About Us/Our Story

The Great Ohio Outback Wilderness ( Wild Regions )

    The Great Ohio Outback Wilderness Regional Authority-Wild Regions  is the brainchild of outdoors Writer and adventurer Ron Brohm. Yes, believe it or not , Ohio now does has an Outback! At least in writer Ron Brohm’s world it does.

     Well, in actual reality, Ohio has always had an outback , because the outback is not just a remote place in Australia as many believe. An outback can be in many places and locations. According to dictionary.com , the outback is defined as;  the back country or remote settlements; the bush (usually preceded by the ), (sometimes initial capitals letter ).

     So let’s exam this. Ohio has miles and miles of back country and acres and acres of bush. Remote settlements exist all over the state such as small villages, camps, lodges and sparsely inhabited wilderness areas. So, yes, technically speaking and by the letter of the definition we have an Outback. 

     We have many outbacks, actually, all thoughout the state, regionally speaking. But, speaking  metaphorically and by the spirit of the definition we can also clearly declare we have an Outback in Ohio. In fact we have many. We have 17 Outback’s to be exact as defined by outdoors Writer and Superintendent Ron Brohm; the Magnificent 17 Wild Regions as he likes to call them. 

     After writing hundreds of Newspaper stories and columns over the years about Ohio’s Great Outdoors he realized and experienced for himself that Ohio has many different diverse outdoor areas. After studying this for a while he decided to break the state up into regions that more reflected the terrain and outdoor pursuits in each of those areas. He ended up with 17 diverse regions and decided to package all of them under a whole new exciting umbrella called the Great Ohio Outback Wilderness Wild Regions. 

     Let’s face it, the outback is also, a state of mind, it an outdoor wilderness adventurous place that yurns to explored with a sense of wonder and discovery.  The outback creates a sense of the unknown for an explorer, or a treasure hunter or swashbuckler  searching for nature’s most remote unique places and gems. It is a place you want to explore and discover.

    We are here to promote, monitor, market, help and feature journalistically, Ohio’s Great Outdoors. To create exciting and revealing content and ideas,  and to publish them for the good of all Ohio citizens, outdoor parks, wilderness organizations and tourist.
