I checked around and he was supposed to be there with Mike Coleman and John Cole in their Jeep Comanche (friends of ours) but his grandma passed away just before the race so he wasn't able to attend.

Here are a few of my favorite shots of our entry for this year's race. Photo credits to Jeff Furrier and someone from RDC (probably Art Eugenio).

I'm pretty sure you're correct, Mikey.
The bottom of that road is the only place I've ever seen a flash flood in person. Thankfully, it wasn't very large but it was amazing how quickly the water arrived and then subsided.
Great photos, Mark!

This was our third year participating in this event and again we had a great time! We finished third in class with no major issues. After a week in Baja, it's tough to come back to the real world.

Years ago (mid '80s), I think we did such a connection but I don't remember how we hooked it all together. If I was to start looking, I'd look for a road that hooks into the road between Bagdad and the Yolo Ranch (continuation of the Camp Wood road)and comes in from the west just north of...
Check with Sierra Expeditions - I've seen a JK or two getting some AEV components installed there. Wil will likely know of someone who can handle it if they can't do it.
Also, you might check with Jason Demento (sp?) at Airpark Jeep in Scottsdale. They're an AEV dealer.

Without being familiar with the architecture of the vehicle, I assume this panel is something that is removable/replaceable with a piece that is laser cut elsewhere? From your description, I have visions of someone in the fenderwell trimming with their light saber :).

I like the "old souls" idea and your FJ60 would certainly fit the bill. I can think of other examples from the '80s as well (Larry's beautiful blue Chevy truck comes to mind). In contrast, the 3 vehicles shown in NOIBN's "late arrivals" photo below are all old vehicles (40+ years old) with...
Here's a link to an article on the cemetery:

I'll try to post a few pics when I get a chance as well.
I want to publicly thank a few folks that helped me this weekend. When Sam and I arrived at Palm Canyon, I smelled coolant and soon discovered...
A great time was had by all! Mike and Melissa and Nick/Lance/Leland are still out there somewhere. The rest of us working stiffs came back this afternoon. Very beautiful, remote country. It's the first time I've ever been in this part of AZ and I'd like to go back. Plenty of photos and...
Mikey:
What type(s) of comms for this trip?
And if we roll in around 8:30 a.m., is that too late? Or ok timewise? We can make it earlier.
Lance/Nick - any idea on when you guys might be arriving?

It's looking a little more hopeful for me to attend - assuming everything comes together for vehicle re-assembly this week. I saw your original notation, Mikey, about the mileposts where we turn off I-10 and I see Lance's green arrow on the map. Is it pretty straightforward to get from the...
