Matt Ewalt

I have a deep passion for adventure, exploring, and the outdoors. I love hiking, camping, Overlanding, and adventure motorcycle riding. I have a goal of spending at least 30 nights a year in a sleeping bag (which I rarely hit), and my happy place is getting as far from civilization as possible and finding the less explored corners of North America. My other passion is my family and raising my five kids. We're a little nomadic in nature, having lived in Oregon, Louisiana, California, DC/Virginia, Colorado, Washington, and now I'm back in Colorado. I suffer from wanderlust and enjoy a good coddiwomple. I have been wheeling most of my life, mainly to get to a trailhead or campsite. My offroad vehicle of choice has varied dramatically over the years; I have recently discovered ADV motorcycles, and I don't think I will ever look at Overlanding the same. When exploring with the family, my 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser or 2016 Toyota Sequoia are my go-to vehicles. Previously I've had a Gen2.5 Mitsubishi Montero, Subaru wagons, an old Ford farm truck, and an 80's diesel Mercedes which was surprisingly good at exploring the back roads of the NW.
