20 SUVs and pickups. 20 automotive writers. One grand prize winner. Now in its 30th year, Mudfest is a two-day competition put on by the Northwest Automotive Writers Association. Held at The Ridge Motorsports Park in Shelton, WA, NWAPA members judge on and off-road capability, value, features, cargo room, efficiency and technology. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.
Thanks to The Ridge Motorsports Park, Alderbrook Lodge and Spa, member of NWAPA, and all of the manufacturers reps that traveled to Shelton, WA.
Also, special thanks to the staff of Page One and DriveShop, Aaron Hansen, Erin Kemp, John Vincent, Nik Miles and Jim Redden for their hours of volunteer time. And a shout out to Martin Campbell, Tom Frisch and Doug Berger for additional photography
