Attend the MuddyOval spring cookoff in Stowe and you too can drown your Rover here.

The attached picture was taken on top of Mt. Abbot in Maine, which has, unfortunately, since been closed to vehicles shortly after an article on the site appeared in FourWheeler magazine.  My truck is the 88" series and in front is a RRC that belongs to Richard Chase.  The two defenders and the 109" belong to my other good friends.

This has been my favorite picture from 2007. It was taken in August, outside and above Ouray, Colorado, along the Engineer's Pass, off the Alpine Loop. Riding along the old mining roads, we were able to look down at the San Juan mountains. We continued up this route to about 14,500 feet.

We attended the 2007 National Land Rover Rally, sponsored by the Solihull Society. The picture was taken from our 94 Disco I...the pictured vehicle was one of the Solihull Society's volunteer leaders. I don't remember his name...I think it was Jim Hall.

Hardcore mountain man Fred takes charge of the situation and guides Richard and Deb through a long marsh with an uncertain depth.

This is the stuff beer commercials are made of.

Submitted by Adam B

Adam took this picture on the Longitude Expedition.  Winching in front of the Taj Mahal... if I had a dollar for every time this happened to me... sheesh.

Technically, this picture wasn't taken in 2007- but it was recently released as the Expedition is being televised in the U.K.

This picture was taken 1-11-07.  This is my 1993 Range Rover Classic SWB.  This night started when my friend was on some gas well roads in a two wheel drive Toyota truck (lights in the background) and was stuck.  It  was just going to be a short recovery and go back home when I saw this mud. I had to try it! Needless to say I got swamped in this western pa mud.  The recovery wasn't bad, short and no major problems.  The good news is I made the hole without getting stuck on the way back through!!

A picture from RonC’s 100 trek. This is Brian’s G4 stuck on a rock. Taken early May 2007.

This picture was taken in July 2007 at Shoe Creek in Virginia. Steven Light was determined that the rock would not beat him - and you can only appreciate the angle his truck, Molly, is at if you turn the picture so the trees are vertical....! It was a fabulous weekend out and the Jeep boys we met on the trail were cheering him on to climb this - they were well impressed with the Rover!
