Mastercraft
Easter Jeep Safari Coverage - Monday Noon. Report
|
Moab, Utah
? The sun is shining here in the Moab Valley this morning as
blue sky's appear to be here for the day. However, the cold breeze
reminds you that you better have a jacket before heading out on the
trail. The Mastercraft crew arrived to Farabee's Jeeps this morning
where the Jeep Rob-i-con, driven by Lisa Pierce, led the way as the crew
headed with Red Rock 4 Wheelers into the Moab rocks.
Downtown Moab was
bustling with activity early this morning as groups of Jeeps met for
early morning coffee and donuts in search of the day's trail ride. We
expect the Mastercraft Team to arrive back in the mid-afternoon so stay
tuned and look for a complete report from the rocks of Moab.

Easter Jeep Safari Coverage - Monday A.M. Report
|
Moab,
Utah ? The Easter Jeep Safari begins this morning under the
cloudy threatening skys of the Moab Valley. Throughout the weekend the
Moab Valley was the center of what could be referred to as the
"Perfect Storm." Rain, snow and winds from Northern Utah
invaded the entire Moab Valley from the north as a huge Arizona storm
came in from the south turning trails from passable to nearly
impassable. Deep mud, rising rivers and wild action is what it was all
about throughout Moab.
The
weekend activities centered around the arrival of thousands of off-roaders
to the Moab valley in search of the perfect trail ride and a chance to
see what's new in the world of aftermarket performance parts.
The
Mastercraft Team has arrived to Moab, Utah and by the time you read this
report we'll be well on our way into the backcountry of the slickrock.
The crew today will be led by Red Rock 4Wheelers KingPin - Tony Inman,
as he takes the Mastercraft crew out for the first of many trail rides
this week.
We
will return with hundreds of images so stay tuned as we provide a
complete report later in the day. In the meantime, visit
www.mastercraftseats.com for the latest in advanced technology.
