These are pictures from a campout we had in Queen valley . Sept 2005We don't have the nicest equipmentBlaine drove Billys 78 F-150 , without his permission but he wasnt using it.We went on a trail ride / scenic drive to the top of Iron mountain. This is on the way down off Iron mountain, its pretty high. We followed Hewitt canyon road up through Hewitt canyon. The drive is more than a few miles. Towards the end there some steep switch backs, over all the trail is relatively easy four wheel drive is not required its a nice drive though as long as its not hot you climb a few thousand feet but its not like the pines.
In front of us was Jared in has 4 seater rail. on the way up he lost his breaks, due to the lack of fluid. We added ATF I guess it work on the way down but it destroyed all the rubber parts in the system.

What is Overlanding
- While expedition is defined as a journey with a purpose, overlanding sees the journey as the purpose.
- It's all about the adventure -- Exploration, Education and Conservation!
- Overlanding is self-reliant overland travel to remote destinations where the journey is the principal goal. Typically, but not exclusively, accommodated by mechanized off-road capable transport (from bicycles to trucks) where the principal form of lodging is camping; often lasting for extended lengths of time (months to years) and spanning international boundaries.

My brother Billy and I volunteered to be apart of the chase team for "the cow truck" for the fall of 2006 race. This is the Truck we chased in the Baja 1000
We were the first designated fuel stop. A 30 second job and we were done participating in the race. We could have chased longer but we decided it would just be sight seeing and work was waiting for us.
We waited. while waiting we helped two other teams. one fuel and a father and son team change a tire on there vw powered rail.
We watched as rigs flew by.
Of course no pictures of us fueling. The fueling went off without a hitch

Mesa is my place of residence becuase:
- Heratige.
- It is our home base.
- It is not in the country.
- I was born here.
- Mesa-nites can rest easy knowing they don't have to mow their lawns.
