What weâre about
Hello fellow Valley Jeepsters!!! Are you looking to have fun adventures with your Jeep? We are a group of family friendly off-road enthusiasts who love rock crawling, scenic desert drives, overlanding, camping and doing everything in between with a Jeep!
We run trails suitable for every type of Jeep, from leisurely desert drives to some of the most challenging trails we can find.
In addition to the local trails, we do 3-to-5-day trips around Arizona and beyond. Want to take your Jeep to the Rubicon Trail, Moab or perhaps the Black Bear Pass in Colorado? Want to ride all the cool Badge of Honor trails? Are you interested in Overlanding? Come join us then!
Although we are a laid-back group, there are couple of rules that you must abide by:
- Our group is for Jeep owners ONLY! Sorry, Bronco IS NOT a Jeep.
- You will be required to sign a liability waiver on the first run you do with us. Off-Roading, like all sports have inherent risks and dangers. All participants (on behalf of him or herself and his/her minor children) are responsible for their own safety during events, voluntarily accepts any and all risks of injury, harm, medical conditions, or property damage
- This is a family friendly group. As such, recreational shooting is not allowed while on the trail with us.
- Donât drink & drive. Having a beer at lunch is OK. Getting wasted on the trails not only endangers you but everyone else around you.
- Getting a flat tire on the trail is very common! Make sure to always carry a spare.
- When on the trail always remember to T.R.E.A.D. Lightly
- Travel and recreate with minimal impact.
- Respect the environment and the rights of others.
- Educate yourself, plan and prepare before you go.
- Allow for future use of the outdoors, leave it better than you found it.
- Discover the rewards of responsible recreation.
If you can abide by the rules above, then click the join link and weâll see you on the trail.

For our last Adventure that weekend, assuming our Jeeps are still operational and we have the energy, we will conquer Rocky Gap Badge of Honor Trail on Sunday morning just with Valley Jeepsters.
Last year, we had 5 Valley Jeepsters attending this Adventure and it was an absolute blast. The food, the trails the people, the activities, it was by far THE BEST Club sponsored event Iâve ever attended!!!
Since the Hump N Bump is back to back with Mojave Overlanding Adventure, I will spend the week of November 2nd in Laughlin instead of making a 4-hour drive there and back. I will be staying at the AVI casino. The casino hotel is less than $50/night with taxes during the week! If you plan on doing both Adventures, youâre welcome to join me there. Itâd be a working remote week for me but Iâm usually done by 3:00sh so we can hit couple of trails around Laughlin during the week in late afternoons!

Embark on an unforgettable 2 day off-road journey through the rugged and breathtaking landscapes of the Mojave Desert. Our Overlanding Adventure will take you across 140 miles of remote, unpaved trails, where youâll conquer long sandy washes, rocky passes, and scenic river crossings. Along the way, discover hidden relics of the Old West, Native American petroglyphs, and abandoned outposts that tell the story of pioneers who once braved this untamed land. Get ready to test your skills, soak in the beauty of endless desert vistas, and camp under a sky filled with millions of stars and create memories that will last a lifetime!
Most of the trip is easy but few locations will require four-wheel drive. We will start in Laughlin, NV and finish near Barstow, CA. We will be camping one night on this trip with an optional night at the end of the trail (Afton Campground). Please book accommodations in Laughlin, NV the night before for an early start the next morning! We will be crossing into California, please make sure to follow ALL California rules regarding firearms possession!

This is a multi-day Adventure without access to modern amenities such as bathrooms, food or water. You must be self-sufficient and bring your own supplies! A lot of preparation goes into putting these types of trips together which requires accurate headcount. If you sign up and your plans change, please remove yourself AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.

Join us for an unforgettable Valley Jeepsters Adventure in the stunning Anza-Borrego Desert of California! Weâll be tackling scenic trails, exploring unique desert landscapes, and enjoying off-road camaraderie under wide-open skies. Whether you're a seasoned rock crawler or just looking to explore the backcountry with fellow Valley Jeepsters, this trip promises epic views, challenging terrain, and plenty of good times. Pack your gear, bring plenty of water, and letâs make some memories in one of SoCalâs most iconic off-road destinations!
Anza Borrego is phenomenal this time of the year. The scenery includes sandy washes, narrow canyons with steep walls, mud caves, and sweeping vistas. The average daytime temperatures are in mid-70âs, and the wildflower season is March-April. Weâll be traversing many sandy trails with a few moderately challenging obstacles. For those interested and only if time permits, we will conquer BoH Pinyon Mountain Road.
If you are carrying, please make sure you familiarize yourself with all the related California laws pertaining to this subject!!!
The trails weâll be traversing can be conquered in a stock Jeep with offroad tires. Pinyon Mountain optional trail is level five and would require 2+ inch lift and at least one locker.
