My name is gahlen. I live in thurston area of Springfield.
Used to have an 01 jeep grand cherokee and have now moved on to a 2003 lexus gx470 as my overland rig. Would love to meet up with some local guys for some camp trips and trail runs00i0i_lrZjcKnWijU_1200x900.jpegScreenshot_20181213-224521_Instagram.jpeg

Welcome Gahlen (@GJ14)! There have been a number of new members in the mid and South Western side of Oregon lately, so hopefully someone will put together a meetup. Maybe a meetup somewhere along 126 will draw members from Bend as well. Even if that doesn't happen right away, there are already a number of members from South Washington and North Oregon (Portland) who are getting together just about monthly, so it might be worth the drive North for you. There is also a group from the Salem area that has gotten together on Facebook to plan [link]. The best way to find out what is going on is to check out the Rally Point system [link] and to watch this section of the forum for posts from others in the area. Of course, there are also the larger events that draw overlanders from all around, like the NW Overland Rally in Plain, WA [link].

I look forward to seeing you out there! If you need anything, feel free to hit me up on the forums: @Jedi.

Welcome from Rogue River Oregon. I am new to the community as well. I have talked to a few others locally and we were possibly doing something after the holidays towards the Bend area to play in the snow. Although I procrastinate a lot because of a busy schedule so there's that...:)

Welcome GJ14, I am from the Eugene/Springfield area as well. You may have seen my Excursion around the area. Always willing to learn a new route or share my own with a OB member. upload_2019-1-26_11-5-54.png
While we may be too heavy and long for some of the jeep billy goat trails around the state, there has not been a whole lot of places that we have set out for that we haven't been able to get into.

Welcome Alexia,

I am the Northwest Regional Director for Overland Bound. @Munga Brown @Big G are your closest Member Representatives.

Due to “Social Distancing” and “Shelter In Place” practices during the COVID-19 Pandemic, we have temporarily postponed group meetups, trail rides, and Campouts. Instead the Northwest Member Rep Team has incorporated weekly conference calls each Sunday at 7:30 PM PST (8:30) Mountain Time). A full list with scheduling can be found at Sunday Night Regional Conference Call

Welcome once again Alexia.

Stay well, stay safe

Mike Rose
NW Director
