Ben Hodgin is an explorer drawn to places where pavement gives way to dirt miles. From rugged 4WD trails to quiet campsites and overlooked fishing waters, he spends his time roaming the wild places of the United States and Canada. His passion is building vehicles for self-reliant travel—venturing deep into remote landscapes through hiking, camping, and fishing. Along the way, he documents each journey through @DirtMileOffroad on YouTube and Instagram to offer an honest, grounded look at backcountry travel, adventure, and life outdoors.
