Who we are
WHAT'S THE PNW4WDA?

The Pacific Northwest Four Wheel Drive Association (PNW4WDA) is a non-profit group made up of clubs and individuals who love vehicle-oriented outdoor recreation and care about protecting the environment. Covering 8 regions in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho, we work together to make off-roading better for everyone.

​

Founded in 1960 as the Pacific Northwest Jeep Association, we later became the PNW4WDA to welcome all four-wheel drive vehicle owners.

​

We're committed to preserving our environment for future generations. That's why we focus on education and training, believing that informed off-roaders make the biggest impact.
