More memorable moments...

Most memorable:
1. Pasquatch! Priceless

That one got some mileage! Way too funny.

Pasquatch

There has only been one documented encounter. Reports indicate that the Pasquatch has only one large square like eye. Scientists believe this creature to be closely related to the Sasquatch. believed to inhabit the Arctic regions of North America. Victims are typically found with burn marks similar to those caused by the use of a propane torch and some a black wire clipped to the front of their shirts.

Coming soon to Wikipedia!

Note: I'm not that creative this is my recollection of the evening's dialogue...


There was anohter discussion on the first night at camp I believe about a certain 80 Series landcruiser, medication side effects and the use of a credit card that went something like this:

1. www.sleeoffroad.com
2. select all
3. overnight delivery!

Did anyone ever figure out the entire phrase?

Yes, Lance & Greg S teamed together and were the only ones who before final scoring got it

next year we'll see more ladies, or even have a women's competition event!

For what it's worth, my wife suggested the same thing last year and we did initially plan on having an exposition rally for spouses/partners/friends at least in the Sand closed course. With the number of competitors and the tight schedule for the Nav course following, we couldn't fit it in, but looks like we'll definetely need to make it work in the upcoming years

...Scott Brady does not miss a beat while presenting the Arctic Expedition slideshow. Kristina blurts out, Pasquatch! - as she sees my shadowy form on the screen during the whiteout on the Dempster.
Scott says " that's gonna stick"

Coming soon to Wikipedia!

Thanks BMAN. I got some others sent to me via email as well. You caught a pretty good number of the rigs rolling out to the overland. Nicely done.
