The Camel Trophy undoubtedly conjures attractive images of adventure and exploration using Land Rovers in the way they were built to be used, and these days I reckon there is still a market for these events. So what can you do? Make your own!...
There is an element of expedition planning that needs to be done, but there comes a point when there are things you will never know unless you actually do it. And then of course there are the random events that make expeditions such fun that they make up the tapestry of surviving as a self sufficient unit....
