There are several Moab threads so I just posted (and won't repeat it all here) but for those that went, when I found was for experiencing off roading (especially in the Bronco) it was awesome. But for learning about off roading, not so much.

Meaning there was practically no spotting (except for that one "steps" obstacle), they didn't do the recover lesson/demo, and aside of basically teaching about tread lightly and announcing a few spots on the trail as to when to use a specific feature, it really felt more like one of those guided off road tour rentals than an Off Road school.

Don't get me wrong, if all you wanted to do is be left alone and go off-roading in a Bronco, it was awesome. But if you're hoping to learn things like how to pick better lines, how to do recoveries, what not to do and when to do...it really didn't cover any of it.

I only say this for people that are selecting sites having certain expectations. When you see a lot of the other videos, you see instructors stationed at all the various obstacles to kind of walk you through, give you tips, spot you, etc.

But in Moab, you are doing a real trail, with real rocks, and so you do not have all that pre-designed stations/obstacles, and instead just tackle what nature has provided (and it DID provide some awesome stuff)

Just curious about your opinion on New Hampshire being the best Off-Rodeo. Is there more diverse terrain? I live in PA, so it's the closest. Haven't decided which one to attend yet.
He’s obviously never been to Utah. I love the USA but Utah has the most beauty!

I just did mine on Wednesday, and there was a Dad/Daughter that brought their dog. I was a bit surprised and really expected the instructors to say something but they didn't.

Now they ended up being in the other group so I can't say how it all went (I never actually saw them get in the Bronco with their dog) but she was their through all the orientation so one can only assume.
Freakin awesome! Thanks for the info!!
