Easter Jeep Safari 2014 Brian “ College Boy” Gabriel When did you first become addicted to Jeeps? How long ago did you realize that you had caught that “Jeep thing?” For some of you it was first time Pap, Dad, or Uncle took you for a ride in his old Willys flat fender. There may have been that buddy with the killer CJ or YJ in college. Many are just getting into the sport with a bangerang JK Rubicon all decked out. Maybe the Jeep isn’t your thing, but romping your rig of choice offroad is what makes your tick. No matter where you find yourself, there is always a sense of comradery during the biggest week long infestations of Jeepers and their Jeeps from around the world, the Easter Jeep Safari! If you have never been to the Jeep Safari the week leading up to Easter Sunday in Moab, UT then it needs to be added to the top of your bucket list! The scenery is beyond amazing, the terrain is like nothing you have ever seen, and the people are all there for the same reason. Anyone can spend a week in Moab and not get enough; it’s everything from stockers to lockers! No matter what level you’re wheeling your jeep at, you always have to be prepared for the worst when you head out on the trail. No one knows this better than the kings of recovery, Warn Winches. 12 April 2014 On the Trails with Warn & Jessi Combs
