My son got shot suffering from ptsd no more hunting for him but just going through the motions getting up in the early morning an not taken a guns but cameras got my son back, In the wild helps.thanks for all you do hugh suffolk Virginia. You are a great daddy.
I just got a 2002 suburban z71 4x4 my 2nd purchase was a roofnest condor xl, altough my oldest is only 7, these kids are growing up way too fast it important to me to keep my family together and we go out farther away from the crowds and explore
So true, I had a hard time in High School, nature then was my beautiful refuge then and still is. I like you description of the day you both are doing.
Wow! This video really hits home. This is more then just a gear review and rig show off. This is the psychological reason why many people choose the Overland the feeling of camping or living on the edge of earth. Having a overcome obstacles and challenges. The feeling of being disconnected from the real world, and taking a moment to pause life, and just focus on the present in front of you. This video really hits home and thank you so much for the time and the effort in the editing it’s an inspiration to see that it can be done
THank you for your wonderful videos and community. I have a feeling your daughter is going to leave most people in her high school in the dust - all the best to her!
Words of wisdom. Love the encouragement to disperse. That’s part of the adventure is finding those places - especially in the east where there’s so much private land. But those special places are out there if you look hard enough and prepare to go far enough.
Michael a superb video! thank you for the "personal" opening up and you are right as our society is getting rougher, all the more reason to "get away" and have quality time with friends and family....I love Overland Bound, a GREAT resource and community.
Michael. Dude. I was NOT expecting the personal angle in this video. I couldn't agree more about the benefits of reconnecting with nature. As the owner of several businesses, I am stressed out quite frequently, but whenever my wife and I can get away for several days into the "wild," all of that stress fades away. It's a very healing experience for us. Thx for sharing this with all of us!
Created an account just to leave my first comment on this video - as someone who knows the subject well, i was struck by your beautiful description of your daughter’s unique journey. Thank you for your vulnerability - she + your fans are not alone. John Muir likely had that same unique way of being & I agree: nature can be a wonderful salve for our cultural stress (school, work, etc.)!
Actually, what you guys are talking about overlanding is what behind the just action of overlanding, the purpose, the sparks on the way, the communication with the world( not just human beings but also the logic and the mindsetting), and i can't agree more that these things are right the overlanding which offer us, much more beyond the technics and the life while we are on overlanding. Bravo !
I lost my 12 year old daughter late last year, I've been taking her little sister on a lot more adventures to help heal that pain...... it doesn't fully feel fine, but, we keep going and going deeper each trip...... :)
So true places like Horsebend and Alstrom Point have been destroyed because of social media. Now they force you to pay for parking at Horseshoe and it’s a zoo there with tour buses going through. Glad I went a few years ago when it was empty. Point is go NOW since these places change so dramatically whether that’s natural or tourism.
Horseshoe bend is a stones throw from the pavement. It's nice, but extremely accessibly. I like to find epic locations like horseshoe bend that are not on the pavement and a bit harder to get to.
Is there any chance you would ever do a 1-month trial membership or something where we can check out the community and the resources you have available? I would love the opportunity to check out the group and lean about how to get into the overland world without having to make the full annual commitment.
I'm buying a 1994 FJ80 triple locked on Wednesday and live in Redding CA. Do you do meetups? This vehicle is mostly stock, just has a bull bumper and led light bar. So looking at what I need to do.
Ya! There area meetups in your area from time to time though I don't see any scheduled at the moment. in the app you can keep an eye on meetups in your area or create your own! It's free unless you get into the offroad mapping, offline map downloads, etc. www.overlandbound.com/ob1
I started watching your videos years ago when you were doing more rig walk arounds than anything else. It was a turnoff because you appeared to be waiting your turn to talk. I know you knew what was coming next, but take a breath. Since then, your videos have become more authentic and enjoyable. I enjoy all of them now. Congratulations on the meaningful weekend with your daughter.
Hey Mikey! I liked the video very much. That and your philosophical musings. Goodluck with your daughter. It's way more complicated for the youth of today. The relentless politics, etc. A far cry from our youth. Cheers, Mate.
No, that just means you need to look at more expensive vehicles. The mods, gear, and gadgets are necessary to let everyone know you’re an overlandererer, which is the first rule of overlandering.
You don’t need the mods gear and gadgets, it’s all a choice you make. For example you might want to spend some money on better tyres or suspension that give you that capability to get on the trails you want to explore… or you spend some money on an awning so you have a bit of shelter, you make yourself a drawer system because you want to have your gear organised etc. If you really enjoy it you will go down that road and it won’t be about the value of gear vs vehicle. Some newer vehicles might not even be the best option for what you want to do.
There’s nothing like disconnecting from the daily rat race and getting away to beautiful and inspiring locations. Respect nature and leave it as if you were never there. Adventure IS self care.

Yay
High School sucked for a lot of us. Nature is awesome, and heals.
Truth

Overland Bound is so much more then just “Overlanding”. Love it. 👍🏻❤️

It’s my pleasure John. Thank you for watching. 👊🏼
Thank you for sharing! This was a great video, such a nice location to spend some priceless family time together too!
I appreciate you opening up and tying in the benefit as a father to have a solo with your daughter anytime when it seems to be the ultimate reset.

This one was a great video and I really enjoyed the content.
Thanks for this video bro. I'm ready!
A wonderful aspect of why you started OB in the first place.
Your studio lighting is why I stayed on this video. Beautiful quality
Great message. Love the talk.
I love all your videos man!
I have no words. She looks like a real winner.
Great vid Michael! Don't wait so long for the next vacation! 😂
Note takes! :D

love this...
im not sure id take my crewcab F150 to where you went! LOL
I am doing the CDT trail you gave me the route on the OB website!!!
So good to hear! Enjoy the adventure!
Cleetus McFarland uses same timelapse music. I was so confused for a sec
Thanks!
Oh man! Thank you so much. Corrie and I will raise a glass to you!
I only really enjoy camping when it's remote enough to be all alone...
How did you attach the InReach mini to your a-pillar?
How do you find people to learn more about the taking on these adventures? I am in ms.
Love it man! Any suggestions for those of us living in NYS where there's not much space available?
There are always some little gems - the community tries to add good locations in our app Overland Bound One.
I was curious and thinking this as well, also being from NY (LI).
Is there any chance you would ever do a 1-month trial membership or something where we can check out the community and the resources you have available? I would love the opportunity to check out the group and lean about how to get into the overland world without having to make the full annual commitment.
It’s something we are working on. Get the app and write me a note. A PM Message. I’m “Michael” in the app.

Rig question...
Are standard load tires sufficient for over landing or would you recommend at least a C - load?
depends on what you are packing - tires are key - the tires I use are E rated. BFG KM3 315/75R16
Hey Mikey! I liked the video very much. That and your philosophical musings. Goodluck with your daughter.
It's way more complicated for the youth of today. The relentless politics, etc. A far cry from our youth. Cheers, Mate.
Thank you Jack 👊🏼
@@OverlandBound You're very welcome.
Where is this location can you share the coordinates 🤙
At what point do the mods, gear and gadgets become too much? When it exceeds the value of a new vehicle?
No, that just means you need to look at more expensive vehicles. The mods, gear, and gadgets are necessary to let everyone know you’re an overlandererer, which is the first rule of overlandering.
You don’t need the mods gear and gadgets, it’s all a choice you make. For example you might want to spend some money on better tyres or suspension that give you that capability to get on the trails you want to explore… or you spend some money on an awning so you have a bit of shelter, you make yourself a drawer system because you want to have your gear organised etc. If you really enjoy it you will go down that road and it won’t be about the value of gear vs vehicle.
