I became an OB 23934 member on June1, 2020. New to this group, but have been four wheeling and camping form a few short years. Looking to retire from work soon, to Overland alot more. I have a 2019 Jeep Sahara with a 2 1/2 inch lift, run 33 inch tires, winch and steel bumper. I use a small 11 foot camper with a hatchback for kitchen space similar to a teardrop. Looking forward to meeting many of you at some point in time on a trail. Planning a trip in August to Colorado and will call on those of you in the area for assistance and possible meetup. Nice to be a part of something bigger than local clubs.

Welcome from Central Texas. I was actually just up your way a week ago picking my daughter up for the summer. We spent some time exploring Shawnee National Forest and had a great time!

thank you so much for the information. I have made contact with the Midwest Overland on FB, so hopefully I can catch a group trip. I have also looked at many of the online courses you recommended to familiarize myself with guiding principles.
