Members' Rigs: Lance "Moondust" Wilson
|
We didn't know why his Jeep is called Wiley but we do know why we affectionately call Lance "Moondust".
It's because on our very 1st trip, the Devil's Highway, after Lance came thru the Moondust area of the road without side windows and only half doors without uppers, Lance was covered from head to toe with a very good coating of powdery dust.
"Wiley" is a 95 YJ that Lance bought stock. Since then he has lifted it 2" via HD shackles and 33" BFGs on Rockcrawler rims. As with many Jeeps, "Wiley" is always a work in progress as Lance continues to expand the envelope on his off-road adventures.
As with many people here in AZ, Lance came here from elsewhere, the midwest to be more specific. He bought "Wiley" just 3 weeks before moving here 4 years ago because "he knew that this was going to be an awesome place to do some off-roading". Lance joined the AZVJC and did a couple of runs with them and a few on his own (uh, uh, uh, never go wheeling in the desert alone !) to get to know AZ and his Jeep better.
In the fall of 2006 Lance was thinking about getting together some others to do a trip on the Devil's Highway and found us, the beginnings of what is now the Jeep Expeditions group. Lance is one of our original members and has since gone on our Monument Valley and Kit Carson/Mojave Desert Expeditions in 2007. He is one of the planning members for our 2008 Devil's Highway anniversary trip and has also signed up for our fall 2008 Canyon De Chelly trip. "I know I will be going on many others in 2008 and beyond because this unique group of Jeep enthusiasts is the greatest group of people to wheel with ! "
