Friday was a GPS Scavenging hunt that three vehicles would work together. Teams were given GPS coordinates of certain locations around town and on the trail and then with the help of @onxoffroad , they made their way to each checking where they are required to take a group photo.
Saturday we were out all day in four different groups. Each group had a lead and a tail gunner to make sure everyone made it through the obstacles. I heard of only a couple of issues which was a Jeep had a thermostat issue which was a quick parking lot fix but later broke the yoke for front drive shaft. Another Jeep had the air pressure so low the tire came off the rim.
Here is a photo of the group we were out with with the trail leader (Kyle) being in the 4runner on the left and the tail gunner being in the red 4runner on the right.
Ended it back at the hotel for a banquet with the sponsors of the event where the host of the event introduced the sponsors and gave them the mic for a couple minutes to introduce themselves. Without sponsors like this it would be close to impossible to enjoy this as much as we do. THANK YOU!
They then led into an Award Ceremony where we took an award.
Sunday many went home and others had some fun on some trails west of the hotel.
Looks like a blast. I’ll have to look into discover 4×4 adventures. Sounds like something we would be interested in.
