Sorry if I missed this, but is anyone heading out to the Overland Expo on May 20-22, 2016 near Flagstaff, Arizona ? I am thinking about heading out there with the family.
Thanks,
Brian

Ah yes....the dry lakebed in sunny warm Arizona last year.
Did have a great time and I would highly recommend 4wd.

Just read on the Overland website today that their "no reservation needed" campground is now "soldout". All reservable campgrounds I can find within about 20 miles are booked which puts us driving 700+ miles in hopes we can find some dispersed camping somewhere else. Better be a good event.......

When I was there in '13 they had a huge field for dry camping. The last couple years have not been too dry tho!!!

To me this time of year is the most interesting and challenging best time of year to travel.

Another one to consider, on a smaller scale, is the NW Overland Rally up in WA State, towards the end of June.

just checking back in to see if anyone is planning on attending. I guess it might be kind of quiet this year in Flagstaff, AZ.
