Since 2001 I do a Moab trip at least once a year.  I organize the Moab event for the Hummer Club Inc.every September.  It's their keystone event.
 
This year I've made the theme a Zombie Hunt!
 
We'll be wheeling for a couple of days in the high Rockies in Colorado (13,000'!), the wicked terrain in Aztec New Mexico then 5 days wheeling in Moab.
 
Durango, Colorado, Aztec, New Mexico and Moab Utah are all pretty close to each other but the terrain is wildly different.  There's a reason this is THE hummer event to attend.
 
I think we have 5 trucks just from Alberta going.  There are some really cool guys in Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and BC that come from time to time too.  Lots of Canadians!
 
With driving time there and back, and all the wheeling it's a 2 week trip for me.  That includes a few days of pre-running the trails with my trail leaders.
 
With the Zombie Hunt theme the swag this year is incredible.  It's way cool.
 
Damn - I can hardly wait!

Wow Greg, I didn't realize you organized the Moab event every September. That's awesome .for some reason I thought last year was your first year doing it. Anyway, thanks for the effort you've put in over the years. It really is a great event!

Last year was my first year! Sorry if I misled anyone. I say I organize it every year since I'm at 2 years in a row now and I'm already working on next years event.


I have also organized a few spring events to Moab that are not Hummer Club events - just fun.


Are you coming this year Roy? I can't tell you how excited I am about the Zombie Hunt theme. The swag is way cool!

Hi Guys,
 
Heading down to Coleman to hook up with a group formed on Facebook (Southern Alberta Offroad) and we are going to do the plane crash trail on Saturday - Karl will be there as he's in the group..
 
Just in case anyone was interested, meeting up at the 7-11 in Coleman at 9 - 9:30..(I would imagine there is only one 7-11 in Coleman.....)
