Hi there,
Good memory you have, my crew was the same, and some other vehicles were the same, some others were different.
They are basically guided excursions, all accomodations, food, trips, routes are arranged so you only have to show up and have some fun.
End of July I'm going to a new one in the snow, its winter down here now, the trip will take us to the Andes mountains which is the same chain of mountains as the Rockies in The US..only that in South America, when i get back i'll share the pics.
To my Jeep I have new defenses in the front so it doesnt end so exposed, i was going to get the Lower Guard from Chieproducts but a local here said he could do it for me...so we'll see how it works, same thing for the back to protect the rubber lower fascia that suffers a lot when in water, sand or mud,..so we'll see.
Anyways, have a great day, regards
