The single most important thing you need to consider on an overland trip is water. But knowing exactly how much water to bring on an overland journey isn’t always easy — especially if you’re new to overlanding. In this article, we examine exactly how much water to bring for overland journeys as well as tools to make toting large quantities of water on the trail easier.
Not surprisingly, staying warm is the name of the game when it comes to overlanding during winter. As a person who overlands and camps year-round, I’ve come to rely on a handful of habits and pieces of gear to ensure that I remain comfortable (i.e. warm) during my winter excursions
My mission was to take the 2024 Overland Expo Ultimate Vehicle Build, a fully kitted GMC Canyon AT4X, on a trip from Outdoor Retailer in Salt Lake City, Utah to Redmond, Oregon for Overland Expo PNW.
If you like your backcountry trips easy-but-adventurous, and full of history, you won’t want to miss Russell Gulch, a largely abandoned mining town in Colorado.
Using the bathroom when overlanding can be a real challenge. When nature calls, and you need to use the bathroom on the trail, be prepared with the best practices and gear to poop outside — the correct way.

If you’re looking for a great little forest drive with a little bit of difficulty on your way to or from Overland Expo Mountain WEST in Loveland, Colorado, then look no further than Storm Mountain / Bear Gulch.
As a long-time explorer of National Forest fire roads, I’m old enough to remember when the only way to find a 4×4 trail was to check out a DeLorme Atlas and Gazetteer, call up a ranger station and ask for advice, get some beta from one of the locals while getting supplies, or simply finding a cool looking road and exploring. Somehow, I managed to find some pretty incredible and untouched places to get into the backcountry without the use of electronics.
Cooking over an open fire is not a new technique by any means. Our ancestors in the Paleolithic era threw hunks of meat onto open flame up to two million years before contemporary humans learned how to grill a perfect steak.
Often the most needed and most overlooked piece of equipment that you need to carry with you in the backcountry is a solid first aid kit.
Packing for adventure motorcycling can be an exercise in minimalism, but if you dial in the basics, you’ll be camping in comfort in no time. Like all things overlanding, you’ll develop your own systems with practice and experience— here are a few tips to get you started.
Sometimes exploring the backcountry means that you’ll get stuck, requiring the use of a winch to extract yourself. Learn some basic winching techniques to help you get out of any situation.
Overlanders looking for a simple way to improve off-road ride quality and performance automatically look to expensive bypass shock absorbers, lift kits to fit bigger tires, aftermarket coils, and burly leaf springs. But the answer they seek might be as simple as airing down on the trail.
Getting out into the backcountry with your overland vehicle for a few days or a few weeks is the perfect way to recharge your internal batteries and give you a new outlook on life. But the question we often get is, “How do you recharge your physical batteries while you’re in the wilderness?”

If you’re considering an EV or a smaller car and want to pull a trailer for camping, working, or a day at the beach, you usually have very few options. Most trailers are far too heavy to be towed by small cars. That is until the Polydrops P19 [Shorty] hit the market.
Bentonville, Arkansas-based EV maker Canoo just announced that they fulfilled a contract with the U.S. Army
If you’re on your way to or from Overland Expo Pacific Northwest in the Bend or Redmond, OR area and you have some time to explore the area, you might want to consider the Crooked River National Grasslands.

If you have a massive wad of cash burning a hole in your pocket, you might want to consider the Rezvani Vengeance for your next overland rig.
Vehicle-assisted adventure has a different look than it did just a decade ago. Specifically, our reliance on wayfinding electronics, camp lighting, and satellite internet makes it much different than simply loading your rig with a tent, your headlamp, and a cooler of food and heading off into the backcountry for the weekend.
