Welcome from across the sound! Make sure you check out the local region (NorthWest) forums for events and meetups. Also might want to check the Rally Point system for events. I hope to make it back out to the Peninsula to explore more. Would you be interested?

Cheers!

Hi Gabe,

Might be fun sometime. I am a Pastor when not playing outdoors so I have a really tight schedule I am already booked until September Elk hunting! So not a lot of room but I appreciate the idea of it and maybe I will find some spot to do a trip or two. Just getting into it but I will keep it mind! Thanks for the warm welcome!

Hello! New Members here: Ed and Colleen. From NorCal, Galt area specifically (south Sacramento County). We have a 2017 TRD Offroad 4x4. We've been exploring and "overloading" for almost 2 years now. Excited to be part of this community. We also recently purchased a Jumping Jack Blackout Edition pop up tent trailer so we're looking forward to even more adventures with it.

Hi everyone. Currently in Salt Lake City, but may be moving south soon. I drive a 2002 Isuzu Rodeo LS. I got it for the snow early last year and soon discovered that 4wd is awesome and has so much potential! I'm slowly building up the rig.
Only a few weekend adventures/day trips under my belt, but I'm excited to be a part of this community and am looking forward to many more adventures to come!

Hello, new member from Nevada City, California.

I'd say I am somewhere in the middle of noob and expert in overlanding. I have done quite a bit of vehicle based camping throughout my life and want to do more and more the older I get. I spend alot of time looking at maps and youtube to get ideas of great places to go. That's where I ran accross Overland Bound and after watching countless videos decided I should probably suck it up and become a member.

I drive a 2002 Toyota Land Cruiser. Nearly bone stock with the exception of 285/75/65 BFG KO2's, Cruisin Off Road Rock Sliders , and SPC Heavy Duty Lower Links. Picture is before the sliders.

Hello All - new member from WNC,

Bought a membership at Overland Expo East two years ago and just recently got a rig to start building up. I purchased a 1998 LX470 locally. I rolled to odometer over to 270K last weekend. It needs a fair amount of work so it will be a slow build. It's got some leaks. Body roll is pretty bad. I fixed the suspension (AHC) last weekend. Needs new tires, etc, etc, etc. Like I said, it will take awhile. Looking forward to meeting some of you in the Upstate SC/WNC area soon.
