We attended our fourth Overland Expo, this time in Flagstaff, Arizona, from 16-19 May 2019. This time, we did things a little differently and signed up for classes instead of just browsing the myriad of vendors. We learned a lot of new things, but we overbooked ourselves and didn’t really get a chance to see all the vendors nor visit with all our friends. Next time, we will try and pace things a little differently!
There were lots of classes, I took a few photography classes, an electricity class, some vehicle marshaling and recovery classes, and how to survive overlanding with your spouse :). Chuck took classes like winching, left foot braking, and driving over obstacles. We brought the Jeep with us, so we could learn harder skills with our own vehicle without having to break camp.
Did I mention that it was COLD this year? It caused a lot of folk to bale out a bit early…
What is overlanding, you ask? Here is a short video from someone we met on overlanding and this event.
