    I prefer the Flagstaff because it gives me a excuse to off road and explore the surrounding area for future camping trips.

    We went a couple years ago, good time. A bit pricey for a weekend pass with camping.

    Flagstaff is the original one and has the most vendors 450+ Grand Canyon is nearby and plenty of BLM to scout out also. I love following the old route 66 from town to town. :thumbsup:

    It came up in rotation for us and we couldn't pass. Just did the Superstition trip a couple weeks ago and @Speed Freek was there with his RV, all I saw was Lonestar. Great trip, good to see everyone.

    My father in law invited me and I didn’t know it was overland expo. My wife just kept saying it’s a camping swapmeet. I was pleasantly surprised upon arrival. Anyone else make it there?
