Well, it\'s been a nice week of sunny 85+ degree days.
Last Saturday was the 4th annual Jeep Jamboree at Airpark Jeep in Scotsdale/Phoenix AZ.
There were over 200 Jeeps and over 400 people registered for this event.
I flew out there sept 30th and drove my dad\'s stock 2008 Wrangler X for this event (he was co-pilot). Over 40 miles of trails, a poker run, and food, a live band, and vendors back at Airpark when we were done.
only got a few pictures, but I\'ll be uploading video over the next week or so.
Partway in, some of the tamer trails:

Not just in climate, but in how they feel about offroaders. if NY would make extensive trails for offroad use, there would be TONS of tourist $$ in the budget. Instead, NY decided to drink the Insurance Co koolaid so we get nothing.
