Camel Trophy Expedition Skills

In honor of Overland Expo West, happening this weekend in Flagstaff, Arizona, here's a throwback to last year's Overland Expo East on the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina. 

The Camel Trophy Expedition Skills Area is always a highlight of the Expo for me. It's where you learn to build bridges across dry river gulches and lift an engine out of a Land Rover with nothing more than a box of toothpicks and some bubble gum.

The Camel Trophy guys are the MacGyvers of the Outback and you get smarter just watching them. And then they put you to work and you realize how little you actually know!
