Expedition: Lands End
10/21 - 10/28
We are thrilled to announce Expedition: Lands End! If you’ve been wanting to join us on a Baja adventure...this is the one! This will be a once in a lifetime adventure-vacation as we criss cross the Baja peninsula all the way to Cabo.
Covering over 1500 miles of the Baja desert in 5 days, our group will experience trails driven by off-road legends such as Ivan Stewart, Rob MacCachren, Robby Gordon, BJ Baldwin, and many other racing champions. While our priority is ensuring a safe, relaxing, and fun run for all participants, both you and your truck will be challenged on some of the toughest off-road terrain in the world.
We will see some of the most amazing beaches and sites along the way. By now you guys know, Baja is amazing. It gets even more amazing the further south so we are very much looking forward to sharing this experience with all of you.
Expedition: Land End will begin Thursday October 21st and end on Thursday October 28th.
Day 1 - We will meet north of the Mexico border in Southern California. A driver’s meeting will be held before we cross, ensuring all participants are aware of the run details, rules on the trail, safety concerns, and road conditions. Our crew and participants will cross into Mexico as a group.
Once we cross, we will convoy south to Bahia De Los Angeles. Along the way, we'll stop in San Felipe for Tacos.
We'll then hit the the San Borja Mission.
We'll also plan on swinging by the San Borja Mission.
