! I'm Rob & have a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2. I have very limited off-road experience (Did Harmon Den a couple times but haven't tried Hurricane Creek yet) so hoping to get some with some of you folks on here! Would love to join any "meetups" in the area.

Mission Viejo, California. I drive a 2013 Jeep JKU Wrangler Rubicon. I have made a few minor mods, am a relative novice and am interested in exploration and overlanding. I am an experienced camper/backpacker and am looking to do more camping with the Jeep.
