When you become an Overland Bound Member with membership number, you get access to the OB Members Map . This allows you to see what others in your area or an area you're visiting, see trails, mechanics, camping spots and much more! Our map is ever growing with member inputs.

Some of the Colors and Symbols:

1. Gold - OB Member
2. Black - Forum user, not OB member yet
3. Red Badge - Rally Point event
4. Purple Badge - Mechanic
5. Jeep - Trail & Info
6. Feather - SVRA
7. Tent - Camping Spot
And many others....



There are a few steps to gaining access:
  • You MUST be an OB Member (have membership number) and have your forum account upgraded to "Member" (you will have a gold banner in your forum profile card that says "Member".
  • If you are not a member with a number, Go here: OB Member, then contact us to upgrade your forum account.
  • You can now access the Member Map!
  • In your user drop down menu, edit "Personal Details".

  • Edit "Map Location" - This is your location on the member map.

  • Also edit "Host and "Helper" to indicate if you are available for members to stay, or call you for assistance!
PLEASE NOTE: The Member Map updates once a day at Midnight Pacific time. When you add yourself or make any changes to your location, please wait until after that time to see your changes.
any way to speed up map loading ?

Hey there - when you add your location to your member profile, you are automaticaally added to the map. I see your location was set to "mn" which does not resolve to a known location. MN, USA does however, so I have changed your location to that. You should be all set. Your local Director is @Mike W

Let me know if @Kent R or I can help further! Kent is our grand poohba Executive Regional Director overseeing all regions.

Hey there, I added your location and it did not show up right away. It may be that a back-end process takes some some to update, but I am following up with out developers to be sure.

I would like to update mine.

My emblem number is: 20973. Just the number I was hoping for. I wore that number in high school baseball. Haha!!

For some reason, I am unable to place my location or see the member's location on the map. Can anyone assist me in adding my location to the member map?

I like the idea of this but for the life of me I have not been able to get the map to ever load. I just get the spinning circle and that's it. I can get it to load on my phone which is old as can be but not on my somewhat new updated desktop.
