The No Limits Expeditions scouting trip to Central America was a lot of fun and a pretty successful trip. We had eight people in two Defender 110s, and we managed to make it from Chan Chich in Belize to David in Panama in just 14 days. Highlights included the Camp Six road in Belize, crossing [...]
Not a very exciting blog post, but one to mention that we have now opened the Overland Training store in conjunction with Expeditions West and Expedition Portal. The October Comprehensive Course is now available for purchase on the store site through the Course Catalog. Or go directly to the store page.
We hope that this will [...]
Central America Scouting Trip

No Limit Expeditions is offering a rare opportunity for select individuals to join our preliminary scouting trip across the wilds of Central America. We will spend 14 days traversing jungle tracks through Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Costa Rica & Panama. [...]
The April Overland Training Comprehensive Course was supposed to cater for interested people coming off the Overland Expo. Unfortunately, it didn’t turn out that way, but ended up being attended by a military unit and a reporter. Certainly not ideal.

Jay and Alice of the Muskoka Foundation and builders of the massive (and impressive) Eco-Roamer came to Overland Training for some custom instruction on recovering and driving such a large vehicle.

The 2010 edition of this event, which brings together the Overland community in North America for training and vendor interfacing, was a massive success. Held in Amado AZ, we had over 100 exhibitors, and 300 people signed [...]
So a couple of weekends ago Roseann Hanson, director of the Overland Expo and I went to Amado Arizona to scout routes for the driving sections of the Overland Expo and to finalize plans for the classes and seminars.
This year the Overland Expo is going to be a very large event and is the [...]
Beautiful location for a class
Overland Training recently completed the February Comprehensive course in Arizona. Much to our surprise the area we do the initial driving and recovery training was completely changed due to massive water flow. In some ways it was very nice as traffic was minimized, we had a nice river crossing to [...]
Overland Training requires a Wilderness First Aid certification for our Overland Certification program, and to date we have (and still do) accept WFAs from various providers like NOLS and Wilderness Medical Associates. But, while great, these organizations cater to a large audience and one that is not specifically vehicle based. We saw that there is [...]
