About the Event
Thanks @OverlandPioneers for capturing the highlights and special moments from the inaugural Overland the Red event in the Red River Gorge, KY. This overland and off-road basecamp was a huge success thanks to our attendees, sponsors and the amazing staff at Callie’s Lake and Campground. We gave away over $10k in prizes, including a TC Teardrops Oasis Overland camper trailer in a raffle that raised over $3,300 for the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway.
