Overland Expo 2015: The Australian Influence

Advertisements

The annual North American gathering of the overland tribe, known as Overland Expo, just wrapped up in Mormon Lake, Arizona this past weekend. The event was marked by unusual winter conditions this year, with sleet, hail, snow, rain and cold temperatures. All of that crazy weather added up to some pretty muddy and cold overlanders! The hearty ones that toughed out the whole weekend were rewarded with sunshine and more time to share stories from the road on the final day. The Australian overland/4×4 touring/off-road influence was felt throughout the show, as the pictures below show.

Maxtrax wasn’t in attendance this year as a vendor, but they were being used everywhere around the event to extract vehicles out of the muddy quagmire in the general camping area. They also worked great to remove the mud from boots and act as foot bridges around camp.
