....on the otherhand, Easterners have no good weather to speak of any time of the year. Site the Overland Expo East last October: a total mud fest on set-up day due to torrential rains (probably more rain in one day than the entire Southwest had all year LOL!). Then, we had a deep-freeze (see my photos in the thread on OE East) where my 3/4 empty cup of tea dregs froze inside the camper overnight (we easterners don't need no stinkin' heaters...LOL!) :E
OBXcamper, Billtex wha' da' ya' think?
Yes, when reading the Oe West reports it reminded me of our Oe East weather. One big difference, the west expo is pretty flat, Taylor Ranch, not so much.
Re: Expedtion Portal forum...it is hard to find good event reports with all the sub forums. Here is one long thread with some good photos starting on page 20. Hope it's ok to link here.
clicky
I revisited the link last night, one thing that really stood out was how many of the posters commented "they finally got to try out their gear" at the mud fest.
Lol.
