Golden Shovel Awards 2002

The end of the season 2001-02, its getting hot and the last camp out organised by Jon Harbour of Middle East Off-Roader combined with the GOLDEN SHOVEL AWARD which this year was presented to two persons who during the season got rather spectacularly stuck!

Eight vehicles met near Al Hayer and then off to the forest on a route that last year took us THREE hours but this time 30 minutes.

After a bit of driving around and finding a suitable spot overlooking the forest, we decided to have some refreshments whilst agreeing on the site. In the meantime Jon and Gill returned to the main road to meet Philippe and guide him to the site, then there were nine.
