OverlandResource.com

We have opened the website up for our readers to guest write articles for the site.  If you have something to write related to any topic that even loosely falls under the subject of overland and expedition travel then go ahead and visit our article submission page and send us something!

We’ve realized how important it is to provide information to more than just English speaking folk – so we’ve installed a translation engine onto the website that will (hopefully) allow more people access.  Languages include Italian, Portuguese, German, French, Spanish, Russian, Dutch, Bulgarian, Czech, Croat, Danish, Finnish, Polish, Swedish, and finally Norwegian!  It will take a few weeks for the translation process to complete, but hopefully by the beginning of November it will be up and running.  To choose your native language select the flag from the top of the website.

We are now offering large scale (1:500,000) topo maps of South America for download directly from OverlandResource.com. These are calibrated and georeferenced and come with a complete names database for OziExplorer. The maps are originally produced by the Soviet Military, so they are in Cyrillic.

Along with the ever-growing article archive, we are now listing eBay products that we have either bought or have researched and consider valuable for overland expedition travelling. Visit our Product Listings to see what’s there. eBay has been a great online resource for us in our trip preparations so we though we’d share it with you.
