This was our first Overland Rally and it was much larger than expected! After being prompted by Dan of Northwest Overland, I helped out by volunteering and heard that we had about 800 people come through the gates. There were many vendors, classes, a few trail drives, and lots of ways to spend money! We met many great people who are generous and like minded. The nightly raffles and fires were also pretty fun, even though I didn't win or catch any goods. Some of the major sponsors included Overland Journal, ARB, Mountain Khakis, Expedition Overland, Come Up winches, Adventure Trailers (AT), Xventure trailers, Defenders Northwest, Torfab, Snow Peak, Filson, Das Mule, and my personal favorite - Four Wheel Campers. Other presenters and big name participants included Exploring Elements, From Desk to Glory, and Northwest Overland.
