FOUNDER & ENTHUSIAST
Hi, I'm Dan Cronin and I am passionate about connecting you with the natural beauty the Northwest has to offer.
Throughout my life, Overland Adventures have been an amazing way to connect with others that enjoy traveling deep into the secret places our beautiful region has to offer. I've shared many great moments with family and friends - along with my treasured travel companions, Charlie (my pup) and daughter, Lucia... leaving me with wonderful memories and a deep appreciation for this unique approach to adventure travel.
WHAT IS NORTHWEST OVERLAND? We are a member based community that provides self-guided and escorted overland adventures here in the Pacific Northwest.
Your membership affords you the opportunity to join us on guided expedition tours into areas that are hidden and unknown by most. Each self-driven adventure is carefully planned to maximize your experience, allowing you to fully rely on your transportation for enjoyment and survival. Our trips promise to thrill and surprise those willing to detour off the beaten path as we encounter unforgettable discoveries.
We are also a thriving and growing community. When we're not out blazing new trails, you can find us chillin' at a local pub near you - envisioning our next excursion or investment; swapping stories; or just sippin' on a beer, enjoying like-minded people who share our passion. We hope you'll join us and maybe even consider being an area coordinator for trips or local social engagements. I'd love to chat if you have questions, feel free to drop me a line!

DIRECTOR OF SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT
With my dad being from eastern Montana and my mom from Arkansas, a love of the outdoors and nature is part of my DNA. Growing up in Washington State my family enjoyed many camping trips, or as they are now referred to as “glamping trips” with dads trusty Winnebago.
As an adult, I found that when I can escape the concrete jungle and get out into the mountains I really find my peace and a sense of rejuvenation. In 2020 I purchased what may be the best thing I have ever purchased in my life. My 2018 Jeep Wrangler JLU that I have affectionately named Casper after one of my favorite childhood cartoons. With help from friends and family along the way I have built Casper into my version of “dads trusty Winnebago”.
In 2022 after knowing Dan Cronin for several years he invited me to become part of the Northwest Overland Family and team. My world has changed. NWOL has introduced me to new experiences, new and amazing friends and places I only dreamed of going. Now my weekends are synonymous with dusty trails, remote campsites, and the camaraderie of fellow outdoor enthusiasts. I have finally found where I belong.
For me, camping and overlanding isn't just a pastime—it's a way of life, a reminder of the boundless wonders awaiting those who dare to wander. And with each new journey, I find myself grateful for the lessons learned and the memories made along the way.
I am Theresa Bird, director of social engagement for Northwest Overland and I look forward to meeting you at one of our monthly meet and greets or on the trail.
