It’s almost October, 2022, and you know what that means? North America’s single biggest rally event is due to kick off in the beautiful Sonora Desert! From October 17 through 22, 2022, competitors on motorcycles or in UTVs, cars, and street-legal four-wheel-drive vehicles will tackle terrain from Hermosillo to San Luis Rio Colorado in Sonora, Mexico.
The event, which organizers bill as “a five-day Dakar-style navigation rally in Mexico’s pristine Sonora Desert,” is seen by many as a proving ground for other international cross-country rallies. Although many of the most dramatic photography involves dunes, there’s a lot more to the terrain than just that. From mountains to washes to beaches and more, there are a wide variety of challenges to explore along the way.
