Competitors arrive from a long couple of transit days down from Nevada into the California desert.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When was the last time you used a compass to get anywhere? These days, most of us rely on our GPS, Google Maps or WAZE just to get across town. \u00a0So, when asked to get from one state to another without a digital helper, could you do it? On major highways, sure. Probably. Maybe. But how about from one point of unmarked desert to another? Sounds way tougher, right? \u00a0It is. \u00a0And it\u2019s exactly what a group of female off-road enthusiasts spent 10 days doing in mid-October for the second\u00a0Rebelle Rally.<\/p>\n

The rally is an all women\u2019s navigation off-road event that takes place over 10 days across 6000 km in Nevada and California. No GPS. No cell phones. Just 36 teams of two from 12 states and five countries, a map, a compass, a road book and a lot of gumption. \u00a0Vehicles range from bone-stock to heavily modified, and fall into either the 4×4 or crossover class. Teams consist of a driver and a navigator. Some teams switch off jobs depending on the terrain or the course, but the goal is to play to your strengths.<\/p>\n
