he goal of these events is to create a casual and small environment in which members of the forum and everyone passionate about overlanding can meet up, learn, teach and exchange on all aspects of expedition and adventure.

Lead by Brian McVickers and Jean-Philippe Tondreau, the preparation started months before.

Members of the forum also helped; virtually at first by sending ideas and recommendations and on-site during the actual gathering.

Activities started on Friday with a constant influx a people coming in.

Several classes were thought on Friday morning and Saturday morning.

The afternoons were left empty so people can go enjoy the trails or spend time with the vendors.
