Overland Expo West

Ok Gents,

Another year gone...and another expo west is upon us. I'll be heading up from Tucson on Thursday if anyone is interested in caravaning.

See ya there!
Hey! If you're going to take ROADS to Flagstaff, we'd be interested in caravaning.
 
I’m still getting used to using the app. I tend to meet up with the FB groups for all my overlanding & wheeling trips.
Well, I just found this and I think I'll give it a shot. Sometime soon if not for the trek up to the Expo.

Are you familiar with the Arizona Backcountry Discovery Route? From Tucson to Flagstaff to the Grand Canyon.

This looks interesting! Depending on time, I may try to do a small portion of this on the way up.

I've been invited as a presenter by Overland Expo and will be there for the entire expo while camping in Tatanka on-site. I hope to see and meet many of you that are attending. My topic is "Comfort is an Illusion."

Deliberate Discomfort (van Camp)? Reading it now. Cool concept.
 
That route is on the OB1 app
Here's a screenshot of the route, through Flagstaff.
Arizona BDR - Medium (Mexican border to the Grand Canyon). Looks like a fun, scenic route. Not especially difficult.

Thought I’d get a head start on this. Unfortunately my spouse can’t join me but am going to head that way this year for my first time. Been wanting to go for quite a while, since they started just could never swing it. We will be heading out from North Georgia but have to stop in Colorado a few days beforehand. Would love to meet up with others and network and get to know others on here.

I am planning on doing expo Pacific Northwest I may do west but it’s the same weekend as the coyote works high altitude overland trip so I might do that instead if there is a get together I’d love to hear about it ding me with details

Hey! Off topic but where will the coyote works high altitude overland trip post photos and other info? Would like to see that! Might generate ideas for expeditions by the Arizona crowd.
 
I would imagine that @coyoteworks and at @advwithRoscoe the two organizers well post information to their social media accounts. I’ll be taking quite a bit of photos for Instagram not sure if I’ll do any video or not.
