4th Annual Willys Overland Moab Rally May 17-19,2013

Moab 2013 is now a Great Memory

Come on...... Someone give us a report and pic's from the weekend. It must have been a great time,everyone is so whore out they can't post pic's. Some one give us a bone please........ Terry

Hey Terry... I don't know if everyone is Whored Out, But I know that I'm sure Worn Out and Beat to Hell from trying to have too much fun in Moab! :cool: We got back home from Moab sometime this afternoon (Monday). The Friday night Pizza with everyone was a fun time. Saturday's Forum Trail Ride in Aches National Park is very cool. "Our Own" Trail Ride on Sunday with my Daughter, my Son in Law Alvin, his Mom & Dad, myself, and Casey from the Forum was a very busy and long day on the trail.

We did the whole Poison Spider Trail and "The Launching Pad" and over the Golden Crack. Problems with a Clogged Fuel System slowed down forward progress for one of our vehicles. Another vehicle had minor body damage in several places on his Wagon. I thought I may have blown my Motor as it was making a terrible new noise. It turned out that one of my Headers almost fell off! All the Header Bolts at the motor loosened up. We didn't get off the trail before dark and it took four hours trying to find our way down in the Pitch Black Darkness. No Fun not knowing if you are just driving off a large ledge or driving off a Cliff in Major Darkness. We got back to our Cabin at 10:30PM. I feel like I've been beat to a pulp! Will Post pics and videos soon. Pivnic
 
Here are some shots my GF K.D. took on Saturday. I was in Caseys wagon when we went through a gate leaving arches, there were a few people camped right outside the park one guy was near the rear of his car who had the most perplexed look on his face as we rolled by, guess he wasn't expecting to see 10 or so Willys to go rolling by.

I had a great time this weekend, Great to meet all of you guys, what a great group. We had a hard time getting going Sunday and by the time we hit the coffee joint there were no Willys in sight :( I was bummed big time. I WILL attend next year and I will have my Wagon in attendance with me.

I dont think she did too bad seeing as she was driving solo with the camera out the window on alot of those.

We drove by around 9:30 and didn't even poke out heads in since we didn't see any of the rigs around.

John- Sounds like you guys had quite an adventure on Sunday... looking forward to the pics!

Thanks everyone for the reports and pic's. Looks like it was another great rally. It was pure HE!! sitting at home and think about being there. Now that I'm motivated, we'll see everyone next year.

Awesome pics Pete. I showed them to my wife who said: "Wow, he takes really good pictures." :cheers:

Here's to Moab 2014. Maybe a few of us West Coast folk could rent a multi-rig car trailer and borrow a tow vehicle... already dreaming.

Cheers,
